Hot Shop: January 23, 2012

For the ladies, we love:

MARC by Marc Jacobs laptop and iPad cases
Usually, there is not much sexy about laptop or iPad cases, yet these items are YP staples and really should look as good as the rest of us, don’t you think? MARC by Marc Jacobs now offers a bright, surfer-chic way to protect your laptop or iPad, with its wetsuit-inspired case, complete with distinctive whimsical and retro MARC by Marc Jacobs elements. The cases come in a choice of purple, hot pink, turquoise or black foamed rubber, with jumbled logo embossing, logo plaque in center, a two-way continental zip top and rounded corners to resist tearing.

Available in 3 sizes, here

11″H x 15″W x 1″D; designed to hold a 15″ laptop computer.
11″H x 15″W x 1″D; designed to hold a 13″ laptop computer.
10″H x 8″W x 1″D; designed to hold iPad.

For the men, we love:

BoomCase Speakers
We know two things about the YP male; he loves music, and he loves gadgets. Spice up your MP3 playing device with a retro, vintage suitcase customized into a self-powered portable stereo system. The nostalgic-looking cases are built with wood and leather to produce superior sound and each case can be custom-made to the user’s liking.

TheBoomCase will last 9+ hours on a single charge and works with an iPod/iPhone or any device with a headphone plug. In addition to running on batteries, the BoomCase can also be plugged in when the party moves inside and are lightweight, with most BoomCases weighing between 11-16 lbs. To save on weight, you can opt for a plug-in only version.
