Must-Have: Touch screen liner glove

Categories: Outdoor Fun, Technology

No Comments

One of my favorite gifts from my husband this year was something that I didn’t even know existed, and now I can’t live without. He has a knack for that. He bought me a pair of touch screen liner gloves, which allow me to keep my hands covered when I’m checking Twitter/FB/Instagram or texting him to ask where, exactly, he is on the ski hill.

Eyeshadow: All That Glitters

While in New York a few weeks ago, I found myself admiring my friend Ali’s eyeshadow color. It was a neutral color, with some sparkle, but not too much sparkle. I asked her the name of the shadow (All That Glitters) and bought some the next time I was at MAC. I love it so much that I wear it nearly every day, and think it would suit almost any skin tone.

Did you know that you can shop at that tween/teen accessory haven, Claire’s, online? You can! No jostling through the mall, and all of the benefits of their current post-holiday clearance with none of the blaring music and jostling middle-schoolers.

Right now they’re clearing out both winter accessories (hats, gloves, scarves, legwarmers, etc.) and seasonal items (perfect stocking stuffers for next Christmas!), and the prices have never been lower. Spend $45+ and your order will ship for free, too.

Between birthday party gifts and getting a jump start on next Christmas, you could spend not very much and be stocked up for quite a while.

Great Deal: Still shipping in time for Christmas!

Outdoor Fun: A new ski jacket

Categories: General

No Comments

My family and I took up skiing last year, and while the ski jacket and pants I have were fully functional, they are also ten years old and a little outdated. Also, the blue-with-a-dash-of-white motif makes me look somewhat Smurf-like. My husband agreed, so last night we went on eBay and ordered me a pretty grey jacket to go with the black ski pants I plan on buying this week. The one I bought is from last season, but this one is also from Columbia and is very similar.

$180.00 @ Columbia.com

I love my iPhone and all of the fun photography apps I use, but when I saw this wheel of filters for a DSLR camera, I knew I wanted it. It’s probably too late to get it for Christmas, but My birthday’s in January.

My husband is upgrading to the iPhone 5 for Christmas (He’s still using a 3! It’s SO SLOW) and has told me that he’d love a really good iPhone case. A few friends of our have Otterbox cases, and this one with the camo back is perfect for my hunter husband.

Running hat with a ponytail holder

Winter hats are called ‘toques’ in Canada, and regardless of the country you are living in, hats help to keep you warm. My sister-in-law and I have committed to keep running outside all winter, so I wrote a post on my personal site asking for running gear recommendations. One item that was a hot ticket was a running toque with a hole built in for a pony tail. It’s sheer genius, in my opinion.
