Add sexy sparkle to your shoulders this holiday season with Elite by Margarita jeweled bra straps. Adorned with genuine Swarovski Austrian crystals. The straps are available in four distinct styles: single, double, four strand and oval, ranging from $50-$75 retail per pair.

"We've taken the concept of beautiful jewelry and tailored it for women's shoulders," says Margarita Reis, designer for Margarita Couture and the new Elite Strap Collection.

"Elite jewelry straps make an ideal gift choice for everyday, holiday and Valentine's Day. They are a glamorous step above our popular fashion bra strap collections; perfect to peek through a tank and dress up jeans or wear with an evening dress. This season is all about sexy sparkle, and these new straps are guaranteed to keep all eyes on you."

Elite jewelry straps easily hook-on to any convertible style bra and feature over 13 inches of crystals and four inches of adjustable silver jewelry chain that is hypoallergenic and nickel free.

"Our clients can expect to get a comfortable fit that can instantly be adjusted to suit all shoulders," says Jeff Reis, Director of Marketing.

"We like to think of bra straps as an extension of your fashion closet," says Margarita Reis. "Fashion straps are fashion accessories. They essentially become part of your outfit for better or worse. I was watching an award show just the other day and caught a well-known celebrity sporting dirty bra straps underneath a beautiful evening dress - that is a major fashion don't!"

The Elite straps are available at www.brastraps.com.

India is one of the few places in the world where artisans still produce hand-spun cloth with exceptional quality and variety - yet much of this exquisite material never makes it out of its home villages. Indigo Handloom was founded to build a bridge between the ancient craft of weaving luxury stoles and wraps and the art of modern clothing design.

The most extraordinary of these wraps and stoles are made from Muga (MOO-gah), also known as, "the Golden Silk." Coveted by kings and royalty for hundreds of years, Muga is the world's most exclusive fabric and was cultivated by royal decree of the Kings of Assam. Made in just one tiny valley in the Indian countryside, Muga fibers are harvested in their wild state only twice a year.

Unlike other silks, Muga's natural color is gold - it is never dyed or processed. In contrast to the behavior of other fabrics, Muga's lush gold color actually increases with washing. Worshipped as a symbol of Lakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth, Muga is said to bring good fortune to the wearer and is a prized gift for weddings.

Each Indigo Handloom stole is as individual and unique as the person who wears it. 2005 Oscar nominee for Best Actress, Catalino Sandino Moreno, star of "Maria Full of Grace," is a fan! She wore a Muga stole to her NY movie premiere.

Wraps and stoles are available from $65.00 to $350.00. For more information, visit www.indigohandloom.com.

The luxe embellishment trend is here to stay. It can be seen it in crystals, studs and stones. It's a fashion-savvy woman's way of taking something ordinary, adding some fabulous sparkling embellishments and turning it into one-of-a-kind fashion art. Leigh-Ann Kline of Leigh-Ann Kline Handbags has done just that by creating unique handbags that are attention-getting pieces of art designed with personality and feminine flair.

Kline offers a fresh new approach to handbag design by creating unique styles bursting like summer bouquets of Asian lilies, that are pretty enough to walk down the aisle with, and Funky styles using bows, chunky antique inspired brooches and crystal embroidery. Explosive color combinations and unusual pattern mixes like "toile de jouy" with hot pink trim complemented by Swarovski crystal beaded handles. A look sure to be seen walking down the red carpet includes billowy ostrich feathers dripping off gold satin evening bags with silk ribbons and adorned with superb combinations of flowers arranged with the skill of a floral designer.

"I wanted to design handbags for style-conscious fashionistas seeking extraordinary handbags not found in the traditional marketplace," says Kline. "My bags can be worn with everything from blue jeans to evening gowns." Because Kline's floral bags are designed with the skill of a professional floral designer, brides looking for something unique have commissioned her to design handbags for their bridal party to carry down the aisle instead of traditional floral bouquets. "I love to design beautiful things that make people happy," says Kline, "For me, that is the greatest reward."
