Simple and elegant, these red rim serving bowls are a great choice for holiday entertaining because they don't go over-the-top with Christmas imagery, but have just enough color to still be seasonally appropriate. It is not, however, so dramatic that the bowls would look inappropriate at any other time of the year. They are not microwave safe, but as they are made of glass, the bowls could be used for cooking and prep work, as well as for serving. Sold in a set of three that includes small, medium and large bowls, the organic ellipse shapes look good even when the bowls are not in use. Price: $100.

(Red) is a charitable effort that is designed to raise money for the Global Fund to support HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention, especially in underfunded and underprivileged areas of the world. Armani is one of the designers participating in the program and his newest addition to the Armani Red line is an Inspi(Red) Watch. The watch has a 43mm stainless steel case with a coin-raised bezel and a leather strap. The strap is available in either black with red contrast stitching or red with black (pictured). It is a unisex timepiece and has an extra-large numerical display for easy readability. It is available in all Armani stores and the retail price should be $225.

The Fjord Armchair is Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola's take on Arne Jacobsen's egg chair with two primary differences. The first, and most obvious, is that the Fjord chair has an asymmetrical back, presumably inspired by the curving and asymmetrical cliffs that make up fjords, though the similarity is most apparent if the chair is viewed at an angle. The second difference is that this chair has no real armrests, while the original has curving, low-slung ones. The chair is upholstered in red wool with a subtle white contrast stitching over injection molded foam cushioning. Price: $3,300.

In a glossy, rich red color that suits its name, the Smooch Bag by Tano adds more than a little flair to any outfit. In fact, the funky handbag is a great alternative to the more plain-jane daily totes that so many women carry, though you might want to save it for weekend outings, rather than bring it in to the office. The large leather tote has a soft and slightly deconstructed look. It has a huge exterior pocket, accented with silver buttons, and diagonal seams that set it apart from more plainly designed bags. With a short drop from the comfortable strap, the tote tucks neatly under your arm and is easy to carry. Price: $218.

Not all ladies have time to lunch. Some don't even have time to stop in for a latte while they're on the go from meeting to meeting or party to party. Bodum's Lipstick Flask really resembles a giant tube of fire-engine red lipstick, its streamlined, high-gloss exterior giving way to an interior full of what busy women need most: caffeine.

Ok. It doesn't have to be full of coffee. In fact, we think that it is very stylish all on its own. How many of your friends have a tube of lipstick this big, after all? The vacuum-sealed thermos will keep up to 34-ounces of whatever you fill it with perfectly secure - hot or cold - for hours. And, of course, it will look great doing it. Price: $29.99.
