MINI CASHMERE WARMERS

These dainty cashmere warmers, available in seven colors, slip easily into pockets and gloves. And thanks to the 60 gram gel packs inside, you can take them with you on board a chilly flight - they heat up in boiling water; just ask a flight attendant for some ($15 at restorationhardware.com).

IHOME GLOWTUNES PORTABLE RECHARGEABLE MINI SPEAKER (IHM61)

Whether you're sunning in a beach chair or preening in a hotel room, sometimes you want to listen to your music without ear buds. This palm-size speaker is lightweight and rechargeable, comes in a drawstring pouch and can be used with iPhones, iPads, iPods, MP3 players and laptops. For added pizazz, the speaker changes colors as you listen ($25.99 at ihomeaudio.com).

REEF TREASURE CHEST FLIP FLOPS

Children need flip-flops for beach getaways and summer vacations, but this clever style does double duty, thanks to a secret compartment. Hollow boxes in the heels that slide out are a perfect place to hide money and keys before kids hit the beach ($30 at shop.reef.com).
