Virtual Mirror makes trying on clothes a snap

Friday, August 29th, 2008

I may be the only girl in the world that doesn’t particularly love trying on clothes. Sure, I like getting new threads but having to go through that process is both tedious and time consuming. But now, the Virtual Mirror promises to make trying on clothes a breeze, and you don’t even have to take off your jacket.

The Virtual Mirror can help you decide what clothes will look best on you quickly. It works by overlaying an image of your clothing of choice over your picture. There are some software programs out there that already perform this task, but the idea here is to help you make decisions while actually out and about.

The only problem is that the technology has not been perfected to the point yet where the overlaid clothing image looks realistic over your image. But given a little time, I think this is rather promising.

Pink Lining’s Rose Plates Laptop Bag

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Finding a bag that is overly feminine can mean a great many things. For some it’s some bright pink monstrosity, for others it is something a little more understated.

Be it either chic with expensive leather work or something a little more cute, like this bag. It features a quirky design and there is no mistaking it as anything but girly. From the cute little hearts and bows to the pink zipper.

It is sold by Quirky Bags who isn’t going to make things easy by just saying what size laptops would fit. Instead they give the overall dimensions of the bag, which are 40 x 30 x 10cm. Those in the UK are in luck because this bag offers free shipping for you. It will cost you £100.00 or about $195.

Overly feminine line of DS accessories

Friday, August 1st, 2008

These girly accessories for your DS look a bit like cosmetic cases. It actually also includes a screen cleaner that looks identical to a compact for your face powder. I do like that although the case is overly feminine, it isn’t the usual bright pink.

Granted the inside of the hard case for your games features a bright pink, but it doesn’t go for the cop out color that many other cases do. It also includes a stylus that goes with the case a bit better. Although I’m sure there will be a great deal of ladies who find this cheesy, there will likely be at least a couple that enjoy these almost Victorian style accessories.

The hard case to store your games is priced at just under $10, the screen cleaner compact for about $7.50, stylus for $6.50, the case for your DS is $11 and the soft case to put all of this in is $14. You can also pick up some screen protectors for $6. None of it is overly expensive, unfortunately though it’s a Japanese product so you’ll have to pay for it to be shipped all the way to you.
