Cool Factor: Eight Things That Have It!

( Spinners )

As a blogger, I get around the Internet more than most. In doing so, I run across some fabulous finds, standout styles, and some things that just have that "cool factor." They have that certain "something" that makes you stop and look again. Today I share some of my latest finds with you. 

Wear Repair Lucky Back
Meet your everyday solution to support and improved posture. This shapewear top gently pulls shoulders back throughout the day. Best yet, it is made with skin enhancing copper fabric. You may have heard of the benefits of copper for our bodies and skin. This top seems to win on all levels. Read about it at

Until Dawn Screen
Bring nature into your home with Tord Boontje's panel of flora and fauna. This screen plays with light and can be used as a curtain, screen or wall hanging. Lovely in the nursery, the dorm room, or anywhere you want a little stylish statement of separation.

FORNASETTI 
Flora Diffusing Sphere
Candles are lovely, but they aren't art. A Diffuser scents the air like a candle can, but they do it without the danger of fire. This hand decorated ceramic sphere is decorated with the painting (and eyes) of opera singer, Lina Cavalieri. The scent was created by perfumer Emmanuel Philip. This is a sophisticated piece that makes me smile, and so will the person that receives this scented piece of art. P.S. It is priced less here than anywhere I could find it.

Nurse Jamie Beauty Bar Age Delay Pillow

 What the heck is it? That was my thought when I saw it featured on The Zoe Report yesterday. It's a way to fight wrinkles and puffiness while you sleep. Can you believe that you can actually dream your way into more restful skin?  It all makes sense to me. The unique shape and cutouts of the pillow makes sure that your delicate facial skin is not compressed by the pillow. I want to try it, because lines and puffy eyes are NOT cool!

Cool Gifts For The Tech Obsessed

If Your Walls Could Talk.......

( Via: My Pinterst Board )

It is this time of year, following the Holidays, that I always think my home feels a little dreary. If you feel the same, a good place to start is your walls. What are they saying? If they aren't speaking to you, they aren't interesting to others either. It is possible to dress your walls by purchasing online. You just have to know where to look.  Instagram is a good place to start looking for artists. That's where I found the terrific Tiffany La Belle. Her feed is very exciting. Art galleries can be a bit intimidating. There's none of that online. Here's an edit of wonderful ways to perk up your home and make those walls speak!
