I must admit that I judge a perfume by its bottle. And, in the case of Prada Infusion D’Iris, I would have snapped it up on looks alone. The hefty glass bottle at once combines old-world glamour while the clean, modern lines keep it from looking like something your grandmother would own. And even better, that contradiction is in the scent itself– it’s crisp and light, something you can definitely spritz on without fear of suffocating those around you, yet it’s substantial enough to last for hours. The heart of the fragrance is iris, lightened up to be appealing, not overpowering. Other notes include orange blossom, mandarin, and cedarwood. Infusion D’Iris is available exclusively at neimanmarcus.com until November. Get a 1.7 oz bottle for $67 by clicking here.

This summer we’ve spotted loads of stars like Jessica Alba, Fergie, Nicole Richie, and more sporting comfy, brightly-colored t-shirts. After a little digging, we found out these tees are from a cool new company called LnA that launched this past spring. The collection, which ranges from $55 to $70, includes everything from sexy deep V-necks to muscle tanks in bright colors like violet, canary yellow, and cherry red. The lure of the tops is their super soft cotton and flattering fit. We’re definitely looking forward to wearing the company’s long-sleeved tees this fall. Get Jessica Alba’s basic crew neck, $60 at revolveclothing.com or Fergie’s V-neck, $65 at intermixonline.com.
