If you’re one of the lucky ducks who has an iPhone, then I really hope you’re treating it well and are taking very good care of it! The rest of us, like me, who covet having such a marvelous device, watch you very carefully to make sure you’re only using the best apps and accessories, and will gently tsk-tsk if we think you’re stepped wrong. Save yourself some mild embarrassment and be sure you’re only using these 8 best accessories for your iPhone… we’ll chat about apps later!

1. Apple iPhone 4 Dock

Price: $29.00 at store.apple.com

2. Cole Haan Small Leather Zip Wallet for iPhone

Price: $129.95 at store.apple.com
Maybe you’d prefer a subtle, dignified, more elegant case for your iPhone… maybe one that can be used as a stylish clutch or wallet? If so, why not use this one from Cole Haan, known for its top-notch leather goods? Choose from lush, soft red or black leather.

3. Juicy Couture Crest Case for iPhone 3GS

Price: $34.95 at store.apple.com
Possibly the most important way to protect your iPhone from damage is by using a protective case with it… but who wants a blah, nameless case? Use this pretty pink one from Juicy Couture instead!

4. Owls by Dora Drimalas Uncommon Capsule Case for iPhone 3G/3GS

This sturdy little case protects your iPhone and tells a story though its art. Don’t you want to know the back story of these two gorgeous little owls? I know I do!

5. Apple iPhone 4 Bumper

Price: FREE if you buy an iPhone 4 by September 30, 2010 at store.apple.com
Unless you’re a clumsy maniac like me, then chances are, all you need to protect your iPhone is one of these colorful bumpers. But ah-ha! They’re not for sale! You can choose a bumper for free, in white, black, blue, green, orange, or my favorite, pink! If you purchase an iPhone 4 by September 30, 2010, it’s totally free!

6. iHome iHM79 rechargeable Mini Speakers

Price: $49.95 at store.apple.com
My first set of iPod speakers were made by iHome and I was seriously impressed. For such tiny speakers — they only measure just over two inches square), they sound clear and powerful. Plug in directly to your iPhone and charge with a USB cable. I like the purple ones, but they also come in white, black, silver, and red. In summary, tiny speakers, big sound!

7. Altec Lansing Mix iMT800 Boombox

Price: $299.95 at store.apple.com
Go urban retro with this sleek, vintage-inspired boombox. The sound is huge, and it’s super-cool to use with friends — it can dock up to three iPods or iPhones to get everyone’s favorite mix! So many awesome features, you just have to check it out!

Designer accessories, the kryptonite of women across the world. We spend hundreds, nay thousands, on little trinkets made by designers that we could get elsewhere for less. And why? Because it’s totally worth every penny! The following are my picks for the top 7 cute designer accessories!

1. Emilio Pucci Metal Arm Sunglasses

Price: $385 at neimanmarcus.com
I have a very soft spot in my heart for Emilio Pucci. The colors are bright, the accessories are cute, and don’t even get me started on the shoes. But let me tell you this is the one Pucci item that I would drop almost four hundred dollars on without even thinking. These cute sunglasses are so vibrant and so… spring!  They’re perfect for the warmer months and they’re perfectly adorable!

2. D&G Five Chain Charm Necklace

Price: $250 at neimanmarcus.com
This charm necklace is large and in charge. But, it’s also very detailed. Look very closely at the heart and key and you’ll see the little D&G engravings. With this necklace you’re not only paying for an amazing piece, you’re paying for detail! And it would do perfectly with a laid back outfit like skinny jeans and a basic white tee!

3. Juicy Couture Straw Sun Hat

Price: $68 at neimanmarcus.com
This hat is so retro-chic, it’s ridiculous! I feel like when I put it on I should have on a Jayne Mansfield type hot bikini and just lay around the beach while boys bring me bottles of Coke. But once you shake that fantasy out of your head, you still have the cute hat to hang onto!

4. Kate Spade Yellow Cluster Pearl Ring

Price: $95 at neimanmarcus.com
At first I wasn’t sure if this ring was cute or not but then, it grew on me. After a few minutes of looking at it, you’ll see that what you thought were flaws in the ring are actually unique qualities that make it great. The color for example is not my favorite but what other color could it be? And the clusters though they don’t match, look great on my finger! And best of all, they’re pearls. What girl doesn’t love her pearl necklaces and rings!

5. GB Couture Emily & Ashley Leather Flower Earring

Price: $115 at neimanmarcus.com
These earrings are so unique, that they make a great fashion accessory. You can’t really tell that the flowers are made of leather until you get a closer look. But, they are and they’re the perfect size. They stand out without overpowering and making your head look like it’s got big black flowers hanging from it. They’re also pretty light considering their size!

