Cintiq 24HD
In last weeks Most Wanted my gadget of choice was the Miscrosoft Surface, one of the reasons I gave for this decision was it's ability to become a graphics tablet. This week I've found Wacoms response to Microsofts incursion. For those who don't know Wacom have been making graphics tablets for years are are something of an industry leader, now that portable tablets are commonplace they've presumably started to feel the squeeze and so have decided to release the Cintiq 24HD touch, a large graphics screen with all the accuracy of their graphics tablet but now with both integrated HD screen and multi touch features. If you want one of these beauties you may want to think twice as they will cost in the region of £2k but for some artists this bit of tech will be worth it.

Black Cabs Cushion
This 40cm square cushion has a gorgeous, quirky charm about it. I'm loving the scrappy illustration style and simple design, and it would brighten up almost any sofa! It comes with the cushion pad, so it's a bit of a bargain at £20!

Instant Digital Camera
Polaroid will be dropping this 10MP Z2300 Instant Digital Camera this coming August. This interesting little compact camera comes with an integrated printer so you can print your photos on Zink ink-less paper. There are actually a lot of great social media features on the camera and carries a retail cost of $160. Slated to ship August 15, 2012.

Clarks Original Nubuck Desert Boots
There is no better starting point for a new footwear collection than the Clarks Desert Boot. The suede is good quality, they’re light enough to keep cool in the summer and incredibly comfy, and they will suit any occasion. For the money you won’t get a better quality or more versatile pair of shoes. Whilst most people might defer automatically to the Beeswax ones, I’m a big fan of the Nubuck pair and think they go brilliantly with an outfit comprising of blues and brown leather details.

VALENTINO Studded Toe Cap Suede Pumps
I am loving studded shoes that I keep seeing people rocking at the moment! Whether you can find a pair of heels, boots or flats from your favourite high street shop or, like me you are happy to just drool over the luxurious heels from the likes of Valentino and Jimmy Choo then look no further. My Most Wanted Weekly are the glorious Valentino studded toe cap suede pumps, which are available at Net-a-porter now.

Gamedock for iPhone
I love playing old school retro games but the thought of getting out and setting up consoles puts me off but this little dock will allow me to turn my iOS device into a retro gaming machine. Add in the two controllers and i can play multiplayer games with out accidently stroking the competitions finger.

About Alex Bucktin
I'm a graphic designer for a London ad agency but being creative isn't just a 9-5 thing for me. Its part of everyday life. I have an unhealthy obsession with typography, I ski like I have a death wish and my ideal afternoon would be spent walking the dogs and baking french macaroons. I collect china tea cups and shoes, and have no idea what I want to be when I finally grow up.
