With that in mind, the Muse Tote exudes uptown sophistication and is a wonderful choice. The light leather color makes this a natural for spring and summer nights out. The liner is satin ensuring that your precious hands may never touch a low-end fabric again. The padlock keeps frenemies out and your private possessions… well, private.

Glamorous without being ostentatious, this tote is proof that Yves Saint Laurent is always the smart choice. You can find the Yves Saint Laurent Muse Leather Tote Bag (Only $1,920) at Forzieri

Yesterday was a big day at my house. Why? Because I stored away the skis for the season and brought out the golf clubs. That’s right, friend, Winter is gone, Spring is here and Summer is right around the corner. That means it is time to update the golf wardrobe with some new threads.

For starters, I love the Navy & Light Blue Grid Check Golf Shorts from Bobby Jones. Comfortable and fashionable, you can tee these up at a conservative country club, or dress them down with a rock star shirt for weekends in the Hamptons. A solid choice for the months ahead, they are 100% cotton for breathability and style. Be the ball, Danny.

With the “Paris Hilton Backlash” in full effect, there seems to be fewer and fewer high quality, designer dog carrier options available for small dogs these days. Plus the bags that are out there look… well, like dog carriers.

That’s why I love the Take Me Along Getaway Dog Carrier so much. It looks like a purse, but it has all of the comfortable options that you want in a carrier. The metal accents are gorgeous and there are plenty of pockets for storing dog treats, dog bags and of course, your cell phone. There is plenty of room and ventilation for your furry best friend. The interior pet safety strap is a nice plus and the berber mat is machine washable. A stunning dog carrier that any girl would want – whether she has a dog or not!

Okay, let’s face it. Top Gun was a little cheesy, but that doesn’t mean you need to ditch your dream of one day flying a fighter plane. In fact, now you can actually purchase a package to be a Fighter Pilot for a Day. And yes, Maverick, this is the real deal.

Working with a skilled, trained instructor, you start with a full briefing on formations, tracking, maneuvers and other essential fighter information. Then you don the flight suit and board the Marchetti SF260, a current production, Italian-built fighter aircraft. Comfortably aboard your own Ghost Rider, you then get to actually track another fighter plane and get to engage the enemy.

Feel the need? The need for speed? Then you and your buddy Goose need to seriously check this out. According to the folks at Cloud 9 Living, the thrill is unbelievable:

“Imagine yourself scanning the skies in a real military aircraft in search of an enemy airplane. You spot the bogey at 3 o’clock, break turn hard and the fight’s on. Up, down, and around.”

The entire flight is filmed for you to take and keep for years to come. I can’t think of a better gift for my adrenaline junkie nephew!

Hand-crafted with fluid edges, the monkey pod wave stool projects a rounded airiness that conjures images of the sea. The wave’s dished trough provides a comfortable, roomy seat that gently slopes up on either side.

I have our set in our media room. I love storing art books inside, and they can be easily moved about as occasional chairs. The Wave Stools are a great piece of modern furniture that I heartily recommend.
