Do you covet Reese Witherspoon's A-list style? Well, we can't promise that you will look like her, but we can help you smell like the "Legally Blonde" star.

"My mother always wore gardenia perfume, so I've always been attracted to white flowers," Witherspoon told StyleList. "A large part of my childhood [in Tennessee] was spent in my front yard in a gigantic magnolia tree. So I knew it had to have magnolia blossom in it."

In Bloom smells like Jasmin, gardenia and magnolia; a touch of Georgia peach tea leaves; and a hint of amber and wood. Prices range from $15 to $59 and is available through Avon reps and on avon.com.

Here's how to enter:

  • To enter, leave a confirmed comment below telling us what you think Reese should name her hypothetical next fragrance.

Ready to design your own handbag? Photo: LesaWallace.com

Handbag designer Lesa Wallace knows what it's like to fantasize. From the time she was a little girl, she designed clothing and cultivated her creativity.

In 2003, at the age of 27, she turned these skills to the handbag industry and launched her signature line with a "dollar and a dream."

The classic, yet current Lesa Wallace Handbag collection is made of sumptuous, vibrant Italian leather and high-quality hardware, combining the designer's personal style with today's trends.

Now in its ninth season, it is sold throughout the United States at over 200 boutiques, including style-setters Fred Segal and Nordstrom.

Having seen her dream come true, Wallace is helping others pursue theirs by hosting a "Design Your Own Bag" contest. To enter, submit a bag drawing via LesaWallace.com.

One design will be selected, and the winner will receive both $1,000 and the opportunity to see the bag featured in Lesa Wallace Handbag's next collection.

Wallace's design inspiration has long been the finch bird because, like her, it believes that the sky is the limit. Now it's time to test your limits. So, get sketcing!

Spanx's Slim Cognito Body Suit

You know you want it! Spanx's new Slim Cognito Shaping Suit. Photo: Spanx.com

Sure, stars have access to some of the best trainers and private chefs to keep them looking amazing. But it seems that the slimming abilities of Spanx are still the go-to plan to appear trim and fit on the red carpet.

This year the Spanx team sent each of the female Emmy nominees (including Tina Fey, Christina Applegate and Jennifer Aniston) its special "Red Carpet Slim-ulus" package, including the "Slim Cognito," an all-in-one body suit that perks up the backside, "Undie-tectable Panties" to hide those VPL's and the "Sheer Fashion Patterned Sheers," a tummy, hip and thigh-smoother.

So, which celebrities actually rocked the Spanx freebies under their gowns? We'll never know for sure. Which is the point.

But behind-the-scenes of their Emmy-nominated shows, it seems that the aforementioned Applegate and Fey, along with Marcia Gay Harden, Kristen Chenoweth, Jane Krakowski, Vanessa Williams and Amy Poehler have all requested the body shapers. So, we're guessing they donned them for the red carpet, too.

To look great under your fall wardrobe, visit Spanx.com, as well as the brand's Facebook and Twitter pages.

beach pillow

Relax on the sand in comfort and style. Photo: jogobeach.com

While sunbathing on the beach last summer, swimwear designer Pooneh Mohazzabi had a brainstorm. To take a comfy nap, read, or just enjoy the sights, she needed a better place to lay her head. In an a-ha moment, she thought, "a beach pillow!" Sunworshippers worldwide can now relax their noggins on small cushions supported by slats and covered with brightly covered fabrics.

"I thought that if I needed one than everyone else did too, " she says. And now they're here, part of her larger beach collection (check out the cute bikinis and sundresses) called Jógo Beach. She even took the idea one step futher: When the sun goes down you simply fold the contraption up and place it in its coordinating carrying case, which fits right in your bag or trunk.

It might be nearing the end of summer, but we're willing to bet you have at least one more beach outing planned before the weather turns cold. And, you have to admit that resting your head on one of these babies beats a wet, sandy towel any day. And five lucky StyleList readers will have a chance to find out just how great they are with this giveaway!

Here's how to enter:

  • To enter, leave a confirmed comment below telling us what beach is your favorite to visit.
  • The comment must be left before 5pm ET on Wednesday, August 26, 2009.
  • You may enter only once.
  • Five winners will be selected in a random drawing.
  • Five winners will receive a Jogo Beach Pillow (valued at $55 each).
  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia and Canada (excluding Quebec) who are 18 and older.
  • Click here for complete Official Rules. Winners will be notified by email, so be sure to provide a valid address!
