Relaunch of ‘Tuff Scent’ Scented Nail Polish

Reno, Nevada (November 29th, 2010) – Lisa Arnbrister and 18 year old daughter, Sylvana Barbash, have relaunched ‘Tuff Scent’ scented nail polish and this time they’ve added a charitable edge. The brand which has been previously carried by reputable stores such as Sephora, Nordstrom’s, Saks fifth Avenue, Fred Segal, Planet Blue and so on, will now donate $1.00 of every bottle sold to breast cancer awareness in a commemorative effort to support the cure. “Scented nail polish has a fun twist, you can apply it, smell it and it brings a smile to your face,” says Barbash, whom originally gave her mother the idea while coloring her finger nails with scented markers as a young child. The mother daughter duo have not only set their brand apart by giving each polish an original scent but they have also given the new line affirmative names such as “Faith”, “Hope”, “Believe” and “Dream”. 20 new colors/scents, which retail for $18.00, are available now at the company website www.shopfinenfunky.com.

‘Tuff Scent’ was originally founded in 1996 by Lisa Arnbrister. The scented polish became an overnight global sensation retailing at 2,000 stores worldwide. The line quickly developed an “A List” celebrity following and has been featured on everything from Oprah, Good Morning America and Fox News to In Style, Vogue, W, and Cosmopolitan just to name a few.

Tuff Scent Water Collection

With the relaunch of this line, its hard to refocus on the up and coming fashion week. At least we know our nails will look (and smell) as good as our style. These nail polishes are too good to pass on, check them out on the Tuff Scent website tuffscent.com, or buy them from shopfinenfunky.com!

STOCKING STUFFERS THAT EVERYONE LOVES BUT WONT BREAK THE BANK

As a kid and a teenager I remember my mom filling my stocking with pajamas (that was always a given), socks, soaps, little trinkets, and ..... candy. Well, it seemed great at the time, but as I was cleaning my room when I moved out I found two stockings under my bed, still full of broken trinkets, spoiled soaps, and stiff candy. My point here is, that even though those things are great in moderation, most of them end up becoming unused and a waste of money. This idea lead me to think of some great stocking stuffers that wont go to waste and aren't too expensive.

HANKY PANKYS

As I walked around Fine N Funky, I looked for things that I may need, or that would be of good use to me in some way. The first stocking stuffer I found was good ol' Hanky Panky underwear. No women should go without a pair of these in their lifetime. The different fits and various styles are sure to appeal to any women, and are cheap enough to buy multiple pairs. Although this particular brand is exclusive to women, use this idea to go out and buy your son or hubby some nice boxers.

TOMS SHOES

The second stocking stuffer I came up with was TOMS shoes. Not only are these shoes stylish, comfortable, and affordable, they also go to a good cause. For every shoe sold, TOMS donates a shoe to a child in need. Feel good knowing that by putting these shoes in your stockings you are also putting them into the hands of children who need them. TOMS are made for both women and men in numerous styles and colors (including great styles for the holidays). Check some of them out on our website, shopfinenfunky.com, or call our store for more information.

KAI AND KIEHL'S PRODUCTS

The third stocking stuffer that I chose was KAI and Kiehl's products. KAI offers perfumes, oils, lotions, and candles in the scent of Gardenia, a light, fresh smell that everyone seems to love. My pick is the KAI candle, the scent of the candle fills the whole house leaving me with thoughts of hawaii.

Kiehl's offers anything and everything you need for your skin. From mens shaving cream to mascara, there is sure to be a product that will suit your need. My favorite is the Creme de Corps body lotion. So good and creamy I could eat the stuff.

UGG ACCESSORIES

Lastly I picked something slightly more expensive, but oh so good. UGG accessories. We all know what UGG specializes in, comfort and warmth, and their accessories don't miss that mark by any means. Their gloves, hats, slippers, and ear muffs all have the shearling inside them, the ultimate material to keep you warm and comfy.

So there you have it, four examples of stocking stuffers that won't go to waste, and won't burn a hole in your pocket. Happy Holidays!

FASHION ICON JAMES PERSE

Have you ever wondered how fashion icons create their empire? How the most basic casual wear can be so popular that they become a staple in peoples wardrobe ? James Perse is an example of this kind of designer, and his story shows how a basic idea can lead to a fashion empire.

Growing up in Los Angeles, James Perse was exposed to the best of two worlds, the beach and sports, as well as LA fashion. His father, Tommy Perse, was the owner of a high fashion store, Maxfield, where he spent a lot of his time when he wasn't outdoors.

Being extremely interested in sports, James first designed what he believed was flawed, the baseball cap. After perfecting his baseball cap with immaculate style, fit and colors, in 1991 he put them in his fathers store and instantly attracted clients.

He soon after began making women's t-shirts, tapping into what he believed to be a dry market. In 1996 James founded his first line of women's' knits, which soon progressed into two casual collections; Standard James Perse and James Perse Los Angeles ready-to wear- items. By 1998, his brand expanded into a men's collection and later into children's wear.

In 2003 James Perse opened the first retail store, exhuming the culture and upbringing of James himself. In 2007 they launched the online shopping site, opening the brand to a wider spectrum of people.

James Perse has grown into a world wide brand, known and loved for its simplicity and comfort. As said on the James Perse website, "His passion for minimalist architecture, influenced by warm west coast indoor outdoor living, and the casual clothing that's inspired by it, ultimately resulted in James personal design philosophy and aesthetic- low maintenance high fashion- emphasizing elegance and comfort..."

James Perse built himself into a fashion icon with a background of the beach, and the knowledge of high fashion. His basic idea of perfecting the ball cap transformed into the need for cozy casual knits. His understanding of classic comfort has taken over the market and created a nearly untouchable empire.
