The Flip Camcorder

Theflip_2

I love this little guy. It's a camcorder. And it only has one button: "Record." The basic model from Amazon will let you captures 60 whole minutes, enough to make your YouTube masterpiece. It's back to basics. How refreshing!

Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder, 60-Minutes (Black)Available via Amazon.co.uk for about £189.

Green & Black's Easter Chocolate

Easter_300Over the weekend, I wanted some chocolate. So I bought some Green & Black's mini Easter eggs. I had this idea in my head that I would have a few a day for the next week. You know...a little sweet treat after dinner time.

They were gone in two days.

Get yours while they're still around from Green & Black's Web site.

Bumble & Bumble Styling Lotion

Creme_cr I have thick hair. So I didn't think I would need this Bumble & Bumble Styling Lotion stuff. I didn't think I would like it either. But seriously, if I apply just a dab of this and then really concentrate when I blow dry my hair, I look fantastic. My hair gets huge...in a good way. And perhaps I'm imagining this, but I look even better the day afterwards...

Bedhead Pajamas

Pjs

I love love love love Bedhead Pajamas. But they're hard to find in the UK. And I don't want to get hit with a customs duty for "importing" them, so I'm still hanging on to the four sets I bought in 2004. I put "importing" in quotes because really...it's not importing. It's just shopping. Don't they get that?

Lupe Fiasco Superstar

I like a little hip-hop. It gives me hope. I love Lupe Fiasco. I just downloaded his new album last night. YouTube won't let me include the official Superstar video because I'm in the UK, but here's a live version of it, with some guest singers. In the real version, you have to imagine that the rapping is a little softer, if that makes sense. Check out Paris, Tokyo too.

L.A.M.B. Gold Hidden Platform Shoes

Lamb_crI have a problem. If it's gold, I want it. And I want these. They're Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B Daly Woven Pumps in Gold. I have no idea what I'll wear them with. And I know I'll trip and fall and break something in them. But if you're going to trip and fall and break something, you might as well look good.

Rob Ryan Tiles and Prints

Happy_300There's something about Rob Ryan's prints that makes ME happy. I first spotted them at Shelf on Cheshire Street and then I ran into them again on Sunday in one of the shops on Columbia Road.

I hope he doesn't mind me borrowing this image from his Web site. Maybe I'll buy something from his etsy shop to make up for it...

Banana Republic in London: March 20th

Br_cr_2Clean lines are good. Simple things are good. And although I obviously like my accessories both golden and/or sparkly, I like my clothes to be straightforward and tidy. Thank God for Banana Repubic. I can see myself in this ensemble. Maybe I'll wear it to their Regent Street grand opening in London. Assuming I'm invited, that is.

Bill Amberg Gold French Purse

Gold_walletSuddenly, I want to buy everything golden. And sparkly. I saw this golden french wallet on Bill Amberg's site and I covet it. I want it now. Will I be able to resist the temptation? Or will I click Add to Basket? Luckily for my current wallet, this puppy is out of stock! (But it is still available in black or brown.)

£195. From Billamberg.com.
