Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryI'm almost insulted by the lack of good diaper bags out there-- just because we have diapers to change and are running on 3 hours of sleep a night it doesn't mean we've lost our sense of style! Our readers are constantly asking us to suggest a hip and cool diaper bag but we've never been able to find one (until now). Of course it took Rebecca Minkoff to come out with a diaper bag that even urban chic moms can tote with pride. Not only is this a trendy and fun diaper bag, it's also very functional. Aside from the obvious (spill proof nylon, diaper changing pad, and multiple pockets for bottles, diapers, etc) her signature fringe details that will come in handy when the baby is fussy and wants to pull on something (my son loved pulling on things, they have actual toys that serve this sole purpose). Rebecca Minkoff Zipper Baby Bag here for $395

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryNeed I tell you how much I love Elle UK, more than any other fashion magazine? It's true. It's been a love affair for almost 20 years, even since I was a co-ed on the U.C. Berkeley campus. After class, I would head over to Cody's Bookstore on Telegraph Avenue and browse through all the fashion magazines. Don't get me wrong, I do love my American fashion mags (and I subscribe to them), but the UK edition has always had much better fashion features and editorial in my book. And now, this is best issue ever with Elle's 25th Anniversary Special Collector's Issue with Kate Hudson looking super modern 80's glam on the cover. Watch the behind the scenes video with Kate here. There are 5 special edition covers to collect. In addition to Kate Hudson, pick up Helena Christensen, Coco Rocha, Naomi Campbell, and John Galliano. The issue features an exclusive interview with Dolce & Gabbana and a unique collaboration with John Galliano. Supermodel Naomi Campbell gives a candid interview and Helena Christensen stars in new shoots along with Patti Smith, Alexander Skarsgrd and Rachel Even Wood. Model of the moment, Coco Rocha, smoulders in an extraordinary fashion story that celebrates 25 essential elements of timeless style. For you lucky UK readers, pick up this issue now! For those of us in the US and elsewhere, it might take a bit of time but be on the look out at your favorite newsstand/bookstore or buy it online. This issue is not to be missed! See more online at Elle UK's Special 25th Birthday section!

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryWe get a fair share of questions from our readers and in the wake of the new iPods we received a few preguntas somewhere along the lines of, “Great, new stuff, but what do I do with my existing iPod?” Sometimes the best satisfaction comes from taking something you already have and breathing new life into it. So, in the wake of the tidal wave of new iPods we thought it fitting to refer you to a piece of gear that you might know about. It’s the new Silver Dragon (version 3) iPod/iPad/iPhone Line Out Dock Cable ($65+). No, the name isn’t sexy, but what it does is. This isn’t some overpriced dock cable, it’s a cable that literally transforms the audio pumping out of your iPod/iPad/iPhone by bypassing a chip inside called the DAC, the digital-analog converter chip that turns your music from 1’s and 0’s to actual audio. In the whole battle of quality over quantity, most of us have grown accustomed to the shit-quality (pardon) of MP3’s and compression in an effort to save hard drive space. Combine this with spare-bin DAC’s that do a poor job of conversion and you’ve got a recipe for hot garbage. To offset, audiophiles have made extensive (and expensive) modifications to get their tracks piped conversion-free into their sound systems. Moon Audio’s wonder-cable accomplishes much of that work with the convenience of a single cable utilizing a unique construction comprised of silver Teflon-insulated conductors, Kevlar, and a very specific threading. Whether it’s Jay-Z, Bach, or Phoenix pumping into headphones, loudspeakers, or a portable speaker dock you’ll hear music in an entirely different way. More bass, more tonality in high frequencies, and most importantly, rich mid-range making this cable one of the fastest and most economical way of experiencing your music in a whole new light. Take Note: Since LOD means “line out” you’ll need to make sure you hook this up to an amplifier and a lineup of high quality tracks (those old 128 kbps rips from college won’t cut it here). Buy Now: $65+

As a nod to our holiday weekend and nearing end of summer, here's a snapshot Bob took during our recent road trip when we were in Carmel by the Sea.

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StorySo I went to a wedding last weekend, the dresses were beautiful, the shoes were lovely, buteveryonein the briday partyhad body art. Maybe it is a generational thing, but when I see tatoos, especially on womenAND especially when the women are dressed up, the first thing I think is “Eeww.” Then I was wandering around online and saw this photo.It is Kat Vod D promotingthe opening of her new Gallery in West Hollywood. Here is a bangin body, a pretty face, a wonderful dress, and great shoes. I understand the reason for Kat’s tats (tee hee)is part of her self-promotion, but the body ink just detracted theattention from her outfit. I told my daughter that in50 years,nurses in care centers will be sniggeringabout tramp stamps, fullsleeves and boob/chest tatooson the 80 year old patients. She just rolled her eyes at me. So, what do you think?Is body art attractive? Is it distractive?

