Women are multi-task masters. In a hyper connected world, she’s gotta stay calm, cool and most of all connected. It’s one of the world’s wonders how she does it all with such style. Checking email, searching on Google for tonight’s dinner, messaging to coordinate the kids’ play date, juggling her iPhone 5 and her latte in each hand, your gal depends on her gadgets.

Give her the gift of the world at her fingertips.Caution: you’ll likely want some of these on your list as well.

Under $250
1. Iphone Photo Printer $159.95
It’s a bold statement, but I think its pretty safe to say that the smartphone has replaced the point and shoot camera for casual users. This printer makes it easy for her to plug, print and keep those 2012 memories as keepsakes.

2. Heartbeats earphones $149.95
If they’re good enough for Lady Gaga, they’re good enough for me! Made famous by their collaboration with Dre, Beats by Dre headphones created these Heatbeats earphones with the one and only Lady Gaga. They are the perfect combination of sound and style.

3. Livescribe Sky Smartpen with Evernote $170
There’s still something to be said about the feeling of putting pen on paper. This smartpen allows the user record written notes and audio straight to Evernote. A simple sync and everything is in the cloud. This is perfect for her on-the-go lists as well as conceptualizing thoughts with her hand.

Under $100
4. XDModo Window solar charger $66.00
A beautiful way to charge your phone, this solar powered charger is friendly to Mother Earth as it is fun, aesthetic and practical. Just make sure you live in the part of the world with long, sunny days.

5. Fitbit $99.95
They say that its the little things that go a long way and the Fitbit is no exception to this rule. The Fitbit makes it fun and achievable to make fitness a part of everyday life. You can really gamify your whole day by making the digital fitness flower grow or seeing how many virtual flights of stairs you’ve taken.

6. Insound Cavern Gray Poncho $52.00
This hoodie poncho has a secret: it has built-in headphones. The earbuds are on the drawstrings and connect to your iPod, iPhone or any other electronic device player through a cable in the kangaroo pocket. She can sport this on her way to yoga and zen out with some tunes.

Under $50
7. La Chance Passe Smartphone Wallet $32.00
This is the perfect stocking stuffer. fit phones like the iPhone 5/4/4S/3GS/3, Galaxy S2/S3, even the Galaxy Note and almost all smartphones out today.

8. Baggu Laptop 13” Laptop Case $36.00
This New York City bag designer is as conscious and stylish as they come. From recycled cotton canvas, she has created this protective laptop sleeve with velcro flap closed. It’s lined with cozy recyled PET fleece and is made for 13” Macbook Air or Macbook Pro as well as the 15” Macbook Pro.

    Thank you for posting all of these great ideas, Melissa. I am looking for a few gifts to round out what I already got for my daughter. She already has just about every gadget there is. I was at a loss until I got an idea from one of my coworkers at DISH. He knows she is a big TV and movie fan, so he recommended the DISH Sling Adapter. Once I connect that to my DISH Hopper DVR, she will be able to stream any live program or any recorded program from our DVR to her phone. Now I am looking for a few stocking stuffers; that solar charger looks pretty cool, and I think she would like a FitBit too.
