Apple - MacBook with 13.3" Display - White - MB062LL/B

6 people recommended this item

Description

I entered the dark side during LA Fashion Week by ditching my PC (or should I say it ditched me) for a MacBook. Let me tell you something ... the dark side rules! The MacBook is prettier, easier, and just plain better than the PC.

This white little book of magic is so valuable to my life. I spend more time with my MacBook then I do with my family or friends. You could say that me and my MacBook are pretty serious, I think I might pop the question in the next month or so.

Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte

First to recommend

Description

I was never a Starbuck's girl ... I preferred Coffee Bean.

I was never a latte girl ... I preferred green tea.

Until ... Starbuck's came out with their "Skinny Latte." Yes I am a sucker for clever marketing tactics, shut up. But seriously, these lattes are delicious. With only 90 calories for a small ( I refuse to call it a "tall") you get all the taste, all the caffeine, all the coolness that is associated with carrying around a paper Starbuck's cup.

I will be gulping these down like a mad woman while I am in NY Fashion Week because I will need the caffeine but I won't need the calories.

Gemini's are the most talkative sign of the bunch, they thrive off of constant communication. The crack... I mean Blackberry is the best way to be in touch 24/7.

Emergen-C Raspberry - 36 - Packet

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

Whether I am at work or blogging the night away during fashion week ... I NEED my Emergen-C.

TheDelicious introduced me to these Emergen-C packets. She would chug that powder stuff down with about 3 drops of water and I always looked at her and said "NASTY" until the day she made me drink one. It was gross at first then all of a sudden I was like "hmm, this stuff ain't half bad" Gives me a nice little boost in the middle of the day and its doesn't taste horrible if you chug it. I am now a super fan.

Pepper Pot Business Card Holder

4 people recommended this item

Description

Sometimes its nice to keep your contacts together the good old fashioned way. I own this business card holder (in a different print) and I really like it. It's stylish, it's practical, and it sure beats having a bunch of business cards falling to the bottom of your bag.

I am bringing my Pepper Pot Business Card holder with me to NY Fashion Week so I can collect cards. I will snatching cards from anyone carrying one - so if you are in NY watch out :) (via See Jane Work)

I really like Moleskine notebooks, I mean who doesn't on ThisNext! I have found the reporter style to be particularly useful especially while taking notes and making sketches during Fashion Week.

Jelly Wraps with .05 oz Purell Bottle

3 people recommended this item

Description

New York is a dirty city, a cool city but a dirty city all the same. I am going to be out and about pretty much all day during Fashion Week and when I don't have time to wash my hands you better believe I will be reaching for my Purell. I have the neat little jelly thing too! Hooks right onto my purse.

Airborne- Effervescent Adult Formula, 36Tablets Pink Grapefruit (Bonus Size)

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I don't travel without Airborne! There are so many skanky diseases floating around in airplanes and I can't take the risk of not looking fabulous when I arrive at my destination. The pink grapefruit flavor is the best one. You can drink it without gagging, heck you can even drink it and say "mmm"

Chanel Blue Satin Nailpolish

First to recommend

15 people recommended this item

Description

**Update**

I now own this nail polish and I LOVE it. In some nights it looks black and others blue. I have heard that Chanel nail polish chips easily but that isn't true for me. I gave myself a manicure with Blue Satin and it lasted for almost week, which is HUGE for me ... usually my nail polish chips after only one day.

Buy this nail polish while you still can!

********

Forget about black satin, its all about Chanel blue satin. Its already sold out on pre-order (neimanmarcus.com) so you better get ready to sell your soul to the devil to get a bottle because chances are it isn't going to happen. Good luck.

Color will be released Jan. 2008.

Canon PowerShot SD1000 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Silver)

9 people recommended this item

Description

*Update-

I now own this fabulous camera! It takes AWESOME pictures and its really easy to use. I have to say that I haven't used any of the fancy power shot features but my regular photos have never looked better.

*****
Don't you just love speedy shipping? My parents sent me this camera for my birthday (which in a 6 days) and it came early!!! Woo hoo. I was actually too tired to test it out last night when I got home but you better believe I am going to crack it open tonight.

I asked for this camera because thedelicous owns it and she always takes the best pictures. I am sure the fact that she is a good photographer has something to do with it ... but still the camera helps too. Can't wait to test mine out.
