Winter may be upon us, but the Christian Louboutin Pre Spring/Summer 2012 is here and it is ba-na-nas. Insanely intricate beading, deathly sharp spikes (and we’re talking so much more than the 60 mm of spikey stiletto), and colors that will knock you right back onto the beach you were at last August. All the pics after the jump.

Okay, this one isn’t that crazy. It’s actually oddly practical. I found this leather backpack, and oh man has it got my number! I’m in such need of a slim leather backpack that can house my laptop so I can bring it to work every day and write about fashion for all of you. [GASP!] So this is one for the team. One to make my body feel good on a daily basis. Something sleek that will enhance and yet hide on and within ever outfit. In short – @Best_Mom_Ever, would you seriously get this for me? (Hey everyone, that’s actually my Mom. Could you please tweet her and request that she get this for me? K Thanks!)

The new briefcase doesn’t even know it is one. Phillip Lim calls this bag the satchel, but check why this bag will take your look comfortably pro.
It’s tall enough to fit a 17-inch laptop for those big screened biddies. It is vertically integrated into your needs and takes it all up and down. Plus, the front expand-o-zip is ideal for tossing in extra shoes/gym clothes. You clearly won’t be carrying another bag with you.
Carry it in your hands like the businessmen of yore. Then dramatically swing and slam it onto a table and eloquently state your case. (jut be careful of your laptop!)

Everyone can use a little balance from time to time. And what Spa Week and Czeching out foreign spas have made me realize is that our backs are a precious, precious place. Even out the load you carry by taking on a backpack, and save the hunch for editorial. Right now, you can win the sleek Botkier Misha backpack on FashionIndie. But in case you’re not the lucky winner, here are 10 more that we love.

Purses and politics may not seem to go hand in hand, but these handbags speak otherwise. Whimsical designs may mask their cultural statements, but they exist nonetheless. Reflections on Nazi Germany and fashion gluttony? Click through to see what we mean.
