We here at Styledash know that Christmas sweaters can get pretty old, pretty fast, even for your favorite clotheshorse Friends, so we're putting together some gift lists that go beyond the closet. We've covered those fashionably bookish friends of yours, so now it's time to make your way down your Holiday shopping list to the ones who appreciate stylish song. Here are seven CDs that very appropriately fit into the fashion world, whether it's singers turned designers like L.A.M.B. goddess Gwen Stefani or a compilation of the biggest tunes to hit the runways of Fashion Week 2006. Plus, we've thrown in a bonus because, well, we didn't want to leave a hole in the picture.

Sunday - Ever since I found myself chanting B-A-N-A-N-A-S every time I saw an apple, I have stayed away from Gwen Stefani's music. However, I adore and respect the woman for her utter goddess-without-diva-ness.

Monday - We adore Gwen for her non-diva-ness, but we love Victoria Beckham for the exact opposite reason. D.I.V.A. I was tempted to pull out one of the old Spice Girls albums, but couldn't bring myself to do it.

Tuesday - If ever she dreamt of being a runway model, now's her chance. Just throw the Music from Fashion Week CD onto the player and let her strut her stuff.

Wednesday - He's another singer turned designer Justin Timberlake, or Mr. JT, as I like to call him. I hate to admit it, but I find myself bumpin' to Sexy Back whenever it hits the airwaves.

Thursday - Mr. Karl is well-known for his design, but he might be just as well known for his collection of music. His CD is a mix of some of his favorites.

Friday - Beyonce has a new album out, but I am so burnt out on the lovelost song right now, so I'm pointing to the album just before it. Beyonce's clothing line is House of Dereon.

Saturday - I've mentioned the entire Hotel Costes series before. Nothing particularly fashionable about it other than the CDs are based on the famed Parisian landmark. And who doesn't love those shoes on the cover of Volume II?

Bonus Stocking Stuffer - Obviously, the first thing one thinks of when hit with "Jay Z" is rap, but the man is also The Man behind urban streetwear line RocaWear.
