I always thought of Nina Ricci's L'Air du Temps as my mother's perfume (that iconic dove bottle sat atop her dressing table for years). And as a fan of the French house's young, visionary designer Oliver Theyskens, I was thrilled to see the 60-year-old fragrance get an update. Same sensual scent, but in an extravagantly gussied-up Couture Edition bottle ($53), modeled after one of Theyskens's flirty frocks. THIS MUD'S FOR YOU

KISSABLE COACH The new It accessory from Coach? Playful, monogrammed lip glosses ($22 each) in a trio of wearable, nonsticky shades. SPOT ON
