At Real Simple's Simply Stated, we ask what makeup item do you always, always apply before leaving the house?

One definite hurdle to being uber-connected: staying that way on the go. The Tonic Universal USB AC Wall Charger ($30) is only about the size of a box of tic tacs, and can charge BlackBerrys and any other device that uses USB power. When you’re all charged up, hook a Jawbone ($130) on your ear to talk hands-free. And if you’re working from your laptop off-site, the Q-Link Nimbus ($170), which plugs into your computer, claims to increase energy, stamina and concentration by reducing electromagnetic fields.

Of course, staying stylish and sane amidst all the gadgets is always on our mind. Coby Electronics’s Digital Photo Frame ($51) lets you gaze at whomever or whatever you want without constantly switching your pictures by hand. If you’re a card-carrying corporate American, show some style by using cute BooJee beads ($10-$20) to hold your ID card. And keep all your gadgets clean and sparkly with Weiman E-tronic Wipes ($6), which are quick-drying, streak-free and safe to use on electronics.

If you're a victim of the frizz, Soap & Glory Hair Supply will eliminate the need for a straightening iron to keep your hair in check. 

Apply Citre Shine Split End Mender to your ends and you can save money on a costly trip to the salon.

If you crave volume, you'll want to pick up a can of Garnier Fructis Style XXL Volume Thickening Mousse.

What: Tanita BC-533 InnerScan Body Composition Monitor, $115

Why: It’s hard to believe we are in the year 2008 – and it’s about time the technology of the scale caught up to modern times. Introducing the Tania InnerScan Body Composition Monitor – a revolutionary scale that will analyze every ounce of your man and then some. In addition to weight, it will calculate body fat percentage, body water percentage, daily caloric intake, muscle mass, bone mass, and give anyone who steps on it an overall physique rating.  Unbelievable, right? Now you can play along at home with ‘America’s Biggest Loser’ and help keep accurate tabs on your man’s health and overall physical activity – although of course he’ll have to exercise and eat right first.

Bonus: This is a perfect gift for the household and even looks like it's from the future. 

Get Yours: TheCompetitiveEdge.com

This week, we’re giving away five copies of Get Positively Beautiful: The Ultimate Guide to Looking and Feeling Gorgeous, the new book by celebrity makeup artist and What Not To Wear regular Carmindy. To make sure you know how helpful this book really is, she went ahead and wrote you all five very solid beauty tips.

After you read these, tell us the most indispensable beauty advice you ever got below, and we’ll enter you for a chance to win the book.

Here are Carmindy’s tips for SheFinds readers:

1. When it comes to playing up the eyes, opposites attract. Choose eyeliner shades that are opposite to your eye color to really make your eyes stand out. If you have blue eyes, go for chocolate brown; for brown eyes, choose sapphire blue; green eyes look amazing with plum liner; and hazel eyes come alive with forest green.

2. When using a bronzer don't apply it all over your face, instead strategically place it on the temples and along the hairline, sweeping under the cheekbone. This will give you a sun-kissed natural looking contour. Try Sally Hansen Natural Beauty inspired by Carmindy Sun Glow Powder Bronzer.

3. Never use makeup to change or correct your wrongly perceived flaws. These differences make you unique so find your best feature and use makeup to enhance your natural beauty. If lips are your feature focus try a strong red lip. If eyes are your best feature go for a smoky eye and if skin is your best feature play it up with a highlight glow. If your cheeks are incredible, play with a bright cream blush.

4. To enhance your lip shape dab a little highlighter on the cupid's bow of the upper lip and a dab on the bottom of the lower lip for a fabulous pout.

5. When applying false lashes snip a pair in half and use only the smaller section at the outer corners of your eyes for a natural flirty fringe.

Seriously, buy them now. These bags are awesome.

A few weeks ago, I braved the crowds at Target’s Bullseye Bodega in midtown Manhattan to check out the goods. There was such a craze at the Anya Hindmarch display that I couldn’t even get a good look at every design before the shelves were empty.

The bags I examined – this rectangular satchel and a cream clutch – were solid. The gold-black-maroon color combo on the satchel ($45) is unusual in a rich-looking sort of way. The cream clutch ($20), like those neutral shoes we raved about all fall, will match just about anything beautifully.

Our insanely lucky/talented Managing Editor Bryn found a lone AH shoulder bag ($50) at a New Jersey Target a week and a half ago, and it’s already a favorite for work. She says it's her "poor man's Fendi spy." 

We're predicting a slight craze over these bags, so orders yours today at target.com. 

For everyone: Jillian Dempsey for AVON Professional Kohl Eye Liner ($4) glides on and delivers a smooth line that lasts. The built-in smudger helps blend for a smokey look, without lifting too much color. A staple in your beauty arsenal.

For liquid lovers: Lots of inexpensive liquid eyeliners were runny, dribbling into my eye (ouch!) before the line set. Mattese N.Y.C. Eye Drama Liquid Eyeliner ($7) is neither watery nor clumpy, and has an easy-to-wield wand for an even, dramatic line.

For evening: Victoria's Secret Limited Edition Metallic Eyeliner ($10) in bronze or hot chrome, adds a metallic sheen that's perfect for evening, while still suitable for daytime use. They're soft and creamy, too, so you don't have to gouge your lid with a rock-hard pencil to get a thick line.

We recently showcased our top five favorite sweater dresses and since then have been asked by many readers just how exactly to wear one. Other than with a solid pair of Spanx (or those ingenious Tight-End tights - or both), there are some simple ways to complement this cozy frock that will bring you easily from the office to after 5 cocktails.  

Since a sweater dress is classic, you can play around with shoes and accessories - but don't go overboard if you plan to wear to the office. A pair of two-tone Mary Janes and one strong colorful cuff will up the ante on a neutral colored dress. You can add a delicate silver necklace for some sparkle at the neckline. Before heading out for drinks, throw on a winter white mid-length jacket to brighten the look, and toss your evening essentials into a daring compact clutch.
