In 2016 the first day of the UK school summer holidays coincided with a border security crackdown in France. Thousands of drivers, many with families, spent up to 14 hours in traffic waiting to cross the English Channel. Such nightmares are unusual, as are the …

I love to listen to music and at my house, there’s always background music on in just about every room. Whether we’re cooking, eating dinner or just chilling on the patio, we have the tunes turned on. The only place I don’t have an iPod or a speaker hooked up is in the bathroom, but that’s all changed now since I’ve recently been trying out the SpeakStick Bluetooth Shower Speaker.
The SpeakStick Bluetooth Shower Speaker is an amazing little speaker that is both waterproof and wireless. It attaches easily to a shower wall and not only allows you instant access to music on any Bluetooth device (iPhone, Galaxy and all other Android devices), but can also give you the freedom to talk hands free if you so desire. Multitasking to the max!
I’ve been using it in our master bathroom shower and the sound quality is incredibly good for such a small speaker. I’ve been listening to streaming music on Pandora and this morning, I created a special morning playlist on my iPod to wake me up and get me going. A few songs can turn a grumpy morning into a sunshine day in a few minutes! It’s a snap to set up and there’s even a short how-to video online to help guide you through the process. Once you use it one time, you’ll have a pretty good feel for how it works. The buttons are fairly straightforward and if you need a little help, there’s plenty of it on the company’s website. You can play, pause, skip to the next song and turn it off and on all from the speaker. It’s so convenient and easy.
While I’ve been testing it out in the bathroom setting, you can use this speaker just about anywhere. Move it from room to room, take it with you on trips or put in in your car (the speaker can detect any Bluetooth device within 50 feet).
The speaker is made with high-end, quality, durable materials and the best thing about it is that it is very affordable. I love a good bargain and this definitely falls into that category for sure.
Some of the great features of this product are:
• Strong speaker and mic
• Waterproof (this does not mean you can submerge it)
• Convenient and strong suction cup to stick the speaker anywhere (shower, car, kitchen, desk)
• Call pick up and hang up function when you bathe— no missed calls
• Aux-in port for connecting with other music device
• Mini USB power charging port
The SpeakStick Bluetooth Shower Speaker has a playback time of about 6 hours, with a standby time of 240 hours. Charging the device is super simple and takes a few hours (about four) and you’ll be right back to enjoying your favorite tunes. The SpeakStick is available in five different colors including black, white, pink, green and blue.
You can purchase the SpeakStick Rechargeable Bluetooth Shower Speaker with Mini USB Connection – Pink

Headphones can be bulky, heavy, difficult to use, uncomfortable and have terrible sound quality. Well…that was my past experience with all of the headphone systems that I’ve used in the past. Does that sound familiar to any of you? If so, read on…because my entire opinion on audio headphones and headsets has totally changed!
Let me introduce you to the Bluetooth industry leader, Jabra. We’ve featured Jabra several times here on the Two Classy Chics blog and I’m super excited to be featuring them again and as part of the annual Holiday Gift Guide.
The new Jabra Eclipse is an incredibly light-weight wireless in-ear headset that delivers superior audio performance and comfort. Out of all of the headphones & headsets that I’ve owned over the years…this one is the BEST one that I’ve ever had!
Key features of the Jabra Eclipse in-ear headset include:
* New stylish headset with unrivalled sound quality
* Jabra’s lightest Bluetooth® headset ever weighing just 5.5 grams
* Premium music-grade speaker
* Advanced noise cancelling technology
* Elegant and sleek design offering ultimate comfort
* 10 hrs of talk time
* Portable charging and storage case included
* Works with iPod, iPhone and iPad
The Jabra Eclipse uses a completely button-free interface. Simply double-tap the headset to answer or end calls or to speak in one of many sophisticated languages. The carry case that holds the Jabra Eclipse is more than a carrying case! This case is also a portable charger that gives your Eclipse an additional 7 hours of talk time for a total of 10 hours!
What is really cool is that it features a music-grade speaker and HD voice delivers more incoming audio than the leading voice headsets out in the marketplace. I love the noise cancelling technology because I work from home & there are always people roaming around making noise. This technology ensures that people only hear the sound of my voice and not the noise in the background! That’s totally cool.
I’ve been using the Jabra Eclipse while I’m working in my home office for the past few weeks. I like to listen to music via my iPod while working and I like to be hands-free when taking business calls. By using the Jabra Eclipse Wireless Headset…I can listen to music while I work and then when an incoming call comes in…simply double-tap the headset to pick up the business call.
This wireless headset is super light-weight and I always forget that I’m even wearing it because it’s ultra-comfortable too! You can totally customize your call services & features by using the Jabra Assist App right along with it (which I recommend that you do). You can obtain the App from Google Play and the App Store.
I think the Jabra Eclipse makes a wonderful holiday gift for men, women and even older teens! It’s a great headset to listen to your favorite music (wireless) and to take incoming calls. It’s seriously the BEST wireless headset/headphones that I’ve ever used!
The Jabra Eclipse is available online and in Best Buy and T-Mobile stores starting in October with a suggested retail price of $129.99. You will be able to buy it in either white or black. Extra charging cases are also available for purchase.
