Designer Handbags

Sometimes handbag designers seem to walk the ultra-thin line between beautiful perfection and extraordinary ugliness. Often this line is crossed just by the color options that a shopper can choose between. The Kate Spade Yoko Canvas Tote supports this statement in its entirety.

While the pictured natural tote looks stunning, featuring pretty whimsical line drawings by writer and illustrator Maira Kalman on the front and back, its close sibling in black with teal handles just ain’t cuttin it. Hideous! Fortunately, the pink handles harmonize very well with the beige’ish canvas of the natural color. The tote’s 14″ wide, 13″ high and 5″ deep; its straps are 22 inches in length. The stylish tote is on sale now at Smart Bargains for a mere $130 ($245 retail). Go get it while it’s hot.

For some reason babies bloom like the flowers in spring time, and again here come the newborns. If you are like all the other mommies, you want your baby at your side all the time (I know my mom did). Thanks to the wonderful designers at Gucci, your baby can not only be right on your back or tummy but also sitting there in style.

Gucci’s Summer/Spring line is carrying the ultimate Gucci baby carrier with adjustable shoulder straps. The carrier is recommended for baby 3 to 9 months or up to 20 lbs. If you were anything like me and my siblings, that does not equate to 3-9 months, more like 3-9 weeks (what can I say, we were well-fed happy children, all over 10 lbs!!) The dimensions are 16 x 7.1 x 18.5 inches. You can either chose the beige/ebony GG fabric with dark brown leather trim or the black GG fabric with black leather trim. The carrier is gonna cost ya around $730, but for the price and possession of your life, you shouldn’t buy less than the best!

The good folks over at Gizmodo may no agree with me, but I find the cherry blossomed ‘Sakura’ PSP case very appealing. I really dig the pink! Ok, maybe it’s just the hentai-comic-lovin’, Hello Kitty-adoring asian girl in me that giggles over this poach like a slot-eyed toon from the land of the rising sun, afterall. Gasp. Either way, the product page can be found here. If my Japanese was any better, I’d tell you something about it. But it’s not. In the meantime, I will just praise baby buddah and hope that this gadget will hit the US market sometime soon.
