Practical Magic
Sometimes the chips, or in this case tennis balls, just fall into place. In 1927, French tennis player Rene Lacoste became an instant legend when he and his teammates stole the Davis Cup from the Americans in an unprecedented victory. As competitive as he was talented, Lacoste had raised the stakes by placing a bet with his team captain: if Lacoste won this crucial event, the captain would buy him a coveted alligator skin suitcase. Lacoste won, earning both the match title and the nickname "the alligator."
Already a style icon, Lacoste paired up with Andre Gillier, head of France's largest knitwear manufacturer in 1933. Thus, Lacoste the fashion house was born. What started as sportswear anchored in streamlined functionality and clean lines expanded into women's, children's, accessories, and more. Throughout the decades, Lacoste has held fast to its original inspirations with modern aesthetics, innovative designs and impeccable quality. Like Lacoste's athletic talent, this brand's sense of style comes naturally. Now that's what we call practical magic.ideeli prices for this event start at $14

Circular Sensations
When Heather Morra was in grade school, a teacher commented that she "made very good rounds," noting the girl's keen ability to draw circles. This absent-minded aside didn't alter Morra's life course at the time, and she eventually entered the corporate world However, her fascination with circles led her back to design, and twelve years ago she launched her jewelry collection, Morra Designs.
Focusing on the simple perfection of circles, Morra creates pieces that float against the body with subtle movement. Small discs dangle like confetti from larger hoops and subtly squared edges add a geometric twist to necklaces and bracelets. Crafted from classic materials like sterling silver and 14k gold vermeil, each piece is both timely and timeless. Her collection has received acclaim from fashion's glitterati and has appeared in publications including InStyle, Lucky, and New York Magazine to name a few. Bridging the gap between simplicity and sophistication, Morra reinforces the old adage that all we really need to know we learned in kindergarten. Going back to the basics, Morra Designs transforms circles into glittering sensations that make a statement.ideeli prices for this event start at $16



Fashion Forte
For nearly one hundred years, one family has led the way in the world's finest yarns and knits. In 1917 Orville W. Forte began his distinguished career as an expert in the global wool trade. When the '40s arrived, the family literally changed the feel of luxury by introducing a new ultra-soft fiber, called cashmere, to the marketplace. But it was in 1991 when Orville's grandson, Dick Forte, founded the sweater division, that the Forte brand transitioned from innovative to iconic.Throughout these developments, Forte built a reputation for simplicity and style. Today, a team of international knitwear designers creates each piece, looking to travel, culture, and art for inspiration. Every sweater is handcrafted in a vertically integrated factory that allows complete control of the process, from first fibers to finished product, to yield knitwear of unsurpassed perfection. Flawless knitting, unique finishing techniques, and refreshing color palettes are marks of the brand, which leaves its sophisticated mark on you. For this family, fashion truly is its forte.ideeli prices for this event start at $45
