7. How To Cook Everything
Mark Bittman, aka The Minimalist of the NY Times, is my food god. I adore his laconic, fuss-free approach to recipes and cooking. This best-selling app features 2,000 of his recipes from his much loved cookbook of the same name. $5.99 (and worth it).

8. Couch to 5k
Couch to 5k is the revolutionary fitness program that gets you from the couch to running 5kms easily in 9 weeks. This app motivates and tracks your progress. Friends rave about this program. $3.99

9. Old Booth
There's the free Lite version, but you definitely need to upgrade to Premium for heaps of extra styles. Just upload your photo and warp yourself back in time - it is absolutely hilarious! Lite, free, Premium, $2.49.

10. Gucci
The Gucci app is as stylish as they come, with product launches, playlists by uber-producer Mark Ronson, and an oh-so-chic little black book for 33 international cities on where to eat, shop and dance the night away (preferably in your Gucci heels).
