Technology Fashion For Obama - Senator Obama, That Is

Blogs and the tabloid news have been full of comments on Michelle Obama's fashion sense. But, what can we say for the candidate Obama? We often hear presidential, but if you break that down to fashion terms, we think that translates to classic, conservative, and clean lined. Matching that look to a laptop bag isn't too hard for us to do.

Skip the backpacks, messenger bags and other non-traditional silhouettes. Our style advice to Senator Obama is to stick with a classic laptop brief, like aaron irvin's double gusset flap laptop case. While this comes in burnt sienna, we recommend that Senator Obama stick with black for a more presidential look. Another stunning selection suitable for Capitol Hill is mcklein's harrison partners laptop briefcase. The more structured look is even sharper because of the full grain, oil tanned leather of which it is made. Perfect in Washington is the secure key lock to keep the wrong folks out when the Secret Service is not looking.

As a side note, take a look at the Runway to Change section of the Obama campaign store. You can't say that he does not have some care for fashion, since his team has tagged the likes of designers Tory Burch, Vera Wang, Juicy Couture, and Diane von Furstenburg to create fashion for his campaign.

What Laptop Bag Matches Sarah Palin's Shoes?

This is by no means meant to be a politically charged blog. But, at the risk of mentioning anything political, we have to ask if you saw Sarah Palin's shoes at her acceptance speech? Stunning red peep toe pumps in a patent leather jumped out to me on television. (Is that shallow for a first impression of a vice presidential acceptance speech?)

We're not sure if Madame Palin has considered a laptop bag to match her sharp shoes, but we have a few in mind. One that jumps out immediately is metrochic's paris laptop bag in patent leather: a perfect match with both the color and the hardware elements. For a more traditional look, mcklein lake forest laptop bag in red (of course) will work for carrying a laptop and important papers to the Hill. When headed on the road, rimowa's wheeled laptop case in salsa matte adds a splash of color to what is otherwise a very functional, hard sided wheeled case, fully equiped with a TSA friendly lock.
