iPhone iCover iCandy iWant

Let me start by saying I'm slow to technology.

 I'll wait for my phone, camera, TV or laptop to scream its way to death before I replace it. 

As for my man? 

He upgrades when Apple twitches. 

I've resisted his insistence to replace my trusty Old School iPhone3 with his now discarded "old" iPhone4.

 But then he played dirty. 

He put in front of me a sparkly ruby red sequinned cover.

Every girl deserves a little bling in her life. So the iPhone4 and delicious cherry red cover are now mine.

Admiring my twinkling new toy (the cover, not the phone) 
got me thinking...

Exactly what else is out there???

It flatters every body shape and is appropriate at every age. It is perfect for any season and nearly every occasion—you can easily glam it up, or funk it down.

The classic black wrap dress and its various versions (mock wrap, crossover, ruched, empire-waisted, etc...) is a foundation piece for absolutely every wardrobe.

Proving its value as the go-to dress, just about every label and designer offer a version of this classic silhouette, making finding one in your price point easy.

It would be criminal of me to open this segment with anyone other than The Queen of the Wrap Dress—Miss Diane Von Furstenberg.

Here is a little charmer I couldn't pass up, great price and is available in diverse colors and styles (short, mid or long sleeve, collarless, various colors). The perfect wardrobe basic:
