Sponsored: HP ENVY 4 Notebook Review & Giveaway!
The HP ENVY 4 Ultrabook | Click photo to enlarge.
With the fall semester rapidly approaching, it’s time to start thinking about back to school shopping. And whether you’re attending college for the first time or returning for another year, there’s no back-to-school purchase more important than a good computer.
To celebrate back-to-school season, our fabulous friends at HP let us test drive one of their hottest notebooks, the HP ENVY 4, and we’re officially smitten.
Read on to learn all about this stylish back-to-school essential AND enter to win one of your very own!
All About the HP ENVY 4 Ultrabook
Here at CF, we’re pretty discerning notebook shoppers: We not only want a computer that’s fast, powerful, and lightweight, but we want it to be stylish, too. (If we’re staring at it for hours a day, it better look good!) Suffice to say that most laptops we’ve tested have not fit the bill.
But as soon as we saw the HP ENVY 4, we knew this was an exception. Not only does this computer exceed our tech requirements, but it more than fulfills the style quotient. Let’s break it down:
Tech Specs:
Let’s face it: the perfect computer for college needs to perform. Whether you’re editing a presentation, typing your thesis, or just browsing Facebook, your laptop needs to handle it all with ease.
Unlike other ultra-thin laptops we’ve tested, the ENVY 4 is incredibly responsive. Boasting an Intel® Core™ i5-3317U 1.7 GHz processor and 4 GB of RAM (upgradable to 16 GB), it can handle anything. Plus, with a 500 GB hard drive, there’s more than enough space for your notes, music, photos, and more.
Design:
As mentioned earlier, we expect our gadgets to be as stylish as they are functional. And the ENVY 4 is total eye-candy: With a gorgeous, shiny brushed metal design, backlit keyboard, and ultra thin (.78 in) profile, it’s incredibly chic. While we prefer the sparkle of the silver model (above), the ENVY 4 also comes in Louboutin-esque black and red, if that’s more your style.
Special Features:
Finally, the ENVY 4 is packed with features that make it perfect for college students. Here’s a quick sampling:
- Equipped with Beats Audio™, dual speakers, and a subwoofer – music sounds amazing on the ENVY 4.
- Weighing just 3.86 lbs, and with over 7 hours of battery life, it’s ideal for toting around campus.
- Equipped with HP ProtectSmart, which senses motion and secures your data, so you won’t lose everything if you accidentally drop it.
- HP CoolSense technology automatically adjusts your notebook’s temperature based on usage and conditions – no more overheating or burnt legs while wearing shorts! (The latter has happened to us.)
Enter to Win an HP ENVY 4!
Now that you know the HP ENVY 4, here’s your chance to snag one: One lucky CF reader will win an HP ENVY 4 in Black/Silver, pictured above.
Entering is easy – just leave a comment on this post and tell us… What’s on your back-to-school shopping list? Be specific! Are you seeking out the perfect pair of leopard flats? New dresses, perhaps? Furniture for your dorm room? The perfect black leather tote? Anything goes, so have fun and tell us what you’re coveting for back-to-campus!
Make sure to include your real email address in the “email” section of the form so we can contact you if you win.
Giveaway Rules & Eligiblity
This giveaway is open to CF readers in the U.S. only. Only one entry per person/computer, please. Those who try to enter more than once will have all their entries deleted.
You have until Monday, August 20th at 10:00 AM Eastern to enter, at which time we’ll randomly choose a winner from all eligible entries and announce their name on our Facebook page and Twitter.

I’d still like to pickup one or two trendy items that catch my eye on CF :) I really loved the peacock green statement necklace I saw in a previous CF post.
Lastly I’m going to be changing up my hair routine. My hair is super dry and damaged and I’m going to try out cowashing, so some shampoo and conditioner from the DevaCare line is on top of my list.

Since in the autumn I will begin my first year of college, my list is quite long… (and i am really exciting about the hole new experience!!)
One of the first things I am definitely going to buy is a laptop and that is because i never had one and because I will study abroad. I hope it will help me with organizing all the school materials, but also with ‘keeping in tough’ with my family, but also with YOU and other great websites that i love to read on-line!! <3
Next things on my shopping list are some stuff for my new room which will be far away from my home… stuff such as bedding, a mini lamp (because i like to read at night which i know that is not very good), a photo frame etc.
And, of course, last but not least, cloths and I think this list is going to be very long because i am still adding to it: I need a new denim jacket, a new pair of jeans( just some skinny jeans- you never can have enough), a pair of gym shoes, a new bag ( i think i would like a brown one, big enough for my books and notebooks..), a coat (maybe a rain coat ), definitely a new dress- an everyday dress in a neutral color, good for autumn, yoga pants and not to forget about a black pair of high-heels… and the list will go on and I really hope that you will continue to inspire me to get new items for school but not only!

Going back to school this year, I’m determined to find a new me, all though I can’t buy it all at once…I’m just looking to find the perfect style to define me. Last year, as a incoming freshmen my clothes were simply basic and classy, as the months go by I find that my clothes were a bit too simple and “outdated”. I find myself spending longer than I anticipated to get dressed…I basically didn’t like what I was wearing. This year, I’m determined to dress better and make sure I feel comfortable in them and in my own body.
This year I want to focus on:
1. Blouses that I can rock out that looks cute, but also says that I’m sophisticated.
2. Since this year I’m throwing my skinny jeans away, I’m focusing on dresses and shorts that define my legs, since I’m barely 5’2…jeans are just a pain to find.
3. Shoes!! I wore my rainbow sandals through out the whole school year…since I live near the beach…I find that it was hard to find the perfect pair of shoes that is stylish and comfortable to wear on a daily basis.
4. The perfect bikini!! Since I live near the beach and I visit oh very so often, I’m so determine to find the perfect bikini that I can wear that I feel confident in. I And also, since I have a very small petite body, finding the perfect one is just hard!!
This year, I have a budget…I don’t plan to spend a lot of money on clothes. My rent is way to expensive for me to go crazy, as long as I feel comfortable in my own clothing …I think I’m good to go! No more spending 30 minutes staring at my closet.