6. Fendi Embossed Mother of Pearly Watch, White

Price: $595 at neimanmarcus.com
I am really loving that Fendi is making watches that look like belt buckles. Belts are possibly my favorite accessory and these watches are all so quirky and cute but this is by far my favorite. It’s white so it goes with just about everything and, I love the texture of the band. It has little circles that pop out a little, kind of like snake skin but different and it feels pretty cool when you rub your thumb over it!

7. Alexis Bittar Mulberry Bracelet, Large

Price: $255 at neimanmarcus.com
This is just about the coolest bracelet I have ever seen. I love the frosted glass look, and the crystals? Real Swarovski. I also really like that it’s not bulky and doesn’t move too much on your arm. There’s nothing I hate more than a bangle that slides all the way down your arm every time that you move.

Well ladies, hopefully I haven’t caused you to make too big of a dent in those pocket books! Can you think of any other designer accessories that are really must haves? What do you think of the ones above? Let me know down below!

I would love to be in these Juicy Couture design meetings — where they pick pink to go with gold, and then a crown logo! Yes, a crown logo right above this ornate script! It’s gotta be upbeat.

In any case, the company that doesn’t hold back has created a Pink Wireless Mouse ($55).

Sure, Juicy Couture is over the top, but they don’t forget their tech peripherals (this is the second pink mouse they’ve created), nor do they stick you with a plain black laptop bag — oh no. They have lots of frilly options.

So, would you mouse with this guy?

For a while, Juicy Couture was on a role releasing handbags and accessories that were actually suitable for women of all ages, not just tweens… and then this happened.

I apologize fans of this, but everything about this tote is simply tacky and appalling. This extra vibrant denim tote features imprinted letterings reading “Make Every Day Happy” in giant neon letters. Is that supposed to be some type of Juicy words of wisdom?

I speak for myself when I say this tote made me happy in no way. Besides its decor, this tote in general isn’t so attractive, as a matter of fact; it brought back bad memories of a denim jacket I once owned in middle school, it was awfully imprinted with all types of embroidered patches in bold colors. Eeek! I will defend my trendy jacket at the time, as I wasn’t the only one sporting that fashion disaster.

If you take a close look at detail especially around the handles, this tote appears to be poorly stitched, as if it were some quick do-it-at-home project.

If you want something different and retro-like, this Juicy Couture tote might be the one for you, pre-order this tote for only $88 or shop the rest of the Juicy Couture collection online at: Bloomingdales

Girls, I know you are tired of falling for reviews that someone was paid to write online to find that when you purchased the product, you did not get the same results.

While everyone’s skin is different and you may not get the same results as the other girl, I am going to give you 12 best lipglosses that personally worked for me.

13. Loreal Colour Riche Lip Gloss, Soft Mauve – 1 Ea

Price: $7.52 at americarx.com
I tried this lip gloss and must say that I really do not have any complaints about it. It is a rich lip gloss and when I put it on, it feels as if it is not even there. It truly is lightweight, just like it is advertised. It has even been infused with nourishing and moisturizing Vitamin E as well as those lovely Omega 3 oils . This is an unscented formula that will give your lips that hint of subtle shimmer.

12. Rock & Republic ‘Luxe’ Lip Gloss

Price: $26.00 at shop.nordstrom.com
I decided that I just had to include this one in my post. I must say that this is not your average gloss, but it does perfect that pouty look. I like this, because it adds that moisturizer that makes my lips really kissable. It is a sheer tinted gloss, which when I applied it layer after layer, it turned into a bold pigmented lip color. It lasts for awhile and does not need much reapplying.

11. Stila Lip Gloss – # 9 Nude Shine

Price: $14.00 at makemeheal.com
When I first started looking up lip gloss, I came across this and found that I really do enjoy it. This is signature gloss that comes in a neat tube. It does not leave your lips feeling sticky, like a lot of those glosses. It is also long wearing, which is what I like, because Iwork long workdays. I do not like having to reapply lip gloss every hour.

10. Sebastian Trucco Divinyls Lip Gloss

Price: $3.15 at buymebeauty.com
I do not know what you want, but I wanted that kissable, pouty look and that is why I chose it. You see, I saw this on a model in a magazine

(yes, it was an advertisement), but I decided to try it out, just to see if I would like it. I am surprised, because I like it. Here I was, thinking the price was so cheap (yes, that’s another plus side) that it would not be good. Well, this lip gloss really did fool me.

9. Trucco Divinyls Lip Gloss

Price $10.49 at baby-carrier.biz
This is one of those scented glosses that gives off a wonderful smell. However, the smell is not the only thing I like. I also like the way it gives off that incredible shine that most lip glosses do not. The color will also stay there for a long time.

