We’ve seen a TARDIS purse or two in our day, but this version from Krukru Studio is as good as it gets. The TARDIS is 100% wool and measures 13.8? (H) x 7? (W)—but if it’s anything like the real thing you shouldn’t have any problems fitting stuff inside.

Hard shell backpacks are normally one of those products that seem genius but are never quite as handy as they seem. This one is lightweight and practical though. It’s cut from one piece of copolymer and folds open to show multiple compartments. It only weighs 2.5lbs, and it can fit a 15″ laptop. For added bonus, you can pretend you’re a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle while wearing it.

If you’ve always envied the flat, inked look of cartoon characters’ handbags, you’re in luck. These “Jump From Paper” bags provide the 2D style you crave along with “bright and cheerful” colors and plenty of storage space for personal belongings and even a laptop. Three styles are available, each offering different dimensions and color combinations.

This adorable little girl was more than a little nervous to fulfill her duties as a flower girl for her mother’s wedding. She also has autism, which made the prospect of getting up in front of all the guests particularly daunting.
She spent the morning hiding under her bed until her aunt coaxed her out with the promise of a Yoda backpack. After a quick trip to the toy shop, she appeared to feel safer with Yoda hovering over her shoulder. So, when it came time to head to the church, the girl refused to go without the backpack.
Her mother obliged of course, and the young Padawan was able to get through the ceremony without a problem thanks to her Jedi master. The result is one of the sweetest wedding pics ever taken.

We’re a big fan of Timbuk2 bags here at Fashionably Geek, and this special edition American flag version made for Nancy Pelosi is pretty freakin’ sweet. Plus, it was actually made in the US at Timbuk2′s San Francisco factory.
I suspect Timbuk2 would sell the living crap out of these bags if they mass produced them but, sadly, this version is only one of two that were produced.

If you are too lazy to make one of these awesome TARDIS duct tape bags yourself, not to worry. Apparently, pre-orders are coming soon. (Sadly, that was only for the iPad 2 duct tape magnetic jacket).

Last week we first got wind of the upcoming Powerbag lineup, and though we’ve seen plenty of gadget-charging bags in the past, these looked to be of a higher quality. Naturally, we wanted to try out one of the bags for ourselves—and we came away fairly impressed.
The upcoming Powerbag line certainly isn’t the first backpack/messenger bag charging system, but it might be one of the most stylish. Check out the features:
- Powerbag comes charged and ready to go!
- Connect up to four (4) mobile devices at a time using the included pre-routed connectors (1 micro, 1 mini, 1 Apple) and one USB port inside every Powerbag; keep devices connected or plug-in when you need more power.
- The exclusive Powerbag Charging System will automatically detect the connected devices in the bag and send the right amount of power to optimally charge each one.
- To recharge Powerbag, plug into any standard wall outlet with the included AC Adapter. Powerbag comes with a built-in, lightweight, rechargeable and removable battery to get you through your day (available with a 3000 mAh or 6000 mAh battery based on model).
- When plugged in, Powerbag will charge all connected devices first and then charge its own battery.
The Powerbag line will launch this October in five different styles (with multiple colors) at retailers like Best Buy and Office Max for $139.99. We are expected to get our hands on a review unit soon, so stay tuned to find out whether or not these bags are worth the price.
