hot or not : hand soaps
WHAT’S HOT:
Soaprocks hand soaps from Scents + Sprays. Gorgeously wrapped agate soaps in a panoply of colors will always be well received by the hostess who has it all.
WHAT’S NOT:
The world’s scariest ever severed-hand-bearing-a-baby-buddha hand soap. I can’t make this stuff up, y’all. Lauren already has a serious issue with the number of standing solo hands seen around Market and in decor enclaves everywhere, so we made this one her desktop wallpaper immediately, just a little inter-office hazing.

hot or not : app smorgasbord
WHAT’S HOT:
{cukes/crostini/blackberries/scallops}
über-thoughtful hors d’oeuvres displayed exquisitely and alone (by type) so that they stand strong on their own
WHAT’S NOT:
biggest foodie pet peeve: jumbled hors d’oeuvres tossed willy-nilly (or even neatly lined up) with each other- like wee summer campers on their first day forced into some aggressive game of red rover, red rover

Hot or Not : Ear Studs
WHAT’S HOT:
Bauble Bar rose gold talon stud earrings. Yes to studs in your life, on your furniture, and in your ears. (Ha). We love the return to 80s earring simplicity, with an ’00s rocker edge. Nail-turned-stud sits just fine with me.
WHAT’S NOT:
Third ear earrings. Baby ears sitting on mama ears. Human body parts-slash-studs may be the stuff of my nightmares. Please refrain from the Silence of the Lambs-ness of it all. {Thanks to my dear friend Emilie for spying such a HONO!}
