iPad Leather Case — Breathtakingly Beautiful!

leather-ipad-case-1_sxgfn_65

Now that we have explored the beautiful sparkly iPad, let’s move onto the more sophisticated one that is actually leather.  Since the iPad was released, I can tell you for sure that so many people are looking for the latest and greatest way to store their particular iPad.
That is how this particular leather iPad case came into play.  This is one of those cases that is not just a case but actually a beautiful thing.  It’s hand-stitched and can be used as both a case and a stand – either portrait or landscape.

Now, it’s just under seven hundred dollars, so make sure that you keep that in mind whenever you are looking for this beauty!

Insomniacs Need Suffer No More — Sleep in Luxury!

lightsleeperInsomnia is more widespread than most of us might imagine, with slow sleep insomnia — i.e., it takes you just short of forever to unplug all the circuits and finally fall asleep — being probably the most common type. Well, my fellow insomniacs, forget about counting sheep or dogs or pastries or cars or what have you; LightSleeper renders it obsolete.

Sleeping pills can be addictive, sleepy time teas and the like sometimes don’t work, warm milk is rather disgusting — so what do you do? Turn to the LightSleeper, which was designed by someone who had difficulty falling asleep herself.

What does it do? The device is set up to project a light across the ceiling of your room in a circular motion — that is what supposed to make you fall asleep.

Pet + Laptop = Luxury … or Disaster?

petegoSo, P@W (which stands for Pet at Work — cute, right?) is this bag. It’s … is it a great idea? That is really a matter of opinion. So … maybe we ought to just talk about what it is for.

Basically, the bag will allow you to carry both your pet (if it is a lapdog or a cat that does not mind close confines; or maybe a ferret or something too, I guess) and your laptop — together. Your laptop and your lapdog, finally together, right?

Now, there are some inherent problems with this idea. First of all, where are you going to take the dog? The office won’t accept it, Starbucks frowns upon that kind of thing if you aren’t, you know, Paris Hilton or something. The park is an option, sure, but … how many of us really want to spend $178 to be able to carry our dog and laptop in the same bag?

Also … what if your dog pees? I’m just saying.

Are $32K Computers the Wave of the Future?

gaiser_02_12No, this is not a tastefully and expensively decorated knick knack box. Quite the contrary, it is one of the new Gaiser High End PCs — what the company presumably hopes will be the next wave of luxury computers.

The luxurious machines work just like the considerably less expensive computers most of us currently have. The difference is, of course, that our computers are not covered in some serious bling — 24 carat gold leafing, not to mention Swarovski crystals — and they do not cost a whopping $32,300. Keep in mind, you could buy a car for that price. That is worth two semesters of college, if not more!

Given the price, you sort of have to wonder why they did not just go all out and decorate these computers — of which there are many designs — with diamonds. Maybe it is because Swarovski crystals are so trendy right now.

While these computers are unquestionably high end, one does have to question the necessity of such a machine.

Louis V. in Your USB

louis-vuitton-damier-graphite-usb-keyThe question: can computer geekery and a love of luxury go hand in hand? Louis Vuitton seems to think that the answer is … oui! Oui, oui, oui!

But … one has to wonder about the Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite USB Key. Is it palatable? Is it necessary? Not only can you stick it into one of your PC or laptop’s USB drives and keep up to four gigs of information on it, but it doubles as a keyring! Gasp! Awe!

Tell me, is this the modern version of the bottle opener Fred bought Holly Golightly at Tiffany’s (quoting the film, yes, may Truman forgive me)? I hope not. You wouldn’t have seen Holly, first lady of style though she was, hanging her little goodie off of her jeans.

Then again … I’d buy it. Just to have it. And because, at $450, it’s probably one of the only LV treats I’d ever be able to afford.
