I stumbled upon this really great infographic about how your favorite websites track where you’re going and where you’ve been. Really interesting stuff.

As always, I’m still trying to update my wardrobe. I’m seriously lacking in the nice shirt department. Love this one from Ann Taylor Loft.
Beautiful leather moleskin covers. I definitely wouldn’t purchase one simply for a notebook, but I love the buttery soft leather.
Neapolitan’s new mini boxes sold in her Etsy shop. I want to frame the top middle and top right sheets of paper as pretty original artwork.
This super awesome faux python print iPhone cover. I spotted it in Oprah with a 50% off coupon code– which I think I love just as much as the cover.

The Hipstamatic photo application for iPhone. I’m taking all of our beach pictures with it and I love the vintage feel they’re producing. (More pictures next week!)
Selling our old iPhones on Ebay. We’ve basically paid for our 4.0 upgrades just by selling our old ones. And no matter what people say, the new phone rocks!
The beautiful jewelry by Noelani Designs. They’re sold at one of my favorite boutiques in Charlotte, Isabella, and are seriously gorgeous pieces.
Hooked on Gadgets
Thursday, June 10th, 2010
I like to think of myself as an excellent multi-tasker but in reality, I often find myself overwhelmed with how many emails I have going, catching up on Twitter, posting to Facebook and trying to remember what I was reading. This article about how we are becoming hooked on gadgets, becoming distracted and the resulting effects on our brain is really fascinating. Definitely a great read for all of us.

This is my all-time favorite Google logo. The fact that they created a way for us to play Pacman… genius. I can’t tell you how much time I spent when it was on the homescreen. Now, it’s officially on the web forever. Love.
How fun are these TOMS wedges? So fun and so perfect for summer.
I’d love to get a new dress for the wedding we’re attending in July. I think this one seems fun. I do wish it was shown on a model though.

Such a pretty way to personalize your MacBook or iPad.
Now that I’m having a lot of meeting with potential clients, I’m feeling the need for some dressy jeans. I don’t quite feel the need to wear slacks with most of the meetings, but regular dark matchstick jeans don’t quite cut it for everything. These trousers look great!
Love. love, love these cups. The Kate Spade Green stripes are amazing. Wish they weren’t bad for the environment though.

Is a denim jacket in the 10 must haves for a woman’s wardrobe? If not, I think it should be… and of course I don’t have one.
Usually I just use rubberbands to hold cords, but sometimes with ones that get used a lot (laptop charger, iPod ear buds) it just seems to make the tangle worse. These winders look so perfect.

Even though I haven’t yet read Joy’s book… and it’s not even released yet… I’m still loving the concept and can’t wait to get my little paws on it.
I absolutely love my new MacBook Pro. It seriously has made my online life so much better.
Blogger favorite Max Wanger now has a shop filled with select images printed on shirts, postcards and fine art prints. I adore the LOVE image above.

This card is so perfect. It would be cute for a long distance relationship or if you live away from your family. Bonus For Me: It’s available printed with Phoenix.
John Derian postcards. I really wish I could find them locally– they’re only $1.50 to $2, as Jordan pointed out, what an easy way to create unique art.
The TeuxDeux to-do list. It’s runs in your Internet browser and as swissmiss (the designer puts it) “you always see an entire week in front of you and you see what day of the week you’re on. Days in the past are light gray, the actual day is red and days in the future are black. You have the ability of checking items off, which is incredibly satisfying. But, you can also ‘x’ an item off, delete it, if you want to get rid of the clutter.” Bonus: all the items you don’t finish transfer over to the next day. Love, love, love this.
The fact that a bunch of community minded citizens voiced their concerns, spoke up and saved 1/2 of the Charlotte library system from being closed. It’s amazing how several people can come up with a much better solution than fulling cutting services to hundreds of thousands of people.

Real Simple’s free dowloadable screen saver designed in celebration of their 10th anniversary. It’s colorful, keeps track of time and is a subtle reminder that time is fleeting. (Wish they would get the PC download up though.)
This book my friend Megan got me for my birthday. It makes me super inspired to build my wardrobe with specific pieces that are timeless.
Lindsey’s perfectly striped pocket tee. You will not believe where it’s from.

I am loving these Chilewich iPhone cases. I see Chanel tweed when I look at them… especially the light colored one.

Feather Report App
Monday, November 23rd, 2009
I’m what some might call fashion challenged. I know what I like, but when it comes to putting it together, I’m not always sure. And when the weather gets out of my comfort zone (say below 75) I just don’t know what to wear!
Enter the Feather Report. It’s an iPhone app that looks at the weather in your area and creates an outfit based on the temperature and whether it’s sunny, rainy, snowy etc. You can save your favorite outfits and even click on each individual garmet to be taken directly to the website for purchasing.
Fashion inspiration has never been so easy and I must admit, I absolutely love it!

Hands on Small Business
Thursday, October 15th, 2009
Last night I attended a Hands on Small Business session hosted by kirtsy and Microsoft. The session discussed social media solutions for small businesses including using Office Live, Facebook, Twitter and blogs. As someone who loves social media (obviously) I found it to be really interesting. The instructors were very knowledgeable and engaging, and, the attendees were lively. I was even able to network with a few people and learn a few things. Imagine that!
There are 100 free events hosted throughout the nation for small business owners and entrepreneurs to learn all about this exciting world. I definitely recommend you check one out. And, did I mention it’s free?!