Tights are always a big must for me during the winter because i can wear them under dresses and shorts for a cute look. But this year I’m going to try colored and patterned tights to spice up my look even more! Scarves are another must-have. I’m loving all the geometric print ones out there right now and can’t wait to stock up! And lastly, I’m looking for sparkly nailpolishes!

The perfect book bag is essential for back to school because it is the one item that you wear every day to class!
Durability is key for college students like myself, who can openly admit to the occasional coffee spill and rough tendencies. My solution: leather.
I have been drooling over the Fossil Vintage Revival collection, specifically the solid pecan-colored tote. Luckily, the boxy silhouette will go well with every outfit and the bag will only look increasingly “vintage” with use. My favorite part about this bag is that it is a reasonable price and will last me well into my career-seeking years ahead!

Sweet giveaway! Hm, back to school..(though deep down, I keep trying to dodge such thoughts because I don’t want summer to leave)
1) A fabulous blazer. One that isn’t too formal, perhaps a cropped one.
2) A great ‘all-around’ boot. Probably a flat boot, one that I can run around campus in without crying. Not too tall either, casual but classic? Yeah.
3) A good bag…I’m kind of torn between a soft leather satchel or a nice ‘knapsack.’ Most likely a satchel though, since I can utilize for school and my laptop.
4) Scarves. Infinity or really long ones, since they give me more options. Primarily though, I want scarves with unique designs.
5) An MP3-Car jack…so I can play my music as I’m driving to school. :p

Back-to-School 2012
1) A great, old-school,sturdy carry-all backpack. My beloved, uber-cute houndstooth sack’s bottom fell out midway through finals week last year. Not that I was surprised– that bag had been on my back since seventh grade!
2) Headbands! I’d like this accessory in every style from prim and pretty to funky neon. Something about having my hair held back in a headband makes me feel more focused and ready to study.
3) Pretty picture frames to prevent homesickness. This year will be my first in a dorm, and to make matters worse, I’ll be cross-country from all my friends! I’m on the prowl for cute frames to hold pictures of my buddies, snaps from around my hometown, and my dearly-missed puppy.
4) A versatile and neutral cross body purse to don at night. I need something that will hold the basics–phone, ID,debit card, and lipstick– but won’t weigh me down. I want something that will go with anything, but still show off my fashion sense and personality. Grommet embellishments or glittery accents would do the trick!
5) Unconventional, yet comfortable, Oxford flats for loafing around campus and the city. I like to indulge in a few super-trendy items every season, and the offbeat Ox fad is definitely one of my faves! I’m digging the kicks with cut-out details, colorful soles, and pretty eyelet materials.

I am in search of the perfect bag to carry my books and other school essentials in. One that isn’t too heavy on its own that goes with every outfit that’s still roomy enough to fit my work uniform on some days and not become cumbersome while I explore the city before or after classes.
I am also looking for the perfect pair of booties. I’ve been dying to get a pair since 2010 and I never found one that was perfect. Once than can dress an outfit up or down and go from class to a night out, and even to church.

My look is inspired by taking the stereotypical looks of subcultures, eras and different countries and combining them all together into a diverse look. Nothing makes me happier than shopping in thrift stores and traveling to other countries and people watching. I wish to represent the cultures of the world with my sensible, yet eccentric sense of style. I am a staunch feminist so I have never worn a dress in my life. What else do you expect from a international affairs major? ^^

Going back to school in the fall has always been my favorite reason to go shopping. This year I’m entering my last year of my undergrad career, and I’m just as excited to buy school supplies now as when I was a little girl. My back-to-school shopping list is filled with basic staple pieces that I know I will be using/wearing throughout the year.
1. A new planner insert to replace the one in my leather cover. I’m really picky about my planner, and I prefer daily planners over weekly planners because I like to see my days broken down hourly since my schedule is always so jam packed during the school year. The one I’ve been using for the past 2 years is perfect because it has a section for daily notes. Unfortunately it is only available for special order online, but it’s definitely worth it for me!
2. Skinny jeans, one in a dark wash and one in a light wash.
3. Black leggings; they go with everything and they’re perfect for cold weather paired with a cozy sweater and cute boots.
4. Moccasins! Something about moccasins makes them so laid back and comfortable… especially during those long days.
5. Simple tanks and tees that can be used for layering under and over things.
6. My perfect lip colors in shades of pinks, corals, reds, and berries.
7. SCHOOL SUPPLIES! I love getting new paper, notebooks, highlighters, and especially pens! I am a total pen junkie.
Making this list has definitely gotten me more excited for the school year to start! Yaaaayyy! [:
Sunyoung

Jacqueline G.
For this upcoming school year, my shopping list is a lot shorter than years before, I think.
I am mostly going for: a classic black blazer, some classic vans in white and another air in burgundy, a chambray/denim shirt, classic flats in nude and black, a sturdy backpack, burgundy jeans, knee high boots, a plastic storage rolling container, and jeans. Starting at a new college this fall, my attire or what I am going for are more classic, put together, yet stylish looks.
Now, other items I will be getting, pray to God, this laptop, and a Prius (:
Thank you for the opportunity!
