Accessories

Ok so the iPod frenzy has still not died down. I don’t blame it, I love my iPod. I think everyone loves their iPod’s. We, here at the Purse Blog, are lovers of Macs. With that being said, I know many of you chose to accessorize your iPod like it’s your child. Why not? But when you are carrying your iPod around in your pocket you begin to realize something. It doesn’t look so cool to have both back pockets filled with something. It isn’t so cool, right men? And for you ladies, making anything simpler is better. I know it is true. So this is why I love this White Crest Collection iPod Wallet.

The Crest Collection iPod Wallet features are both practical and simple which makes it easy for the user. The wallet offers complete iPod protection while still being able to access all iPod controls and a cord management system for earbud headphones. But the more posh features are the rubber band closure, the belt or strap attachment, and the suede interior with custom print. This wallet can’t be called a wallet without its slot for cards or keys or both of course, making this wallet a high tech wallet for the high tech world we live in today. The clincher is the $64 ticket price via Urban clothing. This little wallet meets all your iPod and credit card needs.

Gadgets Gone Glamorous! None other than our beloved Karl Lagerfeld himself put his innovative mastermind to work to create this Chanel TV Belt. This gem was almost overlooked during this year’s Chanel Spring/Summer 2005 Runway Presentation, yet it is the item for any socialite this summer. Yeap, Karl is always good for some ridiculous magic out of the blue. And yes, the screens did indeed show Nicole Kidman’s ad while the models ran the catwalk. However, it is questionable that this gadget will ever hit the Chanel stores. A lady at the NYC store apparently mentioned it may stay runway only, but who knows with Chanel. What more could this world need than more garnered attention and stares at peoples crotches? More pictures below…

We just got back from last night’s Dave Matthews Band concert in Cuyahoga Falls, OH, which was absolutely amazing! The outdoor venue was packed with people, and despite having gotten my new New Balance shoes ruined by a smokin’ bitch who just had to drop her glowing ash stub right on it and burn a dime-sized hole right through the top (nearly buring off my toes), we had a blast. I never considered myself a great Dave fan, but watching that gig probably will make me listen to their tunes for the next 4 months straight.

Time for a quick late night edition. I learned that lots of you ladies dig the metallic look, and this little accessory might just come in handy. The Avery Griffin Leather Holster is a very fashionable way to clip your cell, ipod, cash or plastic to your jeans or bag and keep ‘em at your finger tips. The $55 baggie comes in a variety of metallic colors and is available through Ravinstyles.com.

You know, sometimes it’s much fun to browse the web casually and see what there is to crack you up. There’s tons of things a person’s imagination can dream up, and the web is just the right corner to share it all with a wide audience. Fame and glory are just one link away. Although this particular item has nothing to with bags per se, it still counts as something you might wanna make for your significant other or as a gag gift for a male friend of yours. Plus it does fit in any bag. Let me present whimsies that dangle, the Wee Willie Wamers. Available in three sizes for proper fit: “Bonnie Boner” (or Eddie Erected or The Stallion), “Tinkle Tamer” (or Irving is Interested), “Penis Purse” (or Wee Willie). And because it’s just so much fun, you get to make ‘em yourself. Oh I see it, willie warmers in colors and with patterns, some in fine garn, custom fitting to bring the man through the colder days. Brilliant. Should you not be efficient with thread and needles, you can always ask your mother to help you out. Get your patterns via Danglie Bits.

Which of you ladies enjoy being lavished with girly gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day or just any old day? I know I do. Ask Vlad, I’m needy and love to be adorned with random gifts (hint hint). Anyhow, I know its very cliche but getting a teddy bear to me is just so cute. I happen to love Jean Paul Gaultier. His innovative style has always caught my eye. And he is now bringing the art of a teddy bear to his collection. There is a catch. Jean Paul can never leave out a quirky twist. So his teddy bear is sporting none other than a satin corset, which nearly resembles something Madonna would have worn in her “Vogue” video. But seriously, I am actually a little frightened by this bear. It must be the bust, pointy and so triangular or the huge blue eyes, looking at me somewhat possessed. Not to mention, I’m not sure if getting a bear dressed in a satin corset would make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Actually knowing me, I would get all pissy at my man and ask him if he is trying to tell me I should dress like that for him more often. So if you men are reading this and think your lady is anything like me, this bear may be a major no-no. But for those of you who would like to purchase this bear, this fur and satin friend can be yours for around $131 USD at Galerie Gaultier online.

