Talk Nerdy to Me : Girly Gadgets

Dudes get the coolest stuff. Game consoles and James Bond-ish accessories being the top 2. Personally, I'm over gadget sexism. So I've gone on yet another mission to find some cool girl toys (Think actual toys... not that "personal massager").

 OMG! Your USB Flashdrive is so cute!

I never thought I'd want someone to say that to me, but I do.  Mimobots are adorable USB Flashdrives with flare. With models like "Gigglebyte" and "Fairybit Fairybot" I can now look cute while I dumbly twirl my hair and pretend to be interested in the inner-workings of my computer. Maybe now that boy from Geek Squad will return my call.

Man, this might just be my every day bag.

You spend hours of time and hundreds of dollars on making sure your new purse is perfect, right? All the while your laptop bag is mediocre at best. Never again. Plastic People have made completely cute laptop bags that come with a matching clutch and mirror. Check 'em out and get noticed by that shaggy haired nerd-o at the coffee shop. Who knows, maybe you'll convince him to buy your latte?

I'm too selfish for children.

But most broads are not. Babykick.com is dedicated to making sure babies are healthy from conception all the way to birth. Check out the Baby Kick Counter, at 24 weeks you can stay in the know on your baby's movements and remain in sync with your doctor about your due date. When the big show begins, it'll help you time your contractions too. It even stores your last ten uses, in case you forgot how many times the baby kicked your kidneys. Amazing.

I'm an idiot and leave candles burning all the time.

I always come home to broken glass and melted wax in my carpet. Not anymore. MoMA's Smart Candles saved the day. Flameless, scentless and waxless, this LCD-lit candle's light moves and flickers like an actual candle, but without the muss and fuss. Which is great because if I smell "Spiced" anything one more time, I'll throw up.

I call this my "Zit Blaster 400." Lazers are so cool.

Small enough to fit in your purse, the Marvel-Mini Rejuvenating Facial Light Therapy makes it oh-so-easy to be a zit fighting ninja. Blue light kills the bacteria that causes acne and stimulates the natural process of cell healing. Ah, professional results in my bedroom. Love it.

LIPfusion, LASHfusion, LIFTfusion... oh my!

Add GLOWfusion to that list, now. Fusion Beauty got all scientific on us once again and is giving dope spray tans out like candy. This thing blows out a sheer fine mist of bronzey goodness for a seamless tan every time. All in the privacy of your own bathroom.

I don't like other people touching my face, anyway.

Love a good facial. There's nothing better than feeling how smooth and soft my skin is after a spa day. I've run the gamut, from professional facials all the way to the at-home-ingredients-out-of-my-cupboards-facial. I'm pretty stoked about Artemis Woman's at home Professional Facial Center, so I can stop sticking my dinner on my face. It does it all: steams, warms the mud for the facial...even gives you a facial spatula to slather it all on. And, best of all, it's on clearance. Check it out.

I better not find any of his stupid beers in this thing.

I know, I know. You're supposed to throw your makeup out and replace it on a regular basis. But, I don't normally feel like it. Now I can keep my makeup cool and fresh, not to mention keep all of my expensive creams from going runny with the b7. A cooler that goes in your bathroom thats been specially designed to refrigerate cosmetics (Does this mean I can't stash emergency vodka in it?). Keep your stuff fresh so you can save money to buy my drinks.

I've always been a gadget freak and I always envied my brother for all the manly gadgets he purchased. When I got my very first paycheck I went out and bought myself a portable CD player (that was the coolest thing back then and yes, I had a very nice salary). He was so envious!

I was planning on getting the Vaio FJ Series notebook in Jade Green, but that model was recently discontinued. My only problem is trying to decide whether I want the pink or the green…

I just bought a great bag from bestbuy made by Swiss. (the outside says Swiss mobility)
It looks very nice and has a lot of room. It's not quite as girly as the one above, but I like that it's a bit more sophisticated while still obviously meant for a female. (or some guys... who am I to judge?)

A real geek wouldn't have misspelled 'laser'.

The laptop bag is very cute...but like all cute laptop bags, there is room for your laptop & ONLY your laptop. What about any power cords, usb & firewire cords, usb hard drives, a mouse, discs, etc., that you want to bring along? Would it kill them to make a big pocket pouch on the side to accommodate other things!!
My current laptop case has a pocket on the side so narrow I can barely slip paper into it...I pretty much NEVER use that bag.

Of course I don't think women are only interested in cute or cosmetic things. Personally I'd love to discuss Astronomy, and so would Kris. I'd also crap my pants if I could figure out some way to incorporate war tactic's of ancient Chinese armies into my posts, somehow. But, since this is a beauty site, dedicated to all things adorable... I don't really know how to bridge the gap, so... I do my best. Thank you so much for your interest in Sparkleshelf.com.

"Personally, I'm over gadget sexism."

So you went out and made a sexist post about how chicks only care about cute and/or cosmetic gadgets?

What's the blue light in the zit blaster? In order to kill any bacteria, it would have to be UV light because it harms the bacteria's DNA thus killing the bacteria, the only draw back would be it harms human DNA too..I think I'll stick with a small red bump thanks.

Those laptop bags are fairly cute. There are not NEARLY enough nice laptop bags for women out there.

I too like candles for their scent but i have to say that i have candles like these on my mantle and the effect is stunning. They're great for outdoor parties (in the evening of course) because the wind cant get them!

those flash drives are too cute!

I want that fridge! I would stash my vodka there as well. But I like candles for the scent, so I'll pass on the LCD ones.

I love the Mimco flash drives. They had a nice booth at this years NYC Comic Con.
