Zzzzz “it” Sleep Cycle iPhone App
Ever woken up feeling completely wrecked when the alarm clock goes off, despite the fact that you have slept “enough” hours? ”Good Morning” ring like an oxymoronic start to the day for you? Do you hit the snooze button for 45 minutes?
Then you’re going to love this little iPhone app: Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock. When the above happens you’ve probably been awakened during a deep sleep phase, and your whole day can turn into one long zombie marathon.
Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock monitors your sleep patterns all night long as you move between light and deep sleep cycles in order to calculate a target ‘wake-up window’. Then in that window it will wake you up when you reach a point of light sleep. Pro: you’re never startled out of a deep sleep by your alarm, which leaves you feeling better rested right when you wake up and allowing you to get up out of bed after the first alarm.
This isn’t really something new. These so called bio-alarm clocks have been around for years and work very well, but they usually come with a hefty $200 price tag. “I realized that the iPhone has all the components needed, and decided to make an alarm clock that works exactly the same, but sell it for a dollar or two instead.” Maciek Drejak, the programmer behind the application.
I’m so not a morning person, but the demands of my work have me at my desk by 7:30am. Sometime earlier when I’m navigating projects in different time zones. I’ve only been using this for a week, but already give it two thumbs up (very worth the $0.99).

Kookn Kappin “it”
April 24, 2013 | TassyTas
This chic bonnet Kookn Kap keeps the odor out of the hair and the hair out of the food!
This “it” gal is all about cooking and baking. You can find me spending all my evenings trying new recipes and the weekends testing them out with friends while entertaining. But the one thing I can never stand is the smell of cooking in my hair. I have no time to get a blowout or get ready before guests come; that was until I was introduced to a fabulous new concept.
When I make curries or BBQ I put on the cute pink Kookn Kap and kook away. They are cute little chef hats in pink and white with fun slogans. My fave is the “bitch in the kitch”.
I love this trendy version of a chef hat, so get yours and start Bitchin in the Kitchen!
One size fits all.
Responsible Life – Gucci “it” Watch
April 3, 2013 | Guest
In January 2013 it was announced that Gucci Timepieces and Jewelry were coming together with Chinese actress and Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations, Li Bingbing, on a new Collection – an eco-friendly limited edition Bamboo watch collection.
Each watch is handmade, as if that isn’t impressive enough; they are using bezel, a lightweight bamboo and have also created a bracelet to complete the collection. The bracelet is made of bamboo and Tagua nut, which is a vegetable ivory as opposed to using animal tusks.
You can purchase this watch online at Gucci, choosing from the three styles available. The collection is beautiful and simple with much attention to detail like the “Responsible Life” script you will find engraved into each piece. I think the silver accents the naturalness of the bamboo perfectly, making this piece a luxury watch must-have to keep wrapped around your pretty little wrist.

“it” Trend: Clear Clutch
March 19, 2013 | Lauren
This “it” accessory gives the simplicity of the clutch purse a whole new meaning. When many of us ladies turn to the clutch as a way of cutting back on the number of items we haul around in our purse, this new trend of the clear clutch will help you make the perfect item selections.
In the majority of these clutches, as you see, there is no area in the bag to keep something hidden. But this also allows you to have a little fun. Minimizing to your cell phone, a lipstick, small wallet, sunglasses, and a set of keys, with perfect placement will have people talking about how cute your new clear clutch is.
Or if you’re looking for a less bold version of this trend, try placing your contents in a fun coloured or printed pouch, that you then place into the clear clutch.
Either way this clear clutch trend is one to try, and it will have all of the other “it” girls talking about what’s in your bag.
