If you fancy accessorising your new iPhone with the celeb fave Juicy Couture then check out the latest additon of  JC iPhone gels. They are available in three pastel colours, white, strawberry and lime green, cute -  even if they do look a bit like sweeties and the set goes for $55.  The  ”iChoose Juicy” logo  is stamped on the back just in case people wonder who it’s made by!

Got one of the new iPhones? Is the battery life in need of a boost ? Well, fret no more, help is at hand with the all new Apple certified ‘Juice Pack 3G’ from Mophie. The juice pack is a battery in the form of a non slip soft grip case.

The standby time from your juice pack will be an impressive 350 hours, talk time and internet time will be 6 hours, audio playback of 28 hours and video time of 8 hours. All sounds pretty good!

You can pre-order the juice pack on line, if not it  is expected to be available in late September for around £50.

OK, so I think these look a bit like a pink baby crocodile but how cool to actually have a decent pair of hair straighteners that you can carry around in your handbag.

They’re are cordless, rechargeable and have three temperature settings of 160, 180 and 210 thanks to high quality ceramic plates so will do the job when straightening the thickest of hair (like my unruly curls!!)

With a heat up of time of 1 minute and lasting for up to 60 minutes, they’re great for doing some last minute hair straightening after work, before a night out on the town! Gotta look good girls.

The plates are heated up separately and the straightners have a locking switch at the base to keep them closed when you’re carrying them around, so practical too.

They come with a handy heat-proof carrying pouch, wouldn’t want to melt our new iPhones now would we and of course the all important mains charger to juice them up before you go out.

Available on line starting from around £65.
