It’s become a tradition for me to do a year-end round up of my favorite fashion accessory picks from the year.  I’ve got great designs, hot celebrity styles… and possibly even a fashion goof-up as well!

in no particular order - but with a sense of fun, here you go :-)

• Beyonce’s (or I should say “Sasha’s”) robot glove is definitely a style goof - at least to me…
• I think Michelle Obama is ushering in an era of elegant and yet low-key style to the White House.
• Sarah Jessica Parker’s hat at the London premier of the Sex and the City movie was another fashion moment I’d prefer to forget from 2008.
• Don’t have an Oscar-worthy budget?  Fake it with these fabulous jewels!
• Christian Lacroix made me drool with gilded dragonflies on the toes of his shoes.
• I recommend treating yourself to classic and timeless accessories - especially if you can find them on sale!
• Launching a new jewelry blog was definitely a high point of my year :-)
• Her Accessories celebrated prom with a series of budget prom accessories - all of the sparkle, none of the credit card pain afterwards…
• This purse certainly doesn’t fall into the budget category, but the Judith Leiber cupcake purse that Katy Perry carried at the MTV Awards is just too cute not to include!
• I celebrated the Twelve Days of Shopping - with my annual Her Accessories Christmas accessories gift guide.
• Hush Puppies new design team is making me drool - I adore these boots!
• Steve Madden made me go “hmmm….” with his “Bukled” shoe - see what you think…
• Let’s finish this round-up off with indie designer Island Cowgirl Jewelry - whimsical silver jewelry with a funky edge.

Do you have a favorite Her Accessories post from the year?  Share it in the comments :-)

I’m going hunting today to track down my “perfect” calendar.  I’ve browsed online and have found several suitable candidates - but I’ll have to make my final decision once I actually have them in my hot little hands.

My top pick so far?  The “365 Days of Handbags” - I had the 2008 version of this calendar last year and I loved it:

Or do you prefer mini calendars?  There’s a Handbags calendar for you!

Or maybe you prefer page-a-day tear-off calendars?  You’re in luck!  The “Handbags Gallery” desktop calendar should fill the bill:

And the there are the shoe calendars…

“365 Days of Shoes” 2009 calendar.

I have the feeling that every room in my house may end up with it’s own calendar this year…

I’d like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah… or however you celebrate the winter - I hope it’s a lovely one!

I’m taking a couple of days off, but I’ll return this weekend with fresh goodies and wonderful finds…

Once again, she’s paired a natural material more commonly used to make chairs - with a sleek and sexy metallic leather.

The leather has been woven through the rattan to create the “Tortola Kei” handheld shopper tote.

I wonder if I can convince Santa Claus to leave one under the tree for me…

But, wait a minute - turn around and check out the heel!

Yummy, yummy, yummy!

Of course, it’s completely impractical for winter in my neck of the woods, while we’re suffering through a deep freeze…   But, come on, don’t those shoes just make you smile?
