Sure she's seen a few cool stemless options with thumb indentations, but truth be told, that's not enough to make her feel better. What she needs is stemless without fear of slippage, and finally, just in time for summer get-togethers, she's found it.

Pottery Barn has the answer that Girlawhirl's been looking for in the form of shatter-proof – some prefer to say bullet-proof since they're made with the same polycarbonate that's used for bulletproof glass – versions of everyone's favorite stemless wine glass. And they come in two sizes, so red drinkers won't feel they're being forced to drink from glasses designed for whites.

Girlawhirl loves the idea of bringing these along as hostess gifts for summer weekends, almost as much as she loves the thought of not having to worry about one slipping out of her hand.

Shatter resistant stemless wineglasses – along with additional stemmed styles are available at potterybarn.com
