All of us at ian hope you all have a very nice Christmas and a happy and healthy 2008!!

 This will be the final installment of our staff favorites for this season. Last but certainly not least, here are 5 recommendations from JANA. Enjoy!

DARYL K. Ruched Jacket. $695. SOLD OUT.

According to Jana, “The stylish details of this beautiful jacket show that the bomber style can be both feminine and sexy. The ruched shoulders and fitted waistband create a gorgeous blousy silohette. Also, the zipper detail on the collar opens into a hood for those rainy Seattle days.”

NICE COLLECTIVE Laced Wrap Sweater. SOLD OUT.

“There’s no wrong way to wear this rad Nice Collective cardigan! The ties can be crossed, belted or woven through slits along the lapel, giving the piece many different looks. The warm wool and neutral hue make it a great layering piece for chilly winter days.”

NICE COLLECTIVE Motor Trench Jacket. $498. SOLD OUT.

“Rugged style with a very feminine shape”.

EVER Marseilles Jean. $249.

“These jeans are super soft and very flattering on any body type. The grey wash and slim straight leg make them a timeless classic while zipper detailing on the front pocket gives them a unique edge.”

ETERNAL CHILD Beams Sweater. $173. SOLD OUT.

“I love the subltle splashes of bright, fun colors on this sweater. It has a definite vintage feel and looks great with high waisted pants-my favorite!”

Our only regret in hiring the smart and beautiful Jana is that she won’t work for us every day! Although, seeing as how she lives such a busy and ambitious life, we’re lucky to have her the 2-3 days a week that we get her.
