Ski season: everything you need to hit the slopes and look good doing it.

The Belkin Sport Command ($80) lets you take your iPod to the slopes without having to pull off a glove or fumble around in a pocket. And it's face-first-down-the-black-diamond-run-resistant.

The Prodigy model in the Turbo Fan series of goggles from Smith Optics ($180) has a micro electronic fan that runs constantly to keep your vision from getting foggy while doing your slaloms.

Snowboarding is still the new skiing, and Burton is still ahead of the game. Moto boots ($140) play in the snow but are fashioned after dirt-bike gear.

The RLX Sapiens Insulator down jacket ($325) will have you working the powder like a model on the runway--xcept you won't be shivering or hungry.

For the post-skiing party, go with this Melton Caban jacket from Viktor & Rolf's collection for H&M ($129).

Now that you've got the look, show it off at Austria's premier ski lodge, Lux Alpinae, a modern boutique take on European tradition. (Winter rates are approximately $110-$200 per night per person, double occupancy.)
