Hunting & Gathering

Tech Candy Fan Girl, found at Garden Argosy on St. Armands Circle, answers the ever-pressing question of how to stay cool in Florida’s notoriously hot summers. Playing off of mobility and minimizing bulkiness, this portable fan works in tandem with a smartphone when plugged into its charging port, using the phone’s battery as a source of energy. Creating an effervescent buzzing as the two blades spin into a blur and brush away beads of sweat, this little fan serves as portable AC, giving off a “mobile breath of fresh air” no matter how hot the weather.  Enjoy for $9.50.
