Why oh why do people make a cool product and then ruin it with a “trendy” design?

A special bag for your techy devices can be pretty useful when traveling; keeping them close to you might be safer than just chucking them into the suitcase. The Chloe Dao Mobile Technology Handbag can carry your phone, MP3 player, console and all the cables and accessories you need for the perfect tech experience. Awesome! No more shoving them in the pockets of my laptop bag!

But… they couldn’t have stopped here. They made the bag pink. With a pair of red lips. Come on! Why don’t designers understand that “girl” does not equal “squee! pink!”. Chloe Dao is a former winner of Project Runway… I was expecting she’d have a better idea of what women like (then again, given what I see in fashion magazines… women like me - i.e. casual - are not the designers’ target, so I’ll just keep buying normal looking accesories from the men’s department).
