Most laptop bags are either black or leather or both, and quite frankly, they all look pretty manly. That’s why I want to recommend the Laptop Tote from Kalio Chic because they have six different patterns and colors to choose from, none of them are at all masculine. The bags are stylish enough to pass off as a purse but industrious enough to protect a fragile computer. The laptop tote comes with a matching wristlet pouch, and a back pocket/flap that lets you stack the bag over your rolling luggage handle for easy business travel. The zippered front pocket has many organizational details such as slots for pens, credit cards and a place to keep your laptop charger. For $70 this tote is well worth it, keeping your pricey notebook computer safe and stylish at the same time. [buy it]

I bet you expected a quote from Edgar Allen Poe to start things out, but the Raven Sweater can speak for itself. Keep in mind the availability of two background colors- white and grey - for this aviary inspired screen print. For all those raven haters, I think the wide necked sweater is actually quite lovable. The bare tree and ominous raven with red accented eyes seems to call out to me, “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,” and then mysteriously trails off. Hmm, I wonder where I’m getting all this inspiration from? The Raven Sweater comes in sizes extra small through large, costing $86. [buy it]

This Diamond Ring Paperweight is so hot. It’s like pure sexiness translated into faux diamond and platinum. You don’t need a fiance or a sugar daddy to rock this, you only need Mr. Andrew Jackson, aka $20 (I don’t want people trying to find the nearest A. Jackson in the phone book and calling to convince him to buy them a jumbo diamond!). And so, the classic diamond ring, no matter what size or how cheezy it looks, will never go out of style. Plus, this rock weighs down all the mess on one’s desk so there’s an actual reason beside aesthetic purposes to get one…or two. [buy it]

A hanging slant sounds pretty insipid, to say the least, but this Ailanthus in Chocolate Hanging Slat is anything but dull. Hang it up on the wall, or in large rooms or spaces creating a delicate barrier. Sunlight easily flows through illuminating the colors, but the slat is opaque at night, allowing for privacy. This slate is wrinkle resistant and easy to clean since it’s made from polyester. Add this beautiful hanging slat to your home decor and the compliments will come rolling in. It costs $116, and by the way, Ailanthus is a type of tree also known as the tree-of-heaven. [buy it]

Sure to keep your toes from being frostbitten, the Ugg Dakota Shoes made from shearling fleece is one way to stay warm all winter long. The moccasin style is super “in” right now, and these shoes have all the qualities to fit the bill: gathered seam, rounded toe, bow detail and stitched seams. The inside is just as nice with a flexible midsole and a comfortably cushioned footbed. Cushioned comfort footbed, flexible low profile midsole, driving style wraparound traction outsole. Australians’ sure know how to design a good pair of shoes! The Ugg Dakota Shoes are priced at $100. [buy it]
