I've seen my fair share of gadget skins and smart phone covers, and I definitely have my favorites. But when a company gets a hearty recommendation from a friend and our own trusted designer , then I know it's worth checking out. And tha…
I'm pretty familiar with the saying about wearing your heart on your sleeve, but with this new line of t-shirts, we might have a new one that's very 2012: Wearing your tweet on your chest. The tShirtOS programmable t-shirt will actually …
Every year during the back-to-school season, I can't help but get nostalgic whenever I see those black and white composition books. Which is probably why I buy a bunch, and now have a stack in my closet. Well, now I can feel that way eve…
As someone who multitasks all day long with work and four kids, you can bet I need a bag that does the same exact thing. That's why I've got my eye on the newest Kelly Moore camera bag slated to be ready to ship in just a couple of weeks…
We've all been there. Staring at an out-of-date PC tower, trying to figure out what to do with twenty pounds of useless technology that was top-of-the-line three years ago. But Italian designer Paolo Mirai has a great new way to use your…
I will always be a skater girl at heart, but my style has evolved toward more subtle fashion choices than the G&S Skate Rat Pool Party t-shirt I rocked back in the day. Like these hip and gorgeous iPhone backs made from discarded skatebo…
I have the terrible habit of dropping my little point-and-shoot camera right into my bag without first putting in the case. Now that I have a camera I love , I've gotten better. But there's nothing like the incentive of a cute new camera…
If you're a lomography fan, or just looking for a super cool hostess gift for a friend who's generous with her beach house, this new camera is so neat. The St. Tropez edition of the La Sardina Camera makes me feel elegant just trilling t…
I admit when I hear the word stylus, I still think of that awful little black toothpick-y thing that came with my very first Palm Pilot. Now, it's so exciting that they've become stylish, comfortable to hold, and more importantly, harder…
I think it's pretty well-established at this point that I'm a fan of fashionable tech , and the same goes for cases for the popular new Kindle Fire . I use any excuse possible to accessorize my gadgets with beauties like this Van Gogh iP…
Glitter is so fabulous in theory and often so wretched in reality. It sloughs off eyelids yet refuses to budge from fingernails. That handmade card in the school bag leaves your car looking like a fairy murder scene. And yet... it's so s…
File this one under "for the kid who has everything" -- unbelievably, outrageously, way super cool LED hula hoops. If it weren't for the splurgey price, I'd snatch up a few of these rechargeable LED hula hoops immediately. Should you nee…
It's been a long time since I've carried around my SLR, but one thing was certain when I did that I learned from my shutterbug friends: Never use it without a camera strap. With that in mind, just look at these gorgeous camera straps I f…
Not every dad is going to want a tie for Father's day, traditional though it may be. But when you see what this tie actually does, then you'll understand why I think it might just be the ultimate Father's Day gift for the geek dad in you…
Ahhh...I still remember the day I picked up my very first MacBook like it was yesterday. Pristine white shell, fancy schmancy inner workings. It was like reaching nerd-vana while floating on top of a wispy wireless cloud. Five minutes la…
Just when I thought I'd seen a cover for every gadget, I found these real wood skins for my husband's favorite headphones on sale, and I couldn't click to buy fast enough. I've never quite laid eyes on anything like the Lazerwood for Bea…
There's a secret club of Chilewich iPhone case owners, of which I am a member. There's no password, no clubhouse, no weird hazing rituals. We just flash our phones at one another with a knowing glance, that we are in on the secret. Now, …
It's amazing which designers have jumped into the laptop bag market these days. A few weeks ago, I was searching for this gorgeous spring/summer Marc by Marc Jacobs tote online for a good price, when I stumbled on a laptop bag of his tha…
There are plenty of us passionate enough about our social media channel of choice, to consider displaying our allegiances on our baby clothes , our couch pillows and now perhaps...our shoes. A while back, we discovered these Adidas Twitt…
With all the pretty iPhone cases we feature, I keep getting requests from my Blackberry-toting friends to find some covers for them as well. So leave it to CMP fave Jonathan Adler to design gorgeous cases that are perfectly sized for you…
These boots were not made for walking. Or running, kicking, moshing, stomping, or reliving your misspent youth for that matter. These Doc Marten Boots are just 2" tall and actually, they're made for digital storage. These 2" tall black b…
Now that I'm getting back in the habit of carrying around an actual camera, as well as my trusty iPhone, I'm starting to eye all the fabulous dual-use camera bags out there that can double as purses too. Wow, they've come a long way, bab…
How fondly I remember those giddy days (and nights!) of playing Super Mario Bros. in brilliant 8-bit color. It was a simpler time. A time when I loved nothing better than stomping turtles. And I still remember the panicky excitement of c…
I love Ora Kiely prints so much, we even included the new diaper bag in the Cool Mom Picks Baby Shower Gift Guide this year. But even if you've outgrown the diaper bag stage--or never went through one at all, oh cool aunties of the world…
