Great little modern jewelry box! Works as decoration in your bedroom and a great way to get all of your bobbles an bits together in an organized fashion. The “Lux Jewelry Box” ($89) from West Elm has a smooth lacquer finish with natural linen lining. Comes in silver, ivory and yellow.
Bathing suit season is upon us. Bliss Spa’s “Fat Girl Slim” ($29) is a slimming body cream that stimulates circulation. How it works: made with caffeine and QuSomes (a proprietary delivery enhancer that helps penetration), this rich cream helps smooth the skin as it firms, trims, tones, and energizes. So give it a couple weeks and it should make your skin tighter and reduce cellulite.
Negotiating skills is something I think every working girl needs to read up on. It can be easy to put it off and talk yourself out of going through a confrontational negotiating process, but sooner or later we will all have to go through it. Authors of “Ask for It” ($17) Linda Babcock and Sara Laschever offer a four-phase program, backed by years of research, that will help you identify what you’re really worth, teach you your bargaining power, develop the best strategy for your situation, and manage the reactions and emotions that may arise.
A little bling when you are sipping your drink by the pool. I am not sure why by for some reason I find these “Cool Jewels” ($6) jewel shaped from CB2 ice cubes adorable.
I am all about changing makeup with the seasons. Stila’s Summer Eye Shawdow Palette ($40) has a nice combination of metallics and soft colors for the summer. The palette includes shades Ray (shimmering golden copper), Mystic, (shimmering aqua blue), Kitten,(shimmering nude pink), Wheat, (pearlescent beige), Prize, (soft gold shimmer), and Sun, (shimmering golden peach).
A great cropped blazer from JCrew that can be used for work or play. This metallic jacquard ($268) was inspired by a vintage swatch and custom-colored just for JCrew. I love the gold and lime green combo!
Put your hours of gaming into a workout! Wii Fit ($90) comes with a pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board which you can use with other players to experience an extensive array of exercise, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and balance oriented games. Great features like you own personal trainer and the ability to track yourself against other users are promised. Cheaper than a gym membership, will roll out mid-may and you can start pre-ordering today! Via
I am pretty excited about spring finally arriving and the bright colors that are soon to emerge. This Bella Laptop Bag ($75) is great if you are looking to liven up your accessories for spring and you will certainly never lose it in a crowd of laptop bags! Made with japanese softtouch koshin and has a fully padded computer compartment along with several single pockets for pens/cell phone/planners.
If you have dozens of blank planners piled in a corner and tend to organize your day in a less structured manner than the Non-Planner Datebook might just be the ticket. This unique planner/journal randomly intersperses monthly overview calendars with note and idea pages. No constrictions and can serve as both a journal or planner.
Tax season often makes us all claim to “be more organized next year” in our finances. The Receipt Catcher ($10) is great to make sure you are always prepared when it comes to your your credit card bill. Great to keep at work or during travel for reimbursable expenses.
I have never been one for liquid blush but this one is great! Tarte Check Stain ($28) is easy to apply and has great staying power that will last all day long. Also it is very bendable and sheer. Comes in 7 great colors including one bronzer.
Design-her Gals is a great site that allows you to create an cartoon-like version of yourself or friends and put them on paper. I had some fun and created myeslf. Create a pad of paper for a gifts or invitations. The pads of paper, they come in sets of 6 pads (3x3 and 50 sheets) in an orgnza bag.
This Gaiam “Everything Fits Gym Bag” ($48), which is made of recycled fabric, can holds all the things to take you from work to the gym: clothes and sports gear. The bag has a large main compartments and internal pockets. The window compartment can accommodate shoes or wet clothes. Also, there is an elastic band on the bottom for your yoga mat.
From the editor’s of Men’s Health “Eat This Not That: Thousands of Simple Food Swaps That Can Save You 10, 20, 30 Pounds-or More!” ($11) is a simple guide to making smart choices in our ever-increasing fast past lives that lends itself to eating on the go. The authors go in depth about smart choices at your local fast food chains and the frozen food isle. Great way to discover how to cut calories!
In my opinion West Elm has some of the best looking canvas storage boxes on the market. Not only are they durable (8-oz. cotton canvas) they also have a nice clean look that is helps to establish that organized look. They come in this great bright orange, a more neutral off-white, and a print and cater to whatever your storage needs (photo boxes, magazine butlers, boxes..etc). (For Brittani)
