[Camera Crew] Good, and mark it.

Hi, I m Michael Kors, fashion designer.

You know, this year really for the holidays

I wanted to be able to give people

things that are practical but glamorous,

so my two favorite gifts this year,

definitely gonna be this pink gold chronograph watch.

The color s fabulous, makes you smile, can wear it everyday.

And we did these amazing iPad cases

all in metallics for Apple, and you know what?

I love the idea that something practical can be glamorous.

That s the best gift.

I think the best gift that I ever received for the holidays,

my mom made me some incredible photo albums.

I mean, just family pictures from years and years.

Incredible, personal, wonderful.

I always think the coolest way to wrap a gift,

I love the idea of craft paper always and I use twine,

and then I always think it s kinda cool

if you can use some cinnamon sticks

or something that s gonna kinda

give you a little bit of a holiday scent when you wrap.

Simple, but at the same time,

kinda gives it that holiday mood.

I think my favorite cherished holiday recipe

would have to be my grandmother s potato latkes.

They are not easy to make, but they re spectacular.

Definitely not dietetic, but fabulous.

I think first off for me it s always God s Love We Deliver,

cause they do amazing work all year,

but particularly at the holiday time

I think you wanna think about all those people

who really need meals delivered to their homes.

You know, my favorite holiday movie

is totally silly and ridiculous,

but I love to laugh at the holidays.

National Lampoon s Christmas.

I mean it just makes me smile.

What a goof.

I love the Rat Pack Christmas album.

I mean, for me that s like the most fantastic holiday tunes

cause you know what?

Sammy and Dean at the holidays, ugh!

Fantastic.

And Frank?

What could be better.
