Case-Mate Showcase Hosted by Fergie and Common

On September 13th, Case-Mate celebrated the launch of "Right Case. Right Occasion." advertising campaign, featuring Selena Gomez, Fergie and Common. Fergie and Common co-hosted the event, featuring a fashion show with models dressed in CZAR by Cesar Galindo Spring 2013 and accessorized with iPhone 5 cases. A dressing room setting, office and gym showcased models interacting with the newly launched cases. Guests enjoyed a hip hop set by DJ Mia Moretti followed by a special performance by Common.

Great Last Minute Gifts - Case-mate iPhone 4 and iPad Cases

I have been researching on iPhone 4 and iPad leather cases for awhile and Case-mate cases are at the top of my list. Case-mate has partnered with Nordstrom on an exclusive fall/winter collection, available in 114 Nordstrom stores across the country, at Nordstrom.com and case-mate.com.

The Barely There Leather iPhone 4 Case in embossed leather also comes with growing medium and seeds for your own desktop garden!

Barely There Leather Case, $38.00
The textured leather Venture iPad Case converts into a convenient stand when flipped open and has a snap closure. I love the contrast pink trim! This iPad case matches nicely with the Barely There Leather Case.

The Flip Wallet iPhone 4 Case is my favorite! It has a magnetic-closure flap with space for ID and two credit cards. Also great to put business cards in! The case comes with growing medium and seeds to grow your own desktop garden. It is considered a men's case, but I think it can be unisex. I would definitely use it - if only I had an iPhone 4!

Pepcom's Digital Experience! 2010

Back in June I attended Pepcom's Annual Showcase, Digital Experience! at the Metropolitan Pavillion. The media event showcased the latest innovations in computers and consumer electronics - including HDTV, videogames, satellite radio, DVD, digital audio, MP3 players, digital cameras, cellphones, PDAs and laptops, from leading technology companies including Kodak, Lenovo, Nikon, Nokia, Samsung, TiVo and Toshiba.

With "A Taste of Japan" theme, there were numerous dinner buffet stations setup, including a sushi bar and open bar areas.

Here's a look at some of my favorite digital finds and accessories.

Case-mate has a great selection of iPhone 4 cases, including the Lisboa case, with cork texture and grip, and metallic accents. I don't have an iPhone 4, but they have plenty of cases for the 3G / 3GS. I really like some of their new cases coming out, including the light wooden ones. You can also make your own custom case by uploading your own image or design, or choosing one of the I Make My Case Artist Series designs.

I love the look of this case. It's fashionable and colorful!

I can't wait to try this out - VuPoint Solutions® Magic Wand™ Portable Scanner (retails for $99.99). I can't tell you how much I dread having to walk over to the copier every time I need to scan something. I love how you can scan without leaving your seat, or take this with you and scan as you go! It's really lightweight and can scan 600 dpi high resolution and 300 dpi for standard resolution. It's along with black, it is available in a variety of colors - blue, red, green and purple - a fashionable scanner - I love it!

If you are looking for a stylish digital camera, check out GE's Create by Jason Wu. This camera has great image quality, with 12 megapixels, 2.7-inch LCD, built in memory and a retractable USB plug. It comes with a leather camera case, a microfiber camera pouch (which doubles as a lens cleaning cloth) and wrist and neck straps. Prices start at $179.99 for the 4GB model and go up to $229.99 for the 8GB version.

Nikon has several great SLR cameras to choose from, including 10.2, 12.1, 12.3 or 24.5 megapixel cameras. Now I have to choose which one is right for me.
