SOCKS WITH SOUL: MEET HANSEL FROM BASEL
Don't have a 2008 resolution yet?
Here's one: Add a little whimsy to your life.
Here's another: Don't be a stick in the mud -- or at least in the sand.
You can start the process with a pair of make-you-smile socks or tights from Hansel from Basel, a white hot hosiery line based in L.A. and masterminded by one of the grooviest gals you'll ever meet, Hannah Byun.
According to Hannah: "The essence of Hansel from Basel is to design functional items with tasteful yet quirky accents to get us through the toughest of days. It is meant to be a spirited line full of light-hearted jest."
Barneys New York and Anthropologie have already hopped on the Hansel from Basel bandwagon, along with hipster boutiques creaturesofcomfort.us and NYC's Opening Ceremony. Prices range from $28-$50.

It is really amazing what a new pair of tights can do for your wardrobe. I was sick of my same old dresses this season, so I went out and bought some fun tights like the one's above. I feel like I have so many more choices now. Thanks for the head's up on this find Katrina!
