Now available at HUB Clothing at Scottsdale Fashion Square, Falling Whistles is a line of necklace whistles memorializing the child soldiers of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Inspired by a fact-finding trip by two Americans, these whistles represent the untold numbers of kids who are among the five million who have been killed in Congo’s long-running civil war. Called whistle-blowers, some of these tiny warriors are too small to even carry a gun, and are forced to the frontlines armed with nothing more than a whistle and used as human shields for the older fighters.

Hanging just over the heart, these gunmetal gray Falling Whistles retail for $44, with proceeds going to restore the lives of war-affected children in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Great gift or “piece for peace”. Learn more at www.fallingwhistles.com.

Models showing off the Global Glam collection!

I stopped by The W Hotels “The Store” last week for a little peek at their Global Glam collection of clothing,  accessories and home decor inspired by 5 of the newest W Hotels around the world – South Beach, Santiago, Hong Kong, Istanbul and Downtown NYC, during their “Sip, Shop and Soak-In the Fashionable Scene” event!

What a great little place to shop for the latest trends from LA and New York’s favorite boutique designers including Amanda Uprichard, Pleasure Doing Business, La Rok, Prairie, Tart, Rebecca Beeson, Patterson J. Kincaid, Wink – The W’s exclusive brand, Michael Kors, Ray Bans, Seychelles Shoes (one of my favorite affordable brands) and more. And the Global Glam influence throughout the store is uniquely fabulous!

Not only are the women’s fashions haute, but there’s a little something for the men, children and gifts too!

If you’re headed to the fashion show tomorrow night or just in for dinner or cocktails with friends, stop in The Store. And now through Christmas, bring in an unwrapped toy for “Toys for Tots” and receive 20% off your purchase!

These are a few of my favorite things…for holiday and everyday!

Gorgeous beaded skirt

Dolce Vita Studded heels

Seychelles Booties

The $50 and table - lots of great gifts!

Adorable headbands

Lots of fun tops and jeans from Rich and Skinny

A fabulous read - at any age!
