What are we left with come January? Feeling cold and full, mostly.
1 A. Bar-clay’s cozy cashmere Kate scarf is generously sized—perfect for warmth and obscuring the five-pound “gift” that gingerbread left on your midsection. $550, abarclay-designs.com
If, by golly, this is the year you lose that five, head to Ona for the 2 Ina Crystal Detox White Gold bath salts, which claim to brew a soak so intense, it’s on par with a three-day juice cleanse. $85, onaatlanta.com
If you’d rather just do the juice, 3 Roots Juices will deliver kits ITP should you be in a post-Christmas coma. $150 for three days, rootspressedjuices.com
But nothing suffers more than my skin this time of year, so I’m sneaking up to the new Cosmetic Market at Avalon for some of their exclusive lotions and potions, like the 4 Therapy Systems Intensive Therapy Rx. Promised yourself you’d get organized? $62, thecosmeticmarket.com
If you’re old-school, there’s no prettier 5 planner than this one by Graphic Image. $98, bdjeffries.com
If you’re more the syncing type, grab 6 Form Function Form’s new iPhone 6 wallet, which packs your everyday carry into a single case. $88, formfunctionform.com
Stash it in a printed 7 clutch by Very Fine South—the seasonal shades won’t look out of place in a wintertime wardrobe. From $120, veryfinesouth.com
In preparation for Snowpocalypse, my plans include a 8 Moncler puffer $2,145, moncler.com
and 9 Le Chameau Chasseur boots, because good enough for Kate Middleton is good enough for me. $489 by special order, orvis.com
Speaking of people with nice manners, that reminds me: thank-you notes. Because I’m buying in bulk, now’s not the time for fancy. Waiting on Martha has cute, reasonably priced 10 paper that gets the sentiment across. And hey, happy 2015, Atlanta! $24, shopwaitingonmartha.com
