Shop Hopping

So you're kicking yourself for leaving shopping to the last minute, again, but there are still lots of goodies left on the holiday platter. For the perennial downtown girl on your list, choose from a selection of holiday treats from Alexander Wang, including a cashmere beanie and hoodie scarf. A union of luxury and grunge, they're modestly priced (sort of), which means you can also snap one up for yourself… If you’ve waited this long to start shopping, a couple more days won't hurt. Especially since Target won't unleash its Rodarte collection until Sunday, featuring simple yet totally worthy versions of the girls' signatures—lacy leggings, X-ray prints—and at a microscopic fraction of the cost... For the fancier lady, Valentino has created an haute couture T-shirt appliquéd with an Orchid print for Colette. The limited-edition piece will be available during Couture Week in January, but you can pre-order now. Or pick something out from Colette's White Crystal Christmas collection with Swarovski. Highlights include a Kuntzel + Deygas candle for Diptyque, Medicom Toy Be@rbricks, a pair of Adidas Wings by Jeremy Scott and even a Quiksilver surfboard… And finally, something for the boys, with the release of Nike Sportswear's Destroyer jacket in honor of New York City, available in classic leather letterman or swankier satin. Exclusively at Nike's Soho store, 21 Mercer St.
