  two weeks. that's all the time you have to get the christmas booty, go disco and find the secret passage with these holiday gift picks:

christmas booty.
you're as busy as a beaver buying gifts de noel. but don't forget the most important person. treat yourself to a pair of the pierre hardy booties with a golden heel (750€). avail in electric blue suede, black patent and demure and luxe black matte, these babies should go to the top of your shopping list. 156 galerie de valois. near rue de beaujolais, 1er. 01.42.60.59.75. www.pierrehardy.com


you're so good.
in santa's book, you've been good. very, very good. in fact, he thinks you deserve the van cleef & arpels diamond pendant (37,800€). shiny, sparkly, sweet. just like you, n'est-ce pas? available at printemps. 64 boulevard haussmann. at rue de caumartin, 9e. 01.42.82.50.00. www.vancleef-arpels.com


gotta go disco.
bring a bottle of disco to your holiday party and let the dancing begin. after a few sips of absolut disco vodka (19.95€), you'll be doing your best john travolta moves. use the bottle afterwards to make your own disco magic. available at la grande epicerie at le bon marché. 38 rue de sevres. at rue de l'abbé grégoire, 7e. 01.44.39.81.17. www.absolut.com


naughty et nice.
he definitely knows where you've been sleeping. it's the reason santa's bringing you lots of john galliano lingerie this christmas. the combo of leopard, silk and satin will put you at the top of the best-undressed list this holiday season. available at galeries lafayette. 40 boulevard haussman. near rue la fayette, 9e. 01.42.85.12.00. www.galerieslafayette.com


secret passage.
we all have our secrets. but not like this. the dior passage no. 8 perfume is an ode to the old-fashioned boudoir perfume bottles. filled with a blend of iris and violet flowers, it's a limited edition, so you better email your boyfriend tout de suite. 30 avenue montaigne. near rue françois 1er, 8e. 01.40.73.73.73. www.dior.fr
