R2-D2 Felt Purse: A Real Bag of Tricks

Etsy shop KruKru Studio is known for making quirky bags in odd shapes and models, including a TARDIS purse, a Dalek purse and a bag that looks like a fire extinguisher. One of its latest items is this extremely well put-together little droid.

Thor’s Mjölnir Purse: Strong Enough for a Man, but Made for a Woman

Whoever the woman is who holds this purse, shall possess the power of Thor. And with it, the power of lipstick, mascara, and everything but the kitchen sink. Since Thor recently became a woman in the comic book, this Mjölnir purse seems particularly appropriate.

I’m not sure that Lady Thor would carry this into battle, but it makes a good fashion accessory. This Mjölnir hammer is a creation by Meryle Idzerda of Geek Retroactive. She made it by wrapping a cigar box with lambskin leather with a gunmetal finish.

It looks pretty good, and it can be yours for $250(USD) over on Etsy. If anyone tries to steal it, it’s going to hurt getting hit over the head with this thing.

Tribble Coin Purse Sadly Won’t Cause Coins to Multiply

Tribbles are sort of cute little furry characters that can cause all sorts of trouble. The little beasties multiply faster than rabbits and gum up the works leading to all sorts of problems. If you were overrun by tribbles, perhaps you could turn to using their pelts for something like this coin purse.

Whatever the futuristic version of PETA is might have issue with the skinning of tribbles though. The upside is that this tribble coin purse is made from faux fur, so you can relax. The fur is 100% nylon, so no tribble was killed in its making.

For a coin purse, it’s rather large and fluffy at 4.5″(w) x 3.5″(h) and it screams geek like few other things. Pick up your own tribble coin purse for $12.99 at ThinkGeek.

He will hold all of your stuff and thankfully will keep quiet while doing it. That’s good news because, I don’t know about you, but I don’t think I could stand to listen to him all day long.

Star Trek The Original Series Purse Comes Complete with Tribbles

What do you get the geek girl who has everything? Get her a Star Trek purse. This one even comes with little Tribbles attached. I don’t think a Tribble infestation should be a problem, unless your purse is full of quadrotriticale. If this is what you carry around with you, you have bigger problems than Tribbles.

trek pursemagnify

This purse has Star Trek images all over it, a removable Tribble key fob and a custom Delta charm. It measures 12-inches long x 9-inches tall x 5 1/4-inches wide. It is also printed all over with the Trek logo, phasers, Spock, Uhura, Bones, and more.

It will cost you $49.99(USD) from Entertainment Earth, and is part of a larger series of Star Trek merch coming from A Crowded Coop. You can pre-order now and it will ship in August. This purse makes a nice gift for female Trek mate.

iBag Seals Shut, Sends Alert When You’re on the Brink of Overspending

If you’re in danger of overspending every time you reach for your wallet, then the iBag might just be the thing you need. It’s an interactive wallet of sorts that seals itself shut in order to prevent its owner from spending money on non-essential stuff.

Smart Purse 620x414magnify

The iBag is dubbed as a “smart purse” that comes built with an Arduino processor and a real-time clock. The clock comes into factor as the bag uses that as the basis for sealing shut: at times when the shopper has been deemed to overspend, the bag can no longer be opened.

Finder.com.au’s iBag prototype has been designed to physically deter shoppers from accessing their wallets. The purse is also equipped with a GPS chip and LED lights that flash when a shopper gets too close to his or her favourite shops, or, as the company puts it: ‘when you’re entering a danger spending zone.’

RFID modules on the bag detect whenever the wallet leaves the purse, and a GSM module alerts someone about the shopper’s overspending habits (or tendency) as it happens.

You can find more information about the iBag here.

Everpurse Charges Your Phone When You’re out and About

How many times have you found your phone running low on battery when you need it the most? If you think that it has already been one too many times, then it’s time you got a portable battery pack, or maybe an Everpurse.

EverPursemagnify

The Everpurse is basically a power bank of sorts. The big (and obvious) difference is it comes in the form of a purse. It has a charging pocket inside where you’re supposed to put your phone. There’s a dock connector at the bottom that connects directly to your phone, so you won’t have to deal with any cords or wires anymore.

Charging the Everpurse itself is convenient, too. It charges by induction, so all you have to do is put it on its charging mat and leave it while it powers up.

The Everpurse comes in iPhone 5/5s/5c, iPhone 4/4S, and Samsung Galaxy S3/S4 variants, and is available online with prices ranging from $189 to $329 (USD) depending on the fabric you choose.

Everpurse is a Phone-Charging Purse

Everpurse

The holidays is a time of joy, laughter, and cheer. It also happens to be one of the most busiest times of the year. Lately, I find myself chasing after time, and juggling work, homework, blogging, and everything else is starting to make me more absentminded than usual. I’ve become so absentminded that I left the house three times last week with zero battery because I forgot to plug my phone into the charger.

Whether you forgot to charge your mobile or need to rush out mid-charge, the Everpurse will definitely come in handy for you. It looks snazzy on the outside, but it also happens to be a portable phone charger on the inside. The purse’s special charging pocket has a dock connector at the bottom which hooks it up with your device, so you won’t have to fish for cords while you’re on the go.

The Everpurse itself can be charged via induction by placing it on its charging mat. In turn, you can just leave the charging mat plugged in and drop the purse onto it whenever you need to charge it up. Pretty cool, right?

Everpurse is available online starting at $189.
