In the hood

Can't think of a fashionable way to protect your iPod from being inflicted with new scratch marks every time it comes in contact with your keys or jewellery? New York-based designer Charlotte Ronson is here to help. The 26-year-old, whose C. Ronson line includes clothing, shoes and underwear and is sold in hip stores such as Barneys in New York and Fred Segal in Los Angeles, has designed an 'iPod hoodie' cover to keep your favourite travel companion warm, snug and, best of all, scratch-free. The holders come in pink, blue, and green and are priced at US$24. Available from www.fredflare.com.