I am utterly disturbed by the sheer overwhelming femininity y0ny radiates out of that TFT of mine. While most of Dorrie Lane’s stuff makes me really grateful to have been born with a queue and a set of complementary balls, the Pussy Purse just hits my taste right on the spot. It’s the perfect accessory for any Jane Doe to manifest her emancipated femme that never broke through the physical shell, to attract curious looks and solicit her vagina in a… yeah… pocket kinda way, while John Doe might find replacement for his worn-out Fleshlight. Brilliant! While you are at it, why not satisfy your urge for play and get yourself a custom-made $400 Wondrous Vulva Puppet. Sheesh, I’ve seen my fair share of www weirdness over the years, but this just scares me. I would like to suggest to Dorrie to cut the hallucinogenic wonder stix and get laid. ‘Cuz you know she craves it bad when there’s pussy purses and puppets involved. For $12 through y0ni.com.

P.S. I feel the sudden need to engage in some male activity. Anyone up for some beer and football?

Before you look at this and say “that is not a purse”, just let me justify this to you as I have to myself. When I cam upon this new Dior Princess Ring for Lips, I fell in love and decided I had to write about it, and how I have justified it is that it acts like a purse because it encloses goods and protects them, see my point (just nod). So back to the new love of my life, this Dior Princess Ring for Lips. The dazzling ring can either be worn on the finger or attached to a bag or belt or belt loop or whatever suits your pleasure. When you open this glorious beauty, you will find two shades of silky lipstick and gloss that can be used to make your lips lucious and plump and irresistable.

If any of you have been watching Sheer Dallas, I know you may be thinking this ring is nearly as showy as something someone would wear on the show, but I think its a gorgeous accessory. The ring is made of silver metal with enamel and crystal-trimmed mirrored top, so after application you can admire your sweet pucker! Approximatly 1.5″ circumference can be worn on your finger or dangled with the chain as an accesorry anywhere you would like. It opens to reveal a lipstick (sheer berry) and a gloss (shimmering pink) from the Dior Pink Majesty collection. Call me crazy but for $50 at eLuxury I’m not sure why anyone would pass this up (I’m going to buy the Princess Ring for Eyes too, don’t worry, I won’t wear them together)!

If it weren’t for the spotless credibility of the store carrying it, I’d think it was a belated April Fools joke. Hong Kong based online boutique Pisa.com.hk is a great source for rare premium designer goods and promises to carry the newest glam goodies for your shopping pleasures. Aside from targeting mainly the far east with luxury western fashion, they also seem to get their hands on very unique gems that just fall out of the usual line.

The Louis Vuitton computer mouse is just one of those gems that make you cringe in shock & cower in awe at the same, convenient time. Die-hard Louis fans can rest their paws on the mouse for HK $2,090, which equates to roughly 270 dollars American. Verdict: You must be kidding me. For almost 300 bucks you get a vintage PS/2 connector, no mouse wheel, a casing that suggests breaking upon the hundredth click and an absolute lack of smooth optical tracking. Louis Vuitton could have at least pimped out a quality Logitech mouse and slapped their LV logo on it… but this is just too painful. More info here.

P.S. Pisa carries the Louis Vuitton Monogram Denim I talked about yesterday. The Speedy goes for little over $1800.

As you may recall, when we were in Paris we saw the brand new Prada Trick Keychains, which were not all fully available in the US at the time, but now they are everywhere. So why not feature more of them now for your viewing pleasure. Best part is there are 6 I would like to feature all under $100. Ah yes, you may be thinking that paying this price for a keychain is insane, but you don’t want to miss out on the craze, trust me. These quirky charms are fun and can add a festive touch to a handbag, keychain, belt, belt loops, or whatever you would like. Be creative! (If you can be super creative make sure to tell us about how you wear your Prada Trick Keychain)

On to the keychains. First lets begin with love and the Prada Heart Trick Keychain. Made of leather with silver details, featuring the embossed Prada name on front, key ring and clasp, this charm is lovely. How about some fiery flame? If your not as much into the loving heart as you are into the fiery flame, take a look at the Flame Trick Keychain. Also made of leather with silver details and attached key ring and clasp, this trick gives more of a flare and can show off your wild side. Feeling bad to the bone? The Prada Skull and Crossbones Trick Keychain can suit your needs. Again made of leather and silver details with the attached key ring and clasp, this trick is chic and rugged all in one and can show off your biker-chick side. But if you are into wings and things, how about the Prada Butterfly Trick Keychain for a softer feel. Need I mention it is made of the same leather and silver detailing as the others? I think not. And for you animal lovers, Prada hasn’t let you down with their cutesy Prada Teddy Bear Trick Keychain. Made of the materials as the latter. Now for my favorite, which I have already bought and can’t stop playing with, the Prada Robot Trick Keychain. We are past Y2K and computers and technology still run our lives, so I like to show off my tech side with this Robot Trick Keychain. It’s funky and fun and of course, made with leather and silver detailing. All of these can be yours for $99 at Smart Bargains.
