Runway fashions this season might be retro inspired, but for the bound and determined fashionista, this season’s must-haves are less about the accessories and more about the gadgets. From the latest and greatest phone to this season’s must have fashionable video game, I’ve rounded up every fabulous electronic essential for girls on the go!
#1 - Remember that time you and your girlfriends spotted Alcide from True Blood when you were out on the town and nobody believed you because you didn’t have photographic evidence because you’re beloved iPhone went dead from all the foursquaring and status updating you did earlier in the evening? Well thanks to the Mophie Juice Pack, you will never be in this predicament again! This adorable cute fluoro case more than doubles your phone’s battery life, ensuring you will be able to check-in, update your status, tweet your adventures and have the photographic evidence to back it all up!
#2 - Sometimes being the Girl-About-Town that you are gets a little overwhelming. Tune out all the noise with these gorgeous headphones compliments of Lady Gaga and Dr. Dre. After all, why shouldn’t your earphones go nicely with your Gucci?! (Monster Cable Heartbeats 2.0 by Lady Gaga High Performance In-Ear Headphones with ControlTalk - Multilingual)
#3 - This is the ULTIMATE camera for the social media fashionista. The Fujifilm FinePix Z90 lets you upload your pics to the web so you can share your most fabulous moments (aka brag) with millions of your closest friends. Did I mention that it will fit in your tiniest clutch and also comes in this season’s MUST HAVE color?! (Fujifilm FinePix Z90 14 MP Digital Camera with Fujinon 5x Wide Angle Optical Zoom Lens and 3-Inch Touch-Screen LCD (Blue))
#4 - There’s nothing fashionable about dressing for a sunny afternoon to find yourself, your sundress and your wedges looking more like a drowned rat than the stunning care-free beauty you are. The solution to your weather-appropriate dressing dilemma? This sleek, forecast reading crystal clock from Oregon Scientific. One look at your shiny crystal weather ball and you’ll know when to skip the espadrilles and opt for your closed toed heels. (Oregon Scientific BAR1000 Crystal Weather Station)
#5 - Let’s face it, very few of us will ever be as skilled with a camera as Richard Avedon, but with instagram’s app for iPhone, we can take all those photographs that look like something our 5 year old niece would capture, and turn them into beautiful works of art, ready to be shared with facebook, twitter, or even your grandmother who just learned about email.
#6 - For those of you glamtastic girls that are eagerly anticipating being the first of your friends to sport the new iPhone 5 in a couple months, I’ve got something to say to you: “OH PAH-LEASE!” Girl, iPhone’s got nothing on the new Christian Dior Smartphone. That’s right, I said it…A DIOR Smartphone that exudes glamor with it’s hand-crafted mother-of-pearl, steel, gold, sapphire crystal and diamond case. Having a rock on your left ring-finger is going to be soooooo last season when you’ve got this bad boy dangling from your wrist.
#7 -Whenever I see an ultra-skinny model, I always want to buy her a cheeseburger, but now, thanks to the Jelly Lens iPhone Filter, I can take a picture that makes her look like she’s been frequenting In & Out Burger! Thanks to these plastic and acrylic stick-on lenses that come in wide-angle, kaleidoscope or starburst, I can play camera tricks all day long.
All joking aside, these pocket sized filters can take your phone photography to another level!
#8 - My motto is, “You never know when you’re going to be ‘discovered’”, which basically means you’ve got to put your best foot forward at every opportunity. This compact mirror from Les Tai Tai features LED lighting to ensure you look like your most fabulous self at any given moment.
#9 -What happens when you cross high-fashion with high-computer-geekage? A video game I might be caught dead playing. This may sound like a joke, but it’s the honest to God’s truth (I would never lie about fashion!)…London’s Because Magazine has partnered Alexander McQueen with Tetris! Seriously. Now all I need is a video game where you save the world one Louboutin at a time! Grab your Alexander McQueen Tetris now.
