Nearby at Satine, which Jones describes as "one-stop shopping" for its chic edit of designer labels, she finds lots of gift potential, particularly the Tsumori Chisato print scarves and Demitasse earrings modeled tiffany rings clearance after antique spoons. There's evidently lots of self-gifting potential, too: She dwells on an Alexander McQueen clutch, a peacock-blue lined cape from the store's own label, and an asymmetrical evening bag by Sang A.
One thing Jones avoids as she shops is any echo of Mad Men's archly precise period style. The show has a way of haunting its cast members after hours, and during its hiatus until the third series goes into production, tiffany money clips clearance Jones is specifically refusing "sad housewife" roles, while some of the male cast members have grown heavy beards to escape their characters' clean-cut looks. On the subject of her costars, "Christina would love this!" Jones exclaims at the sight of a fish-shaped jug in the home store and cafe American Rag Cie on La Brea. (She's referring to Christina Hendricks, who plays the voluptuous Joan Holloway and adores anything with a piscine motif.) Square decorative china ashtrays also make great presents for her colleagues because the series' requirement of constant smoking, even if only of herbal cigarettes, has a tendency to make quitters relapse.

Jones's next appearance is in The Boat That Rocked, a comedy about an offshore British pirate radio station in the sixties, directed by Richard Curtis, who gave her a cameo as a sexy American good-time girl in 2003's Love Actually. But before then are the holidays. A shopping spree with Jones would not be complete tiffany key rings clearance without a stop at Wanna Buy a Watch, a store on Melrose that sells antique watches and jewelry, where she bought one of the rings she is wearing. Here she swoons over the European-cut diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. "Whenever I get a job, I reward myself with something," she says. And then the ever-practical Jones informs me that she has left the store a list of engagement rings she likes, "so when the time happens, my boyfriend will know."

As do other designers who relished ruffles, stripes, polka dots, chic tie-dyes, and jewel tones for resort -- like the vivid blues that popped everywhere from Michael Kors and Roberto Cavalli to Oscar de la Renta and 3.1 Phillip Lim. Big jewelry, which was introduced for fall, was still going strong at Prada, Dior, and Lanvin and is certainly here to stay, while a new idea to emerge was pajama dressing. "We need very little, but we need comfort," says Lanvin's Alber Elbaz of his relaxed silk-satin evening pajamas, which gently caressed the body.
