    Color Customize your iPhone with @ColorWare!

    Not everything in life is just black and white—and now either is your iPhone 4S! I made the switch from the Blackberry Bold 9700 to the iPhone 4S about a month ago and I am in love. The iPhone does everything my Blackberry did and more, although I’m still a bit nostalgic about the loss of Blackberry Messenger (RIP bbm </3). While I have no complaints about the phone itself, I have to admit that with my whole family being iPhone-ers, it can get confusing. To add a personal touch, I tried out the Kate Spade case (hate it—its bulky and it cracked within the week) and then a pink Apple Bumper, but wasn’t satisfied with either. I had heard about customizing the back glass panel of my iPhone with a color of my choice for a small fee and seeing as I’ve been going through phone cases like I own a store, I figured it was worth a shot.

    I did some research online and saw that there are countless colors and combinations to create.

    Now, my iPhone looks like this (and I absolutely love it) —

    As designer Bill Blass so eloquently said, “When in doubt, wear red.” 😉

    New @DucatiUSA x @iSkin

    Last month, I went to the New York Ducati store reopening  and was blown away by all the hot bikes and enthusiasts. Funny I noticed how everyone was taking pics with the iPhone 4S.  What a brilliant collabo!  The best Mac accessory company iSkin and Ducati did a special collection just in time for Christmas.

    The Ducati Collection by iSkin has been borne from these two great brands to produce stylish, protective carriers and holders for high-tech devices, that will fulfill the desires of performance-inspired technoistas the world over. The distinctive looks and superior quality of the product line, which feature the highest quality, premium fabrics like Italian nylon, and a Red/Black/White color scheme, will ignite the passion of envious onlookers.

    “Ducati has a rich history of performance and quality,” says Andrew Ackloo, iSkin President and CEO. “This partnership allows us to provide the style-conscious tech consumer the chance to participate in that history in a very unique way.”

    “We are delighted to be teaming-up with iSkin, a company which clearly champions the same product passion as Ducati,” said Lucio Attina, Director of Ducati Apparel & Brand Development. “Their innovative design and style combined with high performance functionality, mirror the fundamental features of our motorcycles and we now look forward to the association as we prepare for 2012.”

    The collection is cut to universally fit the world’s most loved devices. Some key pieces include the Sling, an innovative body messenger bag for iPad, iPad 2, or similar-sized tablets and netbooks. The Jimmy, with spacious compartments to hold your laptops, tablets, other devices and much more. Summit puts an urban flair to iPad and iPad 2 (or similar-sized tablets and netbooks) sleeves, and delicately carries your device in strikingly lightweight, padded Italian nylon, reminiscent of current winter trends. The Lil Keeper is its smaller kin and adds a much needed fashion punch to point-and-shoot camera and iPhone 4/4S pouches out there. A brand new line of sleek, ultra-thin cases will also be available soon for the latest iPhone and BlackBerry® models.

    The complete Ducati Collection by iSkin is available immediately at iSkin.com/Ducati and a selection of the collection will be available at shop.ducati.com. It will be rolled out to select premium outlets in the coming months.
