Get a virtual closet with ClosetSpace

 

Are you a fashion fiend and wish you had Cher Horowitz’s digitized closet in now cult classic Clueless? Fashion analytics company Stylistics has created ClosetSpace, a free app that’ll show you daily outfit suggestions from a virtual catalog of all the items in your closet. You’ll also get style inspiration from 135 of the top fashion bloggers. If you want a personal stylist, you will need to shell out an additional US$25. It is kind of turning the act of dressing up into a game, making you your own real-life Barbie.

Google Now adds third-party app support for Android

The Google Now cards are quiet handy for pulling up contextual notifications. But it has always been limited to Google services—until today that is. Now, they’ve added support for 40 third-party apps on Android, including Ford, Pandora, Lyft, Airbnb, Duolingo, and others. If you want to take advantage of this feature, you would have to have both the Google app and the third-party app installed. The update is said to be coming over the next few weeks so keep your eyes peeled for them. Google hasn’t said though if this’ll be done for iOS, too.
