Super affluent shoppers have been tightening their Gucci belts over the past year forcing luxury retailer Neiman Marcus Group Inc. unveiled its Christmas Book Tuesday with a nod to frugality.

More than 40 percent of the gifts in the catalog's 83rd edition cost less than $250! This list includes another change in the famed holiday catalogue...practical items! Don't misunderstand, prices are still out of reach for the average American. New items include $75 plaid stockings, $235 Italian wool scarves, $100 Ugg slippers, $175 cases for iPhones and $250 Ralph Lauren rain boots.

"Tokens of affection don't have to be extravagant to be brilliantly received," the book's introduction imparts.

Extravagant gifts still abound giving shoppers an escape from the tumult in the financial world. There are limited-edition $105,000 Jaguars, motorcycles for $73,000 and DISH favorite a $25,000 "Cupcake Car" custom-made of colorful fabric, wood and sheet metal and powered by a 24-volt electric motor.

Neiman's is not forgetting the GREENIES, there's an eco-friendly chandelier made of 366 plastic bottles rescued from the landfill. Yours for just $12,000. Forget the fact that you can make your own for 12 dollars!

The Dallas-based chain and its luxury competitors are being forced to adjust their inventory and prices as their well-heeled clients splurge less since the financial meltdown ballooned last fall. While luxury stores' sales have stopped falling in recent months, they remain weak to say the least.

Neiman Marcus, privately held since 2005, reported last month that its fiscal fourth-quarter loss widened compared with a year earlier as revenue fell 26 percent and consumers kept a lid on their spending. For the quarter that ended Aug. 1, the retailer reported a loss of $168.5 million, compared with a loss of $35.6 million a year earlier. Revenue fell to $768.1 from $1.03 billion last year.

For the full fiscal year — as revenue fell 21 percent to $3.64 billion from $4.6 billion — the retailer lost $668 million, compared with a profit of $142.8 million a year earlier.

P.S. DISH wants to e Ralph Lauren Rain Boots and the Cupcake Car. Just and FYI =)

Hot or cold it doesn't matter...according to DISHIE Ashley Allen...Scarves are all the rage! For more of Ashley's musings, click HERE

I love, love, love scarves. I love how old hollywood icons used to cruise Sunset in a convertible with one wrapped so delicately around their heads protecting their locks from the wind. I love how the fabric hugs my neck like Octopus' arms when I wear one. I love how I can dangle a scarf over a black dress and it automatically looks more interesting and in fact I find it extremely intersting how I can dote that same black dress the next day with a different scarf and no one seems notice. Not that yours truly does that of course. ;)There is something about a tiny piece of scrap fabric that can make an outfit an ensemble. It is the perfect accessory for any outfit no matter what season, age or economy. It's your shirt or dress' best friend. I wear my luscious coral scarf at least twice a week. I recently spent some time in gorgeous San Fran. It amazed me how many of the women could look so effortly chic by just adding a scarf. I had to bring this piece of the bay area back with me... and of course a case or two of vino from Napa. It can be 100 degree August weather in Texas but you bet your brand new Gucci hobo that I am going to be wearing a scarf, my coral one to be exact... and I am not the only one! Take that San Fran.
