SABRINA

Winters in the Caribbean and summers in the Mediterranean. Designer Sabrina Crippa’s clothing and accessories line, Taj by Sabrina reflects the glamorous, nomadic, jet-set lifestyle of women who are never in one place very long. Launched in July, ’06, the line includes dresses, tops, and shorts as well as pants, scarves and handmade sandals from Italy.

Taj by Sabrina’s clothing is made of fine cottons, silks and linens and delight in sparkling, bright colors, some beading and flirty designs. Their sandals incorporate crystals and semi-precious stones.

Moving to Miami from Milan where she worked in fashion, Sabrina now has one store on South Beach’s Ocean Drive and will soon open in a second location but the line is also sold in over 400 boutiques worldwide, as well as Harvey Nichols in London, Dubai and Saudi Arabia and Bloomingdale’s in Dubai. The line retails between $280- $475. www.tajbysabrina.com

ELIN'S STYLE

Elin Nordegren's style is certainly more conservative than the kabillion mistresses who fell out of husband Tiger's closet recently. Trendy, sporty, laidback, even boyish, Elin also knows how to ratchet it up when she's attending glam events or elegant dinners. And she's certainly inspired us to buy more sunglasses. Wow, she owns a lot. Take a look....

CLIPA

For $25 the Clipa handbag holder really gives you your money’s worth. Designed to hold and handle those big bags we all love, the Clipa also doubles as a bracelet or bangle(!).

Ideal in restaurants, bars, outdoor cafes and especially bathrooms where a hook isn’t always available, take the Clipa off your wrist and then use it to hang your bag. What a great idea…. We love it. Clipa’s unique design also allows it to be used in many other places too, including theaters, outdoor sporting events, concerts, airplane lavatories, even poolside. Tested to equal 10 years of daily use and able to carry 45 pounds, Clipa retails for $24.95. Order it at, www.clipa.us or (888) 804-0661.
