Snapette

Say hello to my new favourite fashion app. Think Instagram meets shopping, Snapette offers a news feed full of snaps of the latest fashions all tagged with prices and locations of where to pick them up from. Seriously what more could you need?

A cheeky snap of a 'new-in' shirt from your favourite store can be uploaded with a whole load of fun filters and shared with fellow fashionista's on the app. Or if you prefer to look rather than capture then simple browse though the most popular snaps taken in some of the top fashion cities across the world. One of the absolute perks and my favourite part of Snapette is being able to browse the nearby stores whilst sitting in a cafe or even laying in bed, just from the comfort of your smart phone. No more traipsing through the stores to find that perfect item, you can now scroll through the different categories in the app to find the exact item your looking for and locate it in a nearby store. Is this for real, you ask? Yes! I dare you not to fall in love as I have as soon as you download it (click here to download). I am totally hooked!

This fashion app match made in heaven has lead me to become the newest member of the Snapette team. Hello dream role! Currently based in London but soon to be based in New York in a matter of months. I seriously cannot wait to return to my favourite city. So for all you fellow fashion addicts, head over to the app store to download the Number 1 fashion app for FREE so we can keep up to date with each others finds. Or sign up online at https://www.snapette.com to browse, comment and love some amazing finds all over the world. Happy snapping people!

Oh before I forget, as one of the app's 'most loved' users, Snapette did a little feature about me on their blog. Check out the interview with Snapette here.

Go Go Gadget

Lets just start by saying that I am a bit of a gadget geek.

iPhone, Macbook Pro, iPad... a self-confessed Apple product junkie. 

The new iPad 3 is absolutely fantastic and the clarity and resolution is just out of this world.

My only one issue was finding something suitable to put it in. 

I have been cradling my new iPad like a baby for the past few weeks, making sure I dont put it anywhere where it could get scratched, fall or even get slightly tarnished. But the decision between sleeve, clip on case, skin or cover was all getting a bit too much, and with way too many choices out there, it was making it far too hard to decide. 

Finally the day has come. My iPad is all suited and booted and I no longer have to treat it like a precious child. 

I thought the days of Juicy Couture were behind me, back when I was 14 with my matching velour tracksuits and Terry towling handbags, but this hardshell case from Shopbop was just love at first sight. No little dog emblem or crown in sight, just arty sketches of my favourite city in the world, New York. Light enough to still pick up and play Temple Run, with enough coverage to stop it from being scratched. 

But of course one case wasn't enough. The studded leather iPad case turned clutch from Kurt Geiger is perfect to just carry it in when I'm out and about and just big enough to fit my iPad in with its hardshell on too. And having mine studded to my own specific design requests at FNO just makes it that bit more fabulous. 

A quick shout out for my new Wonka Bar iPhone case from Red Bubble. I get a this wonderful feeling that I'm going to visit Willy Wonka's factory tomorrow with Grandpa Joe, every time I look at it lets hope that feeling never wears off. 

Despite taking over a month to arrive from all the way over the pond, I love it!
