Mulberry Going Zodiac Crazy

I am not a superstitious one - but I can't help to check my horoscope every now and then. Well, just for fun really. And sometimes it's kinda fun to check your own personality traits thru the zodiac thingy. It makes you go... "ooh, I like that", or "uh uh..I don't think I'm like that". LOL!

And it's kinda cool too when Mulberry comes up with these keyrings in zodiac signs. Each star sign is crafted in luxurious metallic silver with colored enamel detail. They are also available in gold version. However you wanna use it - on bag, or for keychain - is up to you really.

Hmm.. can I get a Scorpio please?!







Samsung Goes Lite 'Touch'

The name's Tocco - means 'touch'. After the recent success of it's touchscreen phone, Samsung continues to offer the latest in the Tocco series. Hail the new Samsung Tocco Lite. The sub-ultra version of Tocco Ultra (and sans the touch buttons).

What do I like most about this phone is its clean look. Very streamlined, simple and chic. The color is just so urbane. Very masculine. Since reviews said that Tocco's one the most responsive of all iPhone wannabes, I believe this one might be too. And for those who can't get off Facebook and Myspace, well... glad to say that there's a widget for that. So you may not miss to poke someone or update ur FB status.

But some drawbacks though. It's not 3G. And the camera's only 3.2 MP.

So what's underneath that cool silhouette?

  • Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity
  • 3 inch TFT touchscreen display with 262K color and 240 x 400 pixels
  • TouchWiz UI
  • Accelerometer
  • Facebook, Myspace and YouTube widgets.
  • Bluetooth 2.1
  • Samsung DNSe 2.0 Music technology
  • FM Radio with RDS
  • 3.2 MP camera, with video capture capability
  • 50 MB of built-in memory (expandable with microSD card up to 8 Gb)
  • Dimension: 104 x 53 x 11.9 mm
  • Weight: 92 g

And err.. doesn't it look just like the LG Renoir? Hmm...

Watch Talk: Hot Watches @ Burberry

Wowsa! Spring/Summer collection this time is definitely hot. Latest in the accessories department @ Burberry is an array of gorgeous and hot watches. Not just your typical watch, but something that can definitely become something to talk about.

The first one is this black ionized plated stainless steel case with modern interpretation of Burberry check on black coloured dial. What is so damn cool is the black and white fabric check strap. Very chic, very masculine, very Burberry SS09. The watch is water resistant up to 5 ATM/ 50m. Price? A whopping $395 (that's about £275).

The other two new watches are seen at the previous Burberry Prorsum SS'09 men's runway show. One is this antique gold-plating case in dark brown bridle leather, and the other is an antique palladium case with military inspired dial and sand colored bridle leather. What's so cool is the multiwrap strap, resembles the rock-n-roll kinda cuffs. The minute hands and numbers is in luminova (err... that's the fluorescent kinda thing, that glow-in-the dark if you like). The watches are water resistant up to 3 ATM/ 30m. Price? $495 for the sand-colored, and $595 for the gold-plated, brown strap.

I know what I like... the check one! It suits my Burberry tote in similar check design. So gonna get it!
