The Boot

We would love to see the goodies Santa leaves in a stocking like this one. It may not don a stitch of red or green, but it's certain to get the jolly guy's attention. It's part of Gaga's Workshop, through which 25 percent of all sales benefit the Born This Way Foundation, a nonprofit designed to empower youths. Stiletto stocking, $65, Barneys New York

In the Spirit

We love all of the scents the beauty industry comes up with this time of year. It's such a great way to get in the holiday spirit, while spoiling yourself. The Body Shop's Candied Ginger Collection combines sweet and spicy scents. Lip balm, body butter, hand cream and more are available. The Body Shop's Candied Ginger Collection, $6-$18, The Body Shop

Step it Up

Even the bottle for Avon's new fragrance, Step Into Sexy, is seductive. The Oriental floral scent features notes of black raspberry, freesia, rosewood, butterfly orchid, cashmeran and orris root. All blend to create a fragrance for the "woman who aspires to be her most sensual self." Avon's Step Into Sexy, $28, Avon representatives (find one at avon.com)
