Holiday Tech Gifts - Chic tech gifts for the fashionista
For the third post in our Holiday Tech Gifts series...well, we think you're going to like this.Now that our tech is part of our every day, we think it should be as fashionable as your favorite everyday handbag. Fortunately, there are tons of designers jumping in to design tech, cases and carriers, one more chic than the next. Here are just a few of our favorite picks for holiday gifting to make a fashionable recipient say, wow. Especially if, say, that Kindle Fire case comes with an actual Kindle Fire too.
Knomo Lizard Finish Laptop Handbag
One of our favorite laptop bag designers comes through with this gorgeous, splurgey shoulder bag that's designed to protect a laptop up to 14". But it doesn't look anything like a laptop bag. Which is exactly the point. ($395, Knomo Bags)
Neon Yellow E-Reader Cover
Try losing your Kindle in your big tote bag, now. ($58, Henri Bendel)
Rebecca Minkoff python Pop Phone headset Hello? Fabulous calling. (Ha.) Love the 70s era snake print, on a 70s era handset, attached to your 21st century mobile phone. ($48, Top Shop)
It's just that much nicer to wake up in the morning when your alarm clock/phone dock looks a little something like this. ($125, Soundfreaq)
One of the most highly rated phones of the season also happens to be the most gorgeous. With looks like this, who needs a case? ($.99, ATT store with contract; regularly $399)
Why choose between staying warm and listening to tunes this winter? We can't think of a teen who wouldn't love these. ($88, Kate Spade)
Lucky Brand iPod Touch Case
Love the subtle skull design, which will make you feel fashionable, even if your playlist is stuck in a very bad decade. ($20.69, Target)
Deanna Cheuk Artist Series Microsoft Touch Mouse
Your desktop (the real one) will look that much more dazzling with one of the coolest mice on the market, especially when it comes from the pretty artist series. This one is among our favorites.
($79.95, Microsoft Store)
Marc Jacobs Heart Earbuds
Gives new meaning to loving what you're listening to. ($42, Net-a-Porter)
More sophisticated than flashy, this is a gorgeous leather iPad case for your favorite professional. It comes in several colors, but the brown is pretty swanky and will look great in any season. ($129.95, Knomo)
Juicy USB Bracelet
It looks like a bracelet, but it secretly holds a USB drive to keep you fashionably prepared at any time. Way cool, in one of two colors. ($34.99 on sale, Juicy Couture)
Christian Louboutin spiked twill iPad case
If you've got someone on your list deserving of a serious, big-time, high-fashion splurge, you can't beat this unreal iPad case from Louboutin. Who else will have one that will match the soles of her shoes? ($695, net-a-porter)
Sometimes the coolest initials to sport on an accessory...are your own. ($28, Anthropologie)

Hmmm, it's so hard to decide which item I like the most! The USB bracelet is so fun and handy, and the clock is so fashionable with its color blocking, but in the end I think I would pick the Christian Louboutin as my favorite item. Thanks for the great ideas CMT!
That Nokia Lumia 900 phone looks AWESOME.
Juicy USB Bracelet
I love the alram clock/phone dock!
The laptop handbag! Love it!
I love our Soundfreaq Sound Kick, and would love the alarm clock featured here!
It is hard to decide but I would love to have that laptop handbag, though the price is a tad steep for me, or the Nokia Lumina 900 phone. I'm seriously considering switching to that phone first chance I get as I am already with ATT.

Marc Jacobs heart ear buds - Unnecessary but so fun!
Tech earmuffs--perfect!
I'd love to have the Soundfreaq Sound Rise. My current alarm clock is so bare bones it doesn't even have a snooze button. And I don't have a speaker/docking system yet, so it would be a double bonus!
Laptop handbag. None of the rest of my family (all males) would go anywhere near it for once!
