New York Fashion Week: Vivienne Tam Fall 2009
Vivienne Tam Netbook Plus Heart Earbuds Equals Love
I know I said that the Vivienne Tam HP Mini Netbook was a January Must Have, but I think it deserves to be a Valentine's Day must have as well. The color, the functionality, the fact that it fits in your purse (In. Your. Purse.) . . . I honestly can't get enough. And I'm feeling a little guilty since the mark up on this baby is over $300 dollars, but it's just so hard to say no to a gadget this beautiful.

So if you're lucky enough to get your hands on one, and looking for something to go along with your new netbook, check out these red Heart Earbuds for a more reasonable $12. These two are totally made for each other.

The Vivienne Tam HP Laptop Pops Up on HP's Website
I feel like I've been anticipating this news forever — almost as much as Netflix coming to Macs — and I can finally say that the HP Vivienne Tam Special-Edition Notebooks are available to purchase on HP's US website!
I know, you know, I'm a Mac girl, but when I saw this drool-worthy digital clutch on-board the Virgin America Gogo WiFi test flight, I was totally smitten. And with a starting price of only $700, I'm seriously considering saving up for one.
