Lucky Ring
The next time you cash in at the tables, put a little aside for a piece of jewelry that symbolizes your win. Each Lord Griffon piece is meant to serve as a good luck charm. Suzie Lederer, wife of professional poker player Howard Lederer, created the line. She knows a thing or two about good luck in a casino. Lord Griffon Poker Series ring, $180.20, M.J. Christensen Diamonds
Fine Fragrance
It's an old favorite revamped for modern times. The number 19 was chosen because perfumer Gabrielle Chanel's birthday was Aug. 19. She called this fragrance her signature scent. Now it's updated with a floral bouquet, green woods and iris. Fans will recognize the scent still, but appreciate its modern makeover. Chanel No. 19 Poudre, $80 for 1.7 oz., Saks Fifth Avenue
Mad Women
You love the show, you love the characters and you love the clothes. "Mad Men" on AMC has made vintage clothing cool on a much broader scale. If you love the clothes but still can't bring yourself to wear someone else's duds, Banana Republic has a solution in its Mad Men collection. Time to channel your inner Betty. Banana Republic "Mad Men" printed silk pleated dress, $140, Banana Republic
Hats Off
If you can pull off a good hat, we suggest picking up one of these as soon as possible. The floppy fedora spruces up a fall ensemble like no other. Rock it with denim and knee-high boots or a feminine, flouncy dress. You'll feel instant swagger.
