Sequined iPad Case by Dolce & Gabbana

The iPad is the hottest technological gadget since…well, since the iPhone. Apple does seem to have the market cornered on hot new devices. Anyways, these new hot commodities have spawned a frowing market for cases to carry them that range from the purely practical to the outrageously opulent. This sequined case by Dolce & Gabbana is of the latter variety.

This case is pretty and sparkly, and even a little practical, but frankly, I think it’s a little much. The leather is durable and practical, and the front pouch is a really great organizational feature. The sequins, however, make it seem a bit unreasonable for daily use. The iPad, after all, is the kind of thing that you want to take everywhere, and this is more of an evening wear style case. Plus, those dangly stars have got to go. Ick.

Wow.  These Italian leather handbags usually go for upwards of $300, but there is an accessory light at the end of the luxury tunnel this weekend.

And if the price isn’t perfect for a luxury guru, we don’t know what is!
