LC Lauren Conrad and Rock & Republic Winter Favorites at Kohl's

Here are some of my winter favorites from LC Lauren Conrad and Rock & Republic at Kohl's. The LC Lauren Conrad striped maxi dress (on sale for $42) makes me wish spring weather was already here, while the heart skinny ankle jeans (on sale for $21.60) would be great paired with a sweater or cropped crepe blazer ($35) and ballet flats (on sale for $24.97). 

LC Lauren Conrad always has cute affordable jewelry, like these arrow, triangle and button and thread spool stud earring sets and key pendants. 

Rock & Republic winter wear features roll-tab shirts in forest and cheetah print (on sale for $24) and shoes from heels to wedge sneakers and ankle boots. One pair I think I need to add to my shoe collection is this pair of studded smoking flats (on sale for $32.97).

iPhone and iPad Tech Accessories for the New Year

Start off the new year with fashionable tech accessories for your iPhone and iPad. The Kavaj "Dallas" Cognac Case (available for iPhone 5 and 5S) is my favorite of leather phone cases. The genuine leather is super soft and thin and comes in cognac and black. This sleek wallet-style case with a microfiber-like flannel interior protects your phone from scratches or cracking your screen when you drop it. The slots in the back are perfect for storing small business cards and cash. Another amazing thing about this case? While other leather cases are in the $100 range, this one is priced at $29.90 at amazon.com.

The Magnetyze Protective Case for iPhone 5/5S ($59.99) magnetically charges your phone with the Magnetyze charging cable. This is a great way to charge up, especially since I've had issues with wear and tear on my phone's charge port and lightening to USB cables. The Magnetyze protective case is also compatible with other Magnetyze accessories including the external battery and desk, car and wall chargers so you can charge up at home, at the office or while traveling. 

The Justin Case 11,600 mAh Portable Charger iPad Case doubles as a case and a charger, to keep your iPad, iPhone or other devices charged and ready to use while you're on the go. It's equipped with a built-in rechargeable battery, universal USB charging port and USB wall adapter. The synthetic leather case is lightweight and slim, making it easy to travel with. The Justin Case comes in a several colors, with red exclusively available at qvc.com for $69.96.

It gently detoxifies the body from the inside out, to help restore its natural ability to grow fuller, stronger and healthier hair.

Its flexible-conditioning formula combines silk and wheat proteins with Panthenol and avocado for extra strength and hydration while Evening Primrose enhances shine. 

VOL Volumizing Spray is easy to use: mist evenly on towel-dried hair, lift sections and direct spray from the roots to the mid-shaft and style hair as desired. For extra volume, set with your blow dryer.

Caldrea Holiday Collection

Happy New Year! The holidays have come and gone, but you can still enjoy those holiday fragrances while stocking up on homekeeping products, from countertop sprays and dish soaps to hand soap, hand lotion and candle tins. Caldrea's newest holiday fragrance, Juniper Laurel Mint, joins Vanilla Quince Santal and Crimson Pear Ginger as part of the holiday collection. One of my favorite home fragrances this time of year is that fresh pine scent that Juniper Laurel Mint has, mixed with juniper, eucalyptus and Siberian Fir.

Crimson Pear Ginger is as juicy and bubbly as a light signature cocktail of citrus zest and holiday spice, with natural essential oils - mandarin, spearmint, ginger and cinnamon. Vanilla Quince Santal is a gathering of spicy vanilla, sweet fruits and warm amber. 

Caldrea's limited edition holiday collection is available at caldrea.com and birchbox.com.
