Amazon says this is the "book of the decade" and though I haven't read every book written in this decade, I agree this is the closest of the ones I have read. I'm not enamored of vampires, don't follow the Gothic culture and don't get hot and bothered over literary vampire porn masquerading as contemporary romance novels. But this is an amazing book. Well-written and every scene is perfect. Though Meyer's central character Bella is a tad off (you never quite get what it is about her that makes the vampire Edward fall in love with her), it all still somehow fits. I'm a writer and so I have the unfortunate habit of critiquing books as I read them, automatically figuring out how I would have phrased things differently. I was absolutely immersed in this book. A complete pleasure. (via The Strand)

Stuart Weitzman red patent leather 'Cala' tote

First to recommend

Description

This bag is freaking gorgeous. The red is brighter than it looks in the picture and it really stands out. I love love love this bag, it's one of my favorites. The best part is that the bag holds all my crap. I am a pack rat and I'm a sucker for bags that let you carry all the crap you want. (via Bluefly)

MOTORAZR V3xx 3G phone in Lavender

First to recommend

Description

I went into the store to buy a Blackberry, but walked out with this instead. My mom asked what features it had, and I replied "I don't know, but it's purple." Lucky for me, it's actually a great phone. Easy to use, the volume is great and it even comes with a camera and video camera. I get good reception in most places and the calls are very clear. The Web browsing is very fast and easier to navigate than most phones that aren't an iPhone or Smart phone (via Motorola)

Gucci Metallic Sunglasses

First to recommend

Description

I had these in the darker color until one of my light-fingered cousins absconded with it. She left in a flurry of Designer Imposters perfume so I didn't have the heart to demand them back. I picked up the lighter pair but gave them to my mom when she tried them on and realized she looked fabulous. My point is, these sunglasses are classy, sturdy and the perfect size. Also, they block out the sun which is great for those days when you're having a Britney moment and want to look good while you're hungover. (via Bergdorf Goodman)

Oh my God just so... yes. That is the eloquent way I am going to recommend this delightful little bit of chocolate-covered euphoria. When I was in Sydney last year, I stocked up on these but vultures (aka my friends) pounced and retreated. Great candy. Yum.

Lia Sophia Fashion Jewelry

First to recommend

Description

Lia Sophia is like Avon or Mary Kay for jewelry. Though I'm not a hostess, I've attended some of their jewelry parties and always went home with unique and gorgeous jewelry. Every time I wear one of their pieces, people ask me where it came from. If you host a party yourself, you get $100 worth of free jewelry. They have a "buy three get one for half off" discount that applies to the highest-priced item. My favorite bracelet (pictured) is from their Spring 2007 collection and is called "After Party."

M.A.C Studio Fix Powder Plus - FOUNDATION

8 people recommended this item

Description

Lipstick, my Burt's Bees chapstick and my MAC Studio Fix compact are the three make-up items I never leave the house without. Prior to discovering Studio Fix, I was one of those people that couldn't wear powder because it was too dry and made my skin itchy, and couldn't wear foundation because it was too heavy and made my skin itchy. MAC Studio Fix was sent by the Cosmetic Gods. Most people don't even think I'm wearing any make-up other than lipstick. (via M*A*C)

MAC Lip Pencil

5 people recommended this item

Description

My issue with lip liners in the past has been that they're either too dry and end up looking too plastic or they're too creamy and my lipstick bleeds. MAC lip liners hold your lipstick in place and yet are creamy enough to blend in with the lipstick. My favorites are Chestnut (for dark brown shades), Mahogany (for reds and lighter browns) and Half-Red (for lighter colors). (via M*A*C)
