    There's at least one in every group -- the girl who loves all things designer. Maybe it's you, or maybe there's more than one fashionista in your pack of friends, but no matter how many pals you have with high-end taste, you can't simply afford to break the bank for a bunch of big-name big purchases in the midst of gift-shopping mayhem. The solution isn't always to go the Forever 21 route (though as a bargain shopper I'm always a fan) -- you'd be surprised how many cute holiday-friendly designer trinkets you can get for under $200! For example, this cute heart key ring may come in a blue Tiffany box, but it really doesn't cost an arm and a leg! And cozy winter-festive gifts like these Michael Kors gloves and these adorable Burberry earmuffs prove that designer names can be practical for the season and aren't just for show! Browse through the slideshow for 10 gift ideas that could make even Anna Wintour smile!

    Thanksgiving is this week, followed closely by the season of gift giving and package sending. The stars predict a little bit of chaos for us all, but that's not hard to believe with all the planning that usually takes place this time of year. Holiday cheer and chaos can be fun-filled and festive, but it can also put a pretty big hole in the savings funds. Before you make a mad dash for the stores and lose yourself in a Christmas shopping debacle, treat yourself to something nice and practical! Star alignment says that we're all going to be spending at least a little on others (especially uber-generous Pisces), but let's not forget about our own needs and joys, either! A cute new wallet is just what you need to stylishly keep all your money in one place and is the perfect piece to bring along while shopping for friends and family. Click on the slideshow to see what the stars have decided is your winning wallet! And check out what the stars have to say about the perfect pocketbook for your mom or a best friend, too.

    This holiday season, give the gift of perfect brows (or at least the resources to achieve them) to your dearest beauty-obsessed friend. Tweezerman not only boasts the most popular tweezers known to man (a little on the pricey side but definitely worth the splurge!), but now in time for the holidays, the brow experts have just released a collection of limited edition tools, perfect for the makeup maven on your list. This particular winter-inspired style, the Polka Dot Slant Tweezers, are festively cute in red and white, and are encrusted with Swarovski crystals for that extra twinkle. If you're going to opt for a pair of high-end tweezers, you might as well go all out, right?

    Got a lipgloss addict on your list of gal pals to shop for this holiday season? Search no more -- Stila has just released the ultimate gift set for anyone who loves sampling their famous brush-on lip glaze at the makeup counter but just can't bring themselves to spend more than $20 a pop! The Lip Glaze Holiday Collection consists of eight slightly-shrunken versions of their gloss for just $25! Four of the colors are best-sellers -- from Kitten (golden caramel) to winter-festive Cranberry (deep red) -- while the other four are brand new! Eight stellar shades at just a fraction of their $80 value? Sounds like a deal I need to jump on, stat! Of course, I should probably hold off on shopping for myself until after I start shopping for my friends and family...
