HP Notebook "China Chic" Creeps Onto the Runway



Hewlett Packard has done it again by partnering with none other than Vivienne Tam. The two have launched a special edition laptop, which looks to be "the" accessory for tech geek fashionistas everywhere. HP and Vivienne Tam unveiled the design of the new "digital clutch" at Vivienne Tam's fashion show at Bryant Park during New York's Fashion Week.

This is definitely a milestone for fashion and technology and I'm so excited! This is the first time that a computer has partnered with a famous fashion designer... plus the 'digital clutch' is just too cute. Viviene Tam even worked with HP to design all the notebook's accessories and even the packaging.

Spring 2008 Trends "Gadgetized"

Spring 2008 is coming fast and the styles range from Global (think Angelina Jolie mixed with the Queen of Sheba) to Goddess. I’m really excited about the new trends because they reflect the women of today: powerful, business-minded, eco-friendly goddesses and traveling divas. And of course, gadgets are needed to make these trends come to life! Here are four of my favorite Spring 2008 Trends and my suggestions on how to “gadgetize” (to accessorize using gadgets) them.


The Global Woman
Spring 2008 brings in a global theme that focuses on tribal-like patterns, bright colors mixed with earth tones, and natural but strong makeup! Every global woman needs a multilingual electronic talking dictionary. Try this one, the E15C800, by Ectacto which includes a car charger, headset, microphone and power converters for any country. Pair it with this cute global-inspired dress from Etro’s Women Spring 2008 Collection and you’re ready for any tribal adventure.
