Gadget Girl

I'm excited to introduce this new series called Gadget Girl
that will feature fun new gadgets that every LVP girl needs!
They're fun, practical, & genius! Have fun looking through!


                        a, b, c, d, e

- Separate your cords that are always getting jumbled up with this cute and practical accessory.

- Rechargeable batteries are the way to go. Recharge at a USB port. No more carrying around a million batteries or huge rechargers with 3 different wires. A great green solution too!

- No more looking in the drawer for the right spoon and no more switching between 100 spoons while cooking, with this click 'n go spoon set!

- Check out this cute fun new lunch box. Your kid would be the coolest one on the table. I would so own this as an adult as well, I just wouldn't take it out in public (work/school). But that's a personal choice!

- Fun new stamps you have to have!

Inside Ralph Lauren's Holiday Home

When Ralph Lauren was a little boy in Bronx he fell in love...with a pair of blue suede shoes, but he couldn't afford them at the time. Now "what I do is about living," says Lauren, With about 300 stores all over the world, and $11 billion in sales, Ralph Lauren & Polo Ralph Lauren, are household names. Architectural Digest shows us inside his, and wife Ricky's, Jamaican holiday villa on Round Hill, near Montego Bay. They have transformed the place into a sunny and bright escape. Take a look: 

Asian Antiques, such as old ginger jars and chinoiserie mirrors add an exotic feel to the living room 



"We live on the veranda," Ralph Lauren says of the loggia/dinning terrace. "The goal was to make our family comfortable in a luxurious setting," explains Ricky Lauren, who wrote a book about Jamaica called My Island. "We go there as often as we can escape."


“It had carpeting inside and outside; that’s strange in Jamaica,” Ricky Lauren says of the residence, built in the 1950s. “It took a lot to restore it. Now it’s like a plantation house.”
The master bedroom has banana-leaf matting. Mosquito netting, Ralph Lauren Home.

In 1996 the couple purchased a beach house just down the hill and renovated it. They named it the White Orchid. The interior courtyard. “The great house has a classic feel,” says Ralph Lauren. “The White Orchid is clean, barefoot and luxurious."




Marble floors were installed in the living room. Hurricane lamps, Ralph Lauren Home.



The couple expanded the pool deck. The beach house is “like being on a boat,” notes Ralph Lauren. “The greenness of Jamaica is gorgeous. The air is very mild. It feels like a paradise. There’s a naturalness and ease of living. It smells like a beautiful place.”

It's definitely like being on a boat, and I would love to be his guest and stay in that beach house!