8. Lola Cosmetics NEW! Lip Tease Voluptuous Plumping Lip Gloss Forbidden

Price: $28.00 at makeup.com
For those girls that are looking for that pouty look, then this is lovely. This is lip plumper at its best and will be sure to give you that unique look. At least, it gives me that unique look, so I figure that it should do the same for you. I do not have any complaints. Generally, I complain that there is not enough shades, but this one is available in nine different shades.

7. Bourjois Effet 3D Feux d’ Artifices Lipgloss

Price: $15.00 at yesstyle.com
I have searched for a Lip Gloss for long time, then I came across this one. I think my personal favorite color is Fraise Pailetee. There is also Transparent Paillete and Rose Paillete. My only complaint is that there is not many colors available, but that’s fine, because I enjoy using the one I use.

6. Juicy Loves Sephora

Price: $12.00 at sephora.com
This gloss truly is the secret to having that lovely pout. It is a soft, lightweight lip gloss that comes to you in a lovely pink tin box. This really is a must have for any girl that is into glam stuff. Once you get your lips on this, you will not want to put them on anything else, except for your man’s lips.

5. Sephora Brand Sweet Candy Gloss

Price: $7.00 at amazon.com
I enjoy hydrating lip gloss like nothing else and that is why I like this Lip Gloss by Sephora. This is an exclusive treat that comes in yummy flavors that will keep you smacking your lips. It also conditions your lips with the ingredients in it. Basically, it is one of those pout perfectors and there is no complaining about that.

4. Microquatic Lip Enhancing Gloss

Price: $22.00 at ulta.com
I enjoy this gloss as it is great at enhancing the lips. It also gives a good wash of color, which creates that perfect pout you have been hoping for. I like this as it moisturizes the lips with its fine ingredients. I just wish I had it in more colors.

3. Benefit Lip Gloss

Price: $18.00 at sephora.com
Do you want sexy lips? Of course you do, what girl doesn’t? Well, I found that the Benefit Lip Gloss really is seductive and will give you everything you have always wanted. It makes sure you have lips drenched with color and glimmer. It also comes in some flirty shades.

2. Philosophy Kiss Me™ SPF 20

Price: $14.00 at sephora.com
I like this, because it is a high quality lip balm that is SPF 20. I ran into it, because I had chapped lips that were just so dry. It is especially great for those of you that like lying out in the sun as it will protect your lips from the sun. It comes in a refreshing, peppermint scent that will make you very kissable.

1. Dior Addict Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm

Price: $28.00 at dillards.com
Here we are, at number one already. This lip gloss will make you wish you had a different shade in every purse you own. You see, it works with the chemistry of your lips in order to create that customize shade that works just for you. This really does work work on every one I have met.

This would make the perfect bag for girls of all ages. The fashion staff over at Net-A-Porter prove this with their mannequin, as you don’t necessarily have to be in your teens to rock this tote! If you seek to add another Day Dreamer to your collection.

Lately, Juicy Couture has been doing a fabulous job designing some gorgeous handbags but once in a while there are a few that could be tossed. One of the new Juicy Couture bags that I’m not in love with is the “Lock & Knotted Fringe Marti Shoulder Bag.” I think the main reason I dislike this bag is because it looks like a handbag you could find anywhere with a Juicy Couture metal name plate on the front. There really is nothing special about this handbag.

The Juicy Couture Lock & Knotted Marti Shoulder Bag is available in four different colors: Black; Dk Prepster (pink); Oakbluffs (brown); and Winter White. I do not care for the purse but if I had to pick a color I would probably pick black. I would pick black because what I dislike most about this handbag is the stitching details. In black, the stitching details don’t look as gaudy and tacky.

Some other details of the handbag include a: large flap pocket; half-chain, half-leather strap; studded tassel; grommeted tab; top zip closure; interior pockets; and logo-print lining.

You can purchase the Juicy Couture Lock & Knotted Fringe Marti Shoulder Bag at Nordstrom for $378, which I feel is way too much for this bag. I may be biased about the price because I don’t care for the handbag, but $378 seems a bit much to me for handbag that isn’t anything special.

Introducing the Juicy Couture Yearbook Tote! This canvas tote has been left almost completely blank, leaving plenty of room for people to make their mark on it. It even comes with its own set of Juicy Couture markers! Personally, I think this is such a fun idea. Instead of having autographs collected inside a yearbook that nobody will probably even look at in a few years, your memories of the 2009 school year can live on in the form of a functional accessory! Not in junior high or high school? Just think what a great gift this would make for your daughter/sister/niece/etc! This is definitely a gift she would never forget!

The Juicy Couture Yearbook tote measures 18″ x 12″ x 6″ and it features expandable side gussets with snaps. The front exterior pocket with adorned with Juicy’s trademark Scottie dogs, along with the year. It retails for $88.
