If you give me the choice between going to a technology trade show versus fashion week, I'd actually have to give it a lot of thought. Alas, I missed the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas earlier this month. Thankfully my Twitter feed and favorite tech blogs have kept me up to date on all the new products. Amidst all the new netbooks and cameras, there's a gadget called Firefly that made its debut last week and causing lots of buzz. The speaker dock works with all versions of the iPod, iPod Touch, and iPhone. It comes with two speakers and a subwoofer which means this little guy packs quite a punch. Still not convinced? The Firefly took home this year's Innovation award for design and engineering at CES and is only $130. Now you just have to pick between red, black, and silver!
What: the Firefly Speaker Dock
Price: $129.95
Where to Buy: Vestalife

Leave it to Stila to create yet another must-have beauty item. Known for their fun colors and innovative multi-tasking formulas, Stila's smudge pots and lip glazes have earned the company a loyal following. Not to be outdone with their fabulously helpful talking eye palettes, they've recently come out with a product that speaks to both my beauty obsessed and geeky personalities! The Stila makeup player can be described as a train case, sound system and your own private makeup artist all in one. Just download the how-to videos from Stila, load them up onto your iPod Touch (or any other video compatible player), plug it into the makeup player and follow along with the step by step tutorials. The makeup player also comes with some of Stila's best selling items: the One Step Makeup Foundation, and Eye Shadow Trio & #7 Eye Shadow Brush, Convertible Color for cheeks and lips, and their Lip Glaze in Grapefruit. And in true multi-tasking Stila spirit, you can also use the player to blast your favorite music as you put on your makeup or even load up some YouTube videos of your favorite beauty gurus!
Price: $69.90
