Senz Mini travel size umbrella
It really was way past time that someone did something about the umbrella. If you recently got drenched in these wicked storms that are plaguing different parts of the U.S., you would know what I mean. This unusual looking umbrellas claims to hear your pain. It does everything; folds for carrying in the bag, provides a clear forward view and withstand 40 mph winds! Why didn’t someone tell me about this on Tuesday when I got soaked in NYC’s storm? By the way, they also have this umbrella in larger sizes.

Cherry messanger bag - Pacha inspired?
when I saw this bag, it seemed a bit familiar. Actually it seemed a lot familiar. The cherries are just way too much like the logo of Pacha. See for yourself.
So okay, the leaves are red but still. Anyway, even if this is not an official Pacha bag, we still like it for its design and we really dig its wide strap and closure. It is made from recycled sails and has velcro to keep flaps in place.

RSABBT Cotton webbing barrel o’ belts
Maybe its the way its packaged and presented, but we really dig this concept. Cotton belts are a summer must for a heck of a lot of people and having a few around is a darn good idea. These are essentially the traditional 100% cotton webbed belts available in sets of three “unusual” colors. Each belt is 48″ long.

Quilted “Una” tote for 13 inch laptops
If you tote around a cool laptop in an ugly bag then shame on you. Considering just ubiquitous laptops have become it is strange that there still persists a lack of attractive laptop bags for ladies (men seem be doing fine with ugly, much to our chagrin). Granted these laptop bags are not cheap but they are padded, classically styled and carefully detailed. There are three compartments with numerous interior pockets to keep you organized.

On Sale: Paul Smith credit card case
Could it be that we like this case because we are partial to stripes? Well stripes on one side since the other side is black. Paul Smith is a fav around here so there is no surprise that we like this little case to keep those credit cards happy and secure. The outside pocket can house one frequently used one. Hope this helps in reducing that almost-bursting wallet that you have been carrying around. And its on sale now at the Saks.
