Great Gift Idea!

If you are looking for a last minute gift for that saucy friend A SCENT OF SCANDAL has come to the rescue. A SCENT OF SCANDAL is a Los Angeles-based candle line created by brother and sister team Ari Solomon and Heather Brancaccio.

Like any scandal these candles are slightly offensive in a cute mild mannered way. The name and fragrance association are enough to make even the prudist chuckle.

The candles come in 8 oz. tins and are hand-poured from 100% soy wax with metal-free, all-cotton wicks. Their burn time is 30-35 hours. So they're not only long-lasting, but also good for you and the environment!

A SCENT OF SCANDAL products are vegan and cruelty-free. We're proud supporters of the important work of PETA, Farm Sanctuary, Sea Shepherd, and Compassionate Cooks.

A SCENT OF SCANDAL is available at Catch 22 $14.

Brand to Watch

Brand to Watch: Black Orchid


It looks like there's a new celebrity favorite in town-- Black Orchid. Black Orchid denim, launched in March 2008 and is the brainchild of designer Julien Jarmoune who, feeling like the market was saturated with ostentatious designs, decided to create an elegant "basic" jean that would appeal to women of all ages. The origins behind the name are interesting-the black orchid is considered rare and highly desirable, thought to have unique powers. The brand already has an A-list following, seen on the likes of Halle Berry, Marcia Cross, Jessica Alba, Kim Kardashian and Selena Gomez. These high-end jeans are luxurious yet affordable At $98 scoop yourself a pair asap at Catch 22.
