    Give The Gift Of Hermes For The Holidays!

    The first thing that comes to mind when we hear Hermes is Birkin. Or Kelly. Or waiting list. Or...Posh Spice. But there's much more to the Parisian luxury brand than virtually unattainable handbags named after beautiful actresses and genuine royalty, and with the holiday season in full swing, there's no better time to explore the world of Hermes for yourself, or for someone else. Need a gift for your mother, grandmother, or stylish-beyond-her-years friend? An Hermes silk scarf is your answer. So timeless and versatile, they can be tied on to a handbag, worn around ponytail or as a hair scarf, or looped around the neck any time of year. Hermes fragrances carry the same intrigue as their elusive accessory counterparts- they're not nearly as ubiquitous as other designer perfumes, but fall under the same price range, making them the perfect gift for the girl who won't spritz just any scent on her wrist. Hermes jewelry and watches blend classic leather with ornate styling for pieces that have signature appeal, ensuring they'll be loved for years to come, and to bring some Hermes into your home, check out Bluefly's tabletop collection. And if nothing but a Birkin will do, let us introduce you to Portero.com, where you can bid on genuine Birkin handbags- complete with heftier than hefty price tags, of course, but you already knew that. Click the slideshow for ways to give the gift of Hermes this holiday season.

Bring high fashion into your home by investing in a piece from your favorite label's home decor collection. That's right, a growing number of fashion designers are dabbling in interior design, and translating their runway style into fashionable home furnishings and accessories. Not only do these pieces exude the designers' distinct styles and tastes, but they're created to look chic in a variety of settings and for much longer than one season. Dine on Missoni, curl up in Ralph Lauren bedding, or sit pretty on a decadent Versace chair all in the comforts of your home.
