Rainbow Snake Clutch, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

I love clutches anyway, and although this one is so bright as to be bordering on obnoxious I think it could really work as an awesome way to beat both the doldrums of winter and the doldrums of a bland evening outfit. Shades of fuchsia, teal, and gold make this Rainbow Snakeskin Clutch by Jimmy Choo stand out from the crowd, while the structured tube design keeps things simple. It comes accented with a golden clasp at the top and a gold fabric lining, plus there are solid colors available if you prefer. £735

Rainbow Room To Close Rainbow Grill

Filed under: Dining

A New York City institution is the latest victim of the economic crisis. The Rainbow Room that overlooks midtown Manhattan will be closing its Italian-themed Rainbow Grill restaurant as of January 12. The bar, banquet space and the weekend dinner-dancing sessions will continue on the 65th floor. The restaurant is part of the Cipriani restaurant empire and the move is seen as helping to protect what remains of the Rainbow Room. The restaurant has an excellent view but the prices are high (the pre-theater menu was $70 a person and a rib eye steak was $53). Around 30 to 40 of the Rainbow Room's 120 workers will lose their jobs, Gawker has a retrospective featuring shots of the venue in more glamorous days.

Andino Rainbow Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

The Andino Rainbow Bag is a fun, casual purse with a much bolder look than most of the pricier designer bags that we see here. It features a vibrantly colored, hand-woven shoulder strap that is accented with small pom poms where it joins into the body of the bag. The bag itself is made of whipstitched leather in contrasting shades of brown. The bag measures only 13.5"L x 9"H and has a magnetic snap closure at the top. It would look great as a complement to a cute bathing suit/beach outfit or just for strolling around somewhere tropical where you don't need a "serious" bag. Price: $175.

Forget formality and tradition this holiday season and infuse a little color into Hanukkah celebrations. The Amazing Technicolor Menorah is handmade by designer Tamara Baskin out of strips of fused glass. Each piece will be unique because of the way they are made, but each will have a brilliant rainbow appearance regardless. It will infuse a little bit of fun to the holiday, which would be a nice addition to the celebrations if you host a big party or have kids that get bored easily with tradition. The piece measures 14.5" L x 8" H. Price: $200.

Phuzion Tower Vase

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

Layers of clear and colored glass are carefully created and because fused together to create the many layers of this handcrafted Phuzion Tower Vase . Because of the method used to make the vases, each piece may contain tiny bubbles, use different colors or have other minor "imperfections" that make each vase completely unique. The rainbow of colors means that the vase should complement any long-stemmed flowers, regardless of their color, but white flowers (such as the one pictured) are clearly the best choice for showcasing the glass alone. The vases measure 14" H x 2.5" W x 2.5" L and are hand-signed by artist Ofteo Quagliatae. Price: $390.
