Along with a new year comes a clean slate - an empty inspiration board waiting to be filled with new lusts and loves. As we make long lists of goals and resolutions in between sips of leftover (but still good!) champagne, we mustn't fail to consider the style details that will support us in conquering the unknown this year. What's a girl not to be without in '11? To name a few...

{}

1. Portfolio/Clutch - Maybe you're going over materials with a new client or maybe you're catching up with friends over ginger sidecars. It's appropriate and cute either way.

2. Pretty little jotters - We're always scribbling things. A phone number, an address, a paint color, an inmate ID#. Why not do it on a gilded notecard adorned in symbols of good luck?

3. An impossibly gorgeous writing utensil - Because you deserve beauty in even the smallest of details.

4. Glasses that have taken one more step towards crazy - Still love last year's cat eyes, but could use a little boost of granny-fab.

5. Whimsical nail colors - January is a month for dreaming. Why not do it on your nails?

6. Loads of lashes - The longer, the better... and don't let yourself ever be without them in a time of need.

7. Sequins in the home - Let them spill out of your sparkle-stocked closet and all over your couch.

8. Geeky/girly dress - To get the best of both worlds.

9. Don't-Mess-With-Me-Ring - To account for what #8 lacks.

10. Wedge bootie - In a not-so-neutral color. It's time to get serious about having a little fun.
