Non-Rude Awakening
Fashion news contributor Erin Wylie hated nothing more than the jarring wail that woke her each morning, so this Moonbeam Clock from L.L. Bean was the perfect antidote. Instead of an annoying chime or bleep, this alarm works by emanating a soft illuminating light. For heavier sleepers, a backup bell kicks in moments later. "I love the retro vibe," she says, "but even better, it's a much gentler way of starting the day."

i love this! I too have been looking for a new alarm clock that isn't so offensive in look and sound.
Love it! It's adorable...and I love that it doesn't emit alarm-like sounds.
