The Pampered Princess

Who couldn’t handle a little glamor in their life?  I’m not talking about going all out.  The glamor I am referring to involves simple things you can do here and there to add a little glamor, sparkle, or *sizzle* to your every day life. 

 I like to do this by adding something with a little sparkle to my every day attire.  Whether it’s a pair of star-studded over-sized sunglasses or a shirt that sports a little splash of sequins, I like to add a little pizzazz here and there.  I may carry a sparkly bag or upgrade my pedicure to include the little flower with the sparkling flower.  It can even be as simple as sparkling body lotion to give my skin a shimmery glow or glistening deodorant. 

It is important not to go overboard, or take to a higher level of tacky.  The point isn’t necessarily for others to see and appreciate the glamor.  This is ALL ABOUT ME, really.  It’s a self-pamper of sorts.  :)  I am in touch with my inner diva even if nobody knows but me!

I think you could have fun with this one, by making someone “diva for a day.”   You could put together a collection of glamorizing items.  Some can even be silly.  What a fun gift for a girlfriend who’s knocking on that next decade of her life.  The price-range can be managed by the items that you add.  Keep it simple with sparkly lotion and sunglasses, or go all out with an entire collection of items.  You could even include some glamorous diva slippers and a pair of silky pj’s.  If you find something a little bazarre, it might make for even more fun! 

Ahhhh…. the iphone.  What a beautiful thing.  If you’re into gadgets this is the phone to get.  (assuming you are using the right wireless provider, that is) You can flip through your contacts as easily as flipping through pages in a book.  Everything you need is at your fingertips and if you tip the phone sideways, the screen automatically flips.  It is just so COOL!

 Being a lover of gadgets, I pined away for one of these new gizmos.  Since I use Sprint, however, this one wasn’t an option for me.  I went for the alternative, Sprint’s Touch Phone.  It is reasonably similar, although it doesn’t do the automatic screen-switch-a-roo.  Still, it’s pretty cool.  If you’re in the market for something new and fun in the way of phones, you should check out either of these.  I love that I can watch television, surf the Internet, and check my email from virtually any location. 

Gift It!

This is one of those rather expensive items.  If you’re looking for something really special, this is one to consider for your favorite gizmo-lover.  Price is in the $500 neighborhood.