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryEach occupation has a tool they cant live without. For a golfer, its his clubs. For a cop, its his gun. But unless youre using a nine iron to smash in the window of an Escalade in Florida, or using a 9mm to accidentally shoot yourself in the leg in a New York nightclub, these tools dont serve much of a purpose outside their designated confines. Theres a little known tool in the arsenal of firefighters that goes beyond just the fire scene and can easily be incorporated into any garage or tool shed. The Halligan Bar ($240, also referred to as the Hooligan Bar, is a staple in the fire service and can best be described as the product of a long drunken night between a crowbar, pick axe, and sledgehammer. One end of the tool contains a fork shaped claw, while the other is made up of a wedge and a pick. On a fire scene, the tool is used for everything from breaking down doors to putting holes in walls. At home it acts as an ideal substitute to three stand alone tools vital to any good tool collection. Buy Now: $240 By Jeff Mirabello

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryIt's funny, while I love feminine details, I'm very really ladylike. My ruffles tend to veer towards deconstructed, and looking put together feels a little "ladies who lunch" to me. But I had this beautiful dress by Christian Francis Roth that was tailored and classic looking, yet color-wise had a bit of edge. I believe my fianc's exact words were, "That dress is screaming at me from behind a veil." And I knew it would be a perfect start to a look that would exemplify fall's trend of ladylike grace!I paired the dress with a cardigan with pearl buttons, ohmygosh I can't believe I even own that! It reminds me a little of Eloise at the Plaza ;) A belt on top, because a lady always shows off her figure, and then some close to kitten heels. They're probably two inches, which isn't tall but I maintain a kitten heel much be less than that! I couldn't resist my wacky sunglasses though, at least they're oversized!Don't you love how Kyoko is photo bombing my picture? She kept running in circles around me while I twirled, ahah.I'm wearing:Dress - FrancisCardigan - J.

Posted 19 hours 15 minutes ago - 09/03/10 - Full StoryFashionable Media Review Policy: The featured product for this review was provided to me, at no cost, by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing. Opinions expressed are my own and are not influenced by monetary compensation. About the Kikou Kikou–a unique and fashionable clothing cover-up to protect moms clothing from spit-up, drool and other yucky stuff! The Kikou (Japanese for armor and pronounced kee-koo) is a stylish, machine-washable wrap that protects your clothing, your modesty (makes a great nursing cover), and your rep. Featuring an absorbent cotton outer layer and a waterproof lining with a grosgrain tie around the waist, the Kikous stylish fit and hip, modern prints are perfect for the busy, modern mom. Other features include: * Simple wrap design for easy-on/easy-off access that wont interfere with hair and makeup * Full coverage protection ensuring even backs, necks, and upper arms are adequately covered * Waterproof to prevent leak-through: our laminated polyester waterproof lining is CPSIA-certified as PVC, Lead, Phthalate, Latex, BPA and Formaldehyde-free * Durable to last through multiple children * Machine washable for ease of care * Velcro coin at the chest for quick and easy, one-hand closure * Convenient pocket for cell phone, pacifier, tissues, etc * Makes a great nursing cover, too: prevents having to get the nursing cover off quickly and burp cloth on your shoulder even faster * Generous 2-yard ribbon tie, so one size fits all * Made in the USA Comes in a variety of styles: Our Review The Kikou is very well made and washes up nicely. It definitely is a one size fits all. My 10-year-old daughter can wear it, as well as I can. It does its job of covering clothing from getting stained from spit up. It doesn’t fall off your shoulder like a burp cloth does, nor does spit up still get on your clothing because it provides better coverage than a burp cloth does. This is a very versatile product as I can see how it could be used as a nursing cover, although I have not tried it yet since I just read that suggestion today! Ok, I just tried it and it works for nursing too. The Kikou is made of fabric heavy enough that it won’t slip off while breastfeeding, but light enough that it will still work as a summer nursing cover and not be too warm. Although, I can see how the lining may cause a nursing mother to perspire more in the summer heat. Other suggestions of use are: * During messy arts & craft time with the kids…no more being scared of paints and glue! * At bath time…go ahead and splash! * Making dinner…extra sauce! * Breakfast in the car…keep that coffee off your Kors! I wish the Kikou had been around when I had my first child who spit up the worst of all our children.
