As a woman, I love shoes and I love almost every kind of shoe out there! I love high-heels, sandals, flats, clogs, sneakers, flip-flops, you name it…I love it! With that said, my feet don’t always love my choices in footwear! Over the years I …
You all know how I am about bags and purses. Well, one of the styles that I never really tried before was canvas messenger bags. I like the style well enough but I tended to think of these as more of a younger style or …
Novica is a fabulous website that has a bold mission and purpose to it’s existence. In partnership with National Geographic, Novica was created to bring artisans from around the world to one spot where their talents and gifts can be shared with the world.

Novica has been working very hard this year and they have brought together some fabulous items for the Holiday Gift giving season. With the new Novica Gift Finder section on their website, you can find gifts easily and ship them wherever they need to go quickly. Their unique gifts are simply amazing. The hardest part is not finding an awesome gift, it is selecting the gift. There is so many gorgeous things to choose from, you could take hours in the site and not see everything!
I love the way Novica has the shop set up for you. You can shop by price point, by who is is for Like Mom, Wife, Hostess, Dad and so on. You can also find great gifts by personality or even my region of the artist. The options are endless and so are the items they are offering. Everything is pictured clearly and beautifully. These earrings I am in love with! Aren’t they just gorgeous? This is just one of the hundreds of fabulous items that you will find in their gift finder.
If you are still looking for something unique and one of a kind, you have to come by Novica and see what awesome items the craftsmen and women have been creating to sell. You will not only be buying top quality products, but changing the way of life for that crafter.

In the past, I have reviewed a few other products from FRAAS and today, I get to review another one. Before I get to the review, let me give you some company information.
About FRAAS: Scarf producer V. Fraas (corporate owner of the FRAAS brand) celebrates more than 130 years in business. Ever since its foundation in 1880 by Valentin Fraas, the world leader for mufflers and shawls has thrived and advanced under the control of his descendants—a remarkable feat in this transitory world. But V. Fraas has more to celebrate than mere longevity: it is a forward looking company that continues to expand at a quick pace, and it is continuously implementing new ideas and concepts. From its bases in New York, Paris, London, Wüstenselbitz, Toronto and Shanghai, V. Fraas’ design teams travel to major shows and forecasting seminars throughout the globe to identify new trends and develop products that are perfectly attuned to fashion and customer demand.
The company’s research team, meanwhile, works unceasingly to develop and discover new yarns, fabric and methods of manufacturing products that are of truly outstanding quality. Truly internationally oriented, the company boasts sales subsidiaries and satellite offices in New York, Toronto, London, Paris, Berlin, Denmark, Italy, India, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo. Products are distributed worldwide via department and specialty stores as well as online retailers.
My Review: The company sent me a pair of their new FRAAS Tech Gloves to check out for all of you. I was really excited to review these because I own an iPad, iPhone and an iPod. All of these electronic devices have touch screens, including my one laptop computer. I needed some gloves so that when I use my electronic devices, I can use them easier and not leave sticky fingerprints all over my screen.
The new Touch Screen Compatible Gloves that FRAAS has to offer come in 3 chic options, with each retailing at about $30.00 per pair. (The long scrunch, the ruffle and the bow styles). There are 22 different total options in all of the fabulous and fun colors.
I received a pair of the new Touch Screen Gloves in a pretty gray color and in the ruffle style. These are light-weight knit gloves that hug your hands but do not fit too tightly. They don’t constrict your hands movement at all. I love how feminine they look!
They are made from an acrylic/cotton/polyester/metallic blend which feels super soft against your skin. The gloves feature the tech finger tips that are so well-matched to the glove, that they are almost invisible when you look at them.
I have been using these gloves for well over a week now when I use my electronic devices and I couldn’t be happier with them! Matter of fact, I would love a few more pairs in a variety of colors to go with my outerwear and jackets!
These gloves would make a fabulous holiday gift for anyone on your gift-giving list who uses touch screen devices. For about $30 a pair, they are super affordable too! Great gift for mom, your sister, best friend, niece, grandmother, you name it! A great gift for any chic and savvy gal on your list!
You can check out all of the wonderful products that FRAAS has to offer by visiting their web site. You can find these gloves at speciality stores throughout the country and on FRAAS and Amazon.
