Introducing: Microsoft Laptop Bags
New news for all you high tech purse enthusiasts – Microsoft, yeah that’s right Microsoft is releasing a new line of laptop bags (due out February 15th). The bags are even “Made in Redmond” too!

For the project Microsoft teamed up with luggage manufacturer Samsill to produce these laptop bags. These boring but functional in design bags contain all the amenities you’d expect from a modern notebook tote: protective padded sleeve holds laptop up to 15.4″, media storage and accessory panel, zipper closure on main compartment for security and easy access exterior zipper pockets.

The line is launching with three simple design styles: the Manhattan ($69.99), the Madison ($59.99) and the Monticello ($49.99).

Fendi | Crocodile Tote
eBay Alert! The Fendi Crocodile has been spotted. Location: Sitting alone, none other like it on eBay all glammed up in a crocodile / alligator black shiny leatherwear – I adore. The Fendi Crocodile tote usually carries the price tag of $9,000 but for a limited time this stunner is available for a buy-it-now price of $4,000. Or you can wait it out for the next couple days and slowly watch the bidding increase – currently the bids are at $999.

Celebrity | Ashley Olsen | Fendi Handbag
Noooonononoooooo! Its official, a couple days ago Ashley converted to the darker side. I guess I am just so use to the two different versions of the Olsen twins – each on opposite sides of the spectrum. But no more when it comes to their hair color.

Change every now and then is good. However I’m not fan. It’s too Mary-Kate – but that may because she looks like she jumped out of the shower and her hair looks messy.

Shop Fendi on eBay!

The newer leather version is available here on Saks Fifth Avenue

Dooney and Bourke | Croco Baby Briefcase
Dooney and Bourke is not exaggerating here, this Croco Baby Briefcase is truly miniature in size – dimensions 7″ length x 2.75″ width x 5″ height. I don’t know if you can really classify this as a briefcase as far as the measurements go. I mean really, you can’t even fit a notebook or a file in there.

This briefcase comes dressed up in croco fabric in your choice of Amber, Black, Brown T-Moro, Crimson, Taupe, or honey. Features of this Croco Baby Briefcase include the two inside pockets, inside zip pocket, adjustable (detachable) strap, and the signature Dooney and Bourke lock and key with fob. Now for the price, oh yes the price, this little guy can be found via Dooney.com for the price of $245. Imo save your money, get a bag (or briefcase) that is more functional.

In other Dooney and Bourke news, they are currently giving away a new Dooney and Bourke Handbag! The exact bag I do not know, they don’t have that information available. However I do no that the last drawing was for the Nile Domed Satchel. All you need to do to get your name tossed in the Dooney drawing pool is complete the form on this page – click here

Prada | Nylon and Leather
I’m in a simple mood to tell you about a straightforward bag. This is a classic Prada handbag in black nylon and leather. Combining the simple traditional style and function for everyday wear and tear together make this bag a signature mark of Prada’s bags. What I really like about this shoulder accessory is I can use it as a school bag since it requires little to no care, and is very durable. No need to be concerned about dropping it on the ground thanks to the four protective studs on the bottom. Also no need to worry if the seems will tear from heavy book, thanks to the quality Prada nylon fabric. Another addition feature I must make a note of is the structured shape of this bag. It’s like a mini briefcase with hard sides that holds papers, books, or other materials for business or school.

I remember I almost bought a Prada Tote, similar to this one less than a year ago on Overstock. I also remember it being around only $250. I should have bought it then. Overstock usually gets their hands on some nifty Prada left overs from the previous season. So if you don’t want to pay bucket loads of money at full price, you should browse their site sometime, they have some good deals. You can get Prada Handbags for 55% off! I spotted this bag and other awesome Italian Leather Goods at Forzieri.com

This nylon bag is very popular in the counterfeit replica market. Prada has this simple durable line that counterfeiter take advantage of. They produce similar yet not as quality nylon bags with an upside down imitation prada label tag. To be honest, at times it’s hard to tell the difference between a fake and authentic nylon Prada bag!

If you like these bags don’t hesitate to get one, there are only a few of these left. This hot Prada bag in classic black is 10.83″ width x 9.06″ height x 4.33″ depth and goes for a steep $998. at the FORZIERI Outlet
