Would You Wear This? The Lumo Lift

High-tech pedometers are all the rage. These devices no longer just track your steps, but your milage, flights of stairs, calories burned, and overall activity levels. I, myself, am a Fitbit girl, not because I'm interested in any of this information, but because I receive points for my employer's wellness program for using one. The technology is pretty cool, but I had to start hiding my steps totals from a few overzealous friends.

Recently an ad popped up on my Facebook feed for a new device called the Lumo Lift. It's a small square that you can attach to your lapel (via magnet) that does all the things a Fitbit does, but it will also remind you when your posture is less than optimal, with a gentle vibration (I'm thinking this is a nice way to say severe electric shock). They tout it as a "beautiful device that you wear on your chest to track your daily activity and help to improve your posture."

The Lift in Silver
I must say, I'm intrigued. I have terrible posture and almost never remember to sit up straight. You can pre-order the Lift for $69 on their website. For an additional $10, you can purchase additional Lift clasps in various colors. I'm sure you need one to match every outfit!
