Laptops are the New Clutches?




HP Computers have announced their partnership with the upcoming Sex and the City movie sequel, whose star Sarah Jessica Parker will sport one of the company’s ‘digital clutches.’

Designed by Vivienne Tam — her Butterfly Lovers netbook premiered on her runway in 2008 — the handbag-sized mini computer will star as the columnist’s steady companion.

The electronics brand’s move follows several other attempts made by its rivals recently to lure fashion fans into the world of gadgets.

Love it.....and would defintely carry it as a clutch! I can imagine that it sold well in 2008 due to the appealing design, but once it's featured in the Sex and the City sequel, I'm sure sales will skyrocket!

THE Diamond iPad



The world's first diamond iPad is already in production, though the iPads won't be available until April 3.

Mervis Diamond Importers, who created the Diamond Dreidel we featured back in December, is planning to release this stunning design to the masses in very limited quantities in June. The Mervis Diamond iPad features 11.43 carats of diamonds, hand-set in this beautiful oblique micro-pave style. The diamonds are graded G/H in color and VS2/SI1 in clarity. This is fine jewelry you can e-mail from.

A number of diamond iPads are sure to be coming out soon, if the rash of diamond iPods is any indication, but the first may indeed be the best in this case. The design is understated and classic -- and unbelievably sparkly. Can't you see this becoming a family heirloom? Even if the handheld devices of the future are different, this will become a vintage piece with high geek appeal.

The Mervis Diamond iPad costs $19,999.00. Orders can be placed online here or by calling 703-287-1615 after June 1.

One of my favorite things to do this time of year is peruse the men's departments. From T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Ross, Macys and more, those stores are chock full of cool stuff for men. Now, I will say, some of those things can be used by women as well, but mens is the "go to" department for unique items sure to make most men happy.
