As the Backstreet Boys song says (and yes I am actually quoting them) “My Love is All I Have To Give.” So with that throwback, here are this week’s list-worthy things…]

1. Michael Kors Gold Watch- While it’s not the cheapest thing on the block, its definitely a cheaper option as far as gold watches go. It’s Chunky, it’s cute and it’s made by my favorite Project Runway personality. Now if only I could get him to design me a one-of-a kind gown…

2. Did you ever wonder what you would look like with blonde hair? I did. When I was studying abroad in Florence and thought it would be a GREAT idea to surprise everyone by dying my hair blonde. Had I known about Taaz, I would have saved myself some money, and more importantly, a whole lot of embarrassment. Because as it turns out blonde hair – especially when done by dark-haired Italians? – so not my look. Taaz is a virtual makeover site. Upload your photo and see for yourself if you can pull of the Katie Holmes Bob or the Jenny Humphrey shag.

3. Flip Camera Designable. The Flip Cam was the best thing that came into my life in 2007. I’ve shot countless videos at the bar, on the street, and laughing with friends. And now, it’s even sleeker, making it easy to drop into your clutch to catch only the funniest and best drunken moments to embarrass everyone with in a senior-year slide show.

And what’s even cooler is that you can design your own Flip Cam, either by uploading a photo or choosing a design to go on the cover! Genius.

4. Michael Seasons Snacks. Imagine your favorite potato chips, soy chips, or salty treat. Now imagine it not making a pit stop on your thighs and making your jeans feel 10 sizes too small. Well, thanks to Michael Seasons you don’t have to imagine that any longer. All your favorite salty snacks, only all natural and healthier. There is a spot for this lovely, lovely man in Heaven.

5. Twelve by Twelve line. Forever 21′s version of a bit more chic and a bit more pricey (and by bit more pricey, I’d say still running between $30 and $70 dollars for a piece) fashion line. I love, love, love this dress. It screams one-of-a-kind but comes to you at a lovley mass-produced price ($36.00). Hol. ler.

Perhaps this is why the company decided to launch a new line called Twelve by Twelve. It will be directed towards a more sophisticated crowd and aim to have a more classic appeal.

Twelve by Twelve is being geared toward an older crowd, specifically women in their 20′s and 30′s. Despite this older demographic, the vintage jewelry and cocktail dresses appeal to me as more worthwhile pieces rather than pants from Forever 21 that will split in half a week later … while I’m reloading the copy machine at work.

Don’t get me wrong. Twelve by Twelve is not your typical luxury fashion line. The brand is not completely free of some of the tacky styles that forever plague 21. A fake leopard fur coat is one of the staple items they are releasing as part of the new label, as well as fingerless gloves. These sound more like dress up clothes to me rather than high fashion items.

While prices of the Twelve by Twelve line will be 35% higher than those of Forever 21, everything will still be $100 and under. Does this mean Twelve by Twelve clothing will be 35% higher quality than their cheap predecessor? Judging by their former line, I think not. While clothes from Forever 21 will always be ideal trendy and/or disposable pieces, they will never be known for quality or perseverance. I’m sure these more mature styles will suit the company well, but probably won’t be any more sturdy or reliable.

The official website for Twelve by Twelve (twelvebytwelve.com) will launch later this month, so you’ll be able to come to your own conclusions regarding this new collection. If you like what you see, a number of in-store boutiques will open in the location of 10-15 existing Forever 21′s around the country.
