Trendy Trinkets for the New Year

Are you hosting a New Year’s Eve party on Monday? If you’ve been mulling over the idea but haven’t got a clue where to get all your party supplies on such short notice I’m here to help.

I found a site where you can get everything from plates to party hats, candles to noisemakers, games, music, confetti and more AND get it delivered to your home in time for your ball drop festivities all with the click of a mouse.

SocialCouture.com is offering a “New Year’s Eve Complete Party Set” for 25% off to anyone ordering it prior to January 10, 2008 (the date was extended for those of you who want to purchase the set and use it on December 31, 2008).

The set comes in a decorative box and includes candles, party hats, feathered noisemakers, appetizer plates, drink slips, cloth napkins, candleholders, and much more for eight people. The set retails for $285, but with the 25% discount you pay just $213.

Another hot trend for 2008, which can be used at your New Year’s Eve bash (or throughout the year) is Sigg’s eco-friendly water bottles. The Swiss designed container is not only “green,” but also tres chic. It’s made of lightweight reusable aluminum and doesn’t contain any of the toxins found in traditional plastic bottles.

Celebs such as Madonna have one for each family member so she can keep her kids and the environment safe without compromising their fashion sense. The stylish bottles are also a favorite of “green” stars such as Sting, Bono, and Julia Roberts.

The company has more than 140 designs to choose from (everything from classic solids to pretty floral patterns, there’s even an entire section dedicated to kid designs) and to top it off there are 22 different interchangeable lids available so you can customize your bottle’s look and not worry about carrying the same bottle to the office day in and day out. What’s more, you can spend 2008 being proud that you aren’t adding one more plastic water bottle to the 30 million that end up in America’s landfills each day.
