The sharing and caring of the season is swell, but some of us get joy from coveting stuff. With that in mind, we present part one of our holiday gift guide, highlighting vanity-table delights as well as snacks and sips. Tomorrow: Books and DVDs.

On the shopping radar: Fragrances, the Jetsetter Collection, lip tar, SW1 and Chanel celebrates little black jackets

In between watching TCM’s Flashbacks in Noir tonight (“Possessed,” “They Won’t Believe Me,” “Dead Reckoning,” “Killer’s Kiss” and more), I’m adding to my summer shopping wish-list. If I go to Anne Fontaine one morning for a bit of browsing (the summer sale runs through Wednesday, June 20), this should be sufficient for a dreamy afternoon. ; )

Gucci Glamorous Magnolia eau de toilette, $70 for 1.7 ounces. The Flora Garden Collection is inspired by an iconic pattern from the Gucci archives.

White Gardenia Petals, from Illuminum Perfumes, $150 for 100 ml (15% concentration of essential oil). Worn by Kate Middleton on her wedding day, the feminine fragrance is available in the U.S. exclusively at Henri Bendel.

Also from Henri Bendel: Jetsetter large hanging weekender, $168. Very cute collection.
