In the collective imagination during the holidays\u2014at least as defined by the nonstop reruns of A Christmas Story<\/em>\u2014mouthing off gets you exactly one thing: a bar of soap between the chompers. But for Ralphie and the rest of us, unsavory consequences don\u2019t reliably keep us on the straight and narrow. As the classic line (attributed to Mae West and others) goes, \u201cGood girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere.\u201d There\u2019s just too much living to do, and if that means proverbial coal in the stocking, it will be well earned.<\/p>\n

What defines naughty<\/em> and nice<\/em> anyhow? At a time when cannabis is booming business and brands tout sex-positive values, ours is not a clear-cut world of sinners and saints, punishments and rewards. Still, a playful riff on the theme has a way of livening up any gift exchange, whether you\u2019re shopping for the good, the bad, or the friend who has everything.<\/p>\n

In the spirit of Ralphie\u2019s four-letter exclamation, the provocateur artists behind Toilet Paper<\/em>\u2014Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari\u2014have created their own tooth-marked version, scented with palatable Italian citrus; meanwhile, the virtuous will swoon for a multicolored Wary Meyers bar that unites the celebratory feel of confetti with an homage to 1980s terrazzo. The ultimate lust-object manicure comes by way of New York nail artist Sarah Nguyen (think piled-on jewels); or stop by Sundays, the green-minded nail salon with house label 10-free polish and the optional guided meditation. The foil for a graffiti-inspired dark chocolate bar by Compartes? Goby\u2019s electric toothbrush in pale pink, launching today.<\/p>\n

The list goes on and on: a marijuana-scented candle by Boy Smells; a come-hither camisole threaded with a Kilian fragrance; a pared-down water filter powered by, yes, coal. Here, there is no judgment. Only a list to check twice\u2014so you don\u2019t miss a thing.<\/p>\n

A subversive art object by two Italians puts a palatable spin on retro punishment, while a confetti-like soap calls to mind Shiro Kuramata\u2019s 1983 Kyoto<\/em> table\u2014for design nerds who have been extra good this year.<\/p>\n

Sarah Nguyen\u2019s sculptural, piled-on nail fantasies are enough to inspire a serious gilt trip; for a low-key manicure, head to Sundays in Manhattan, where the house-label polish is 10-free and guided meditation is a mind-clearing perk.<\/p>\n

The classic lump of coal has come a long way from bah-humbug, thanks to the mainstream embrace of the ingredient\u2019s purifying properties. This minimalist bottle is specially scaled to fit an adsorbent stick of Japanese white charcoal (included with purchase). For a painterly version favored by the downtown set, The Walter Filter is worth clearing off counter space.<\/p>\n

No matter the antioxidant punch, a chocolate bar always has an element of transgression, particularly when hand-decorated in homage to the best street taggers. Goby\u2019s new all-pink electric toothbrush, launching today, wipes the slate clean.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rolling papers with an art director\u2019s sensibility have so many uses, whether to smoke an all-herbal blend like Tetra\u2019s collaboration with Heavy Nettle or other festive greenery of your choice. Another take on fragrant paper: Byredo\u2019s limited-edition portfolio of six scented drawings, produced with the French creative studio, M\/M (Paris).<\/p>\n

The word athleticwear<\/em> is open to interpretation. In the world of lingerie line Fleur du Mal, that means a lace-trimmed camisole threaded with fibers carrying Kilian\u2019s aptly named fragrance, Love Don\u2019t Be Shy. Or break a sweat the old-fashioned way, with a Nike sports bra designed with breathability\u2014and strong lines\u2014in mind.<\/p>\n
