CYNTHIA VITALE- A blog about my favorite things

FASHION TAPE

I’ve been using this stuff for years. It works really well to hide bra straps and keep a cardigan just where you want it. The little pink tin is really cute! I used to buy it in Bed, Bath, and Beyond, but they don’t have it anymore. You can get it at Amazon.com ($8.87, add to a bigger order for free shipping!)

Amazon Kindle

I’ve had a Kindle for a few months and I love it. It is very light weight, and easy to carry around. The screen looks like the pages in a book, and there is no glare. It is easier to read lying down and while getting a manicure. People say “I like the feel of a book”- get over it and welcome to 2011. It is environmentally friendly, no trees died to make it!

Dunkin Donuts Coffee

My first job at age 16 was in a Dunkin Donuts. I have loved their coffee ever since. Sorry Starbucks, DD is cheaper and better! Since they built one 2 blocks from my house, my life is complete!

Tide-to-Go pen

The tide-to-go pen really works! It takes out almost any stain, although it can’t really be used on a big stain. I carry one with me always!

Well placed, classy tattoos

Okay, you may think that is an oxymoron, but I respectfully disagree. I have two very pretty tattoos, the picture is the one on my left wrist. I also have one on my right ankle with roses and the name of my three children. I do think that people should not get tattoos when they are young (teens and twenties) because they very well may regret their choice later. My advice- think about your tattoo for a long time before you get it and don’t worry about what anyone else thinks, it is your body and your choice!

Standard poodles

I always feel like I have to make a disclaimer about my dogs. My daughter has bad allergies, so I wanted to get a big dog, but one that is hypoallergenic, that doesn’t leave a lot of options. So I got Coal 4 years ago, and Diamond last year. They are so smart and sweet and I have grown to love the way they look. The fact that they don’t shed is awesome! Now, I can’t imagine ever having any other kind of dog! Check out their cool collars (collarmania.com).

The Honda Ridgeline

My dad got a Honda Ridgeline in 2007. I always knew that if I bought a truck, it would be a Ridgeline. I bought mine in December, 2010. I LOVE MY TRUCK! It isn’t too big, it has a variable speed engine (gets 20 mpg hw), the 2nd row folds up, so the dogs hang on the floor, and I can haul any thing I need to.

Skins

I cover all my electronics (laptop, Kindle, iPhone) with decorative skins from http://www.skinit.com. They have thousands of choices and you can even customize your own! Its a cool way to personalize your stuff and make it different from the rest of the world.

Pandora bracelets

My sisters and I all have one. I love Pandora bracelets because different people can buy you charms that are special to them or you. Everyone’s bracelet is unique to them. You can also get charms from other less-expensive companies like Brighton and Kay. The cool, modern version of the charm bracelet.
