It has become a de facto aspect of our existence– our reliance on certain technologies that, for better or for worse, let us work while we play (play while we work), and remain in constant communication. With recognition that your Blackberry and laptop may feel like permanent appendages, we could not resist these accessories for decking your gadgets with flair…
  
  

For the most fashion-minded laptops… Take a “cool again” bag maker best known for unstructured, lightweight duffels and totes (Le Sportsac) , and pair with one of the hippest names in designer fashion (Stella McCartney), and you’ve got a soon-to-be must-have for any fashion-conscious laptop. True to Stella McCartney’s ethos, both bags are made of a 100% recycled material, and are available now on a pre- order basis only, for $120.

For the Pearl, That Prefers Snakeskin… Lose the standard black plastic case and upgrade your Blackberry holder to one like this, in shimmer white snakeskin leather. This one is designed specifically for the Blackberry Pearl 8100, with the claim that “no two are alike,” but all dress it up while protecting its perfectly Pearly face. Available for $59.99 from Case-Mate (Though should you feel a Paris Hilton competitive urge, Case-Mate also sells a diamond- encrusted case for $20,000). Please don’t.

For the MacBook Air That Loves its Own Commercial… Apple found the perfect iconic image to depict just how slim its new Macbook Air notebook is, perching it atop a basic manila interoffice envelope in their now-familiar TV spots. Should you be so trendy as to already have a new Air of your own, you can flaunt it further by toting it in… an interoffice envelope-styled case. Available from a couple of different niche sites, including interofficemac.com (this version zippers and can be customized) at an average price point of $29.99.

For the iPhone, or ipod, or Treo that likes fast fashion… IStyles has created a line of stylish soft cases whose proportions work equally well for your iPod or certain smartphones like the iPhone or Treo. In a range of different looks from “Autumn Leaves” to “Couture Jeans”– as each case is only $9.99, this can be your gadget’s version of an H&M outfit.
