Remember Toms shoes? They're the Argentinian style espadrilles that got so much attention because for every pair sold, the company donates a pair of new shoes to a child in need. Well Toms now makes these crazy wrap boots that seem to be inspired by Ace bandages. They're basically the same as the regular espadrilles, with a long piece of elastic wrap that extends from the ankle. You use that long piece to wrap your legs up however you want - it's held in place with multiple (included) Velcro fasteners. At least this way you don't have to worry if your calves are too big or too small for the boots.

If you are the woman carrying the Acme Made Trixy laptop tote bag this morning in San Francisco's SOMA district, we apologize for stalking you. We were just trying to get a better look at your bag, and the little "Acme Made" tag was so small that we couldn't read it from a respectful distance. We admire your taste in bags, especially after looking this one up. The Trixy is actually 3 bags in one: A rugged, fashionable laptop bag good for businesswomen and students alike; a matching padded and removable laptop sleeve; and a matching zippered and removable accessory pouch. It comes in several colors, but the brown with the pink trim is definitely our favorite. Santa, are you listening?

Welcome to the latest episode of New Adventures in Men's Underwear. In case you haven't been paying attention, women's underwear has kinda peaked with thongs and push-up bras; there isn't much left to do that hasn't already been done. Men's underwear, however, is a different story. For years it was all about white briefs and boxers. Then came solid colors! stripes! boxer briefs! Now it's all about graphics. On the outside you may be Regular Office Guy, with your conservative oxford shirt and khakis, but there's a party going on underneath. And one of the latest guests is Clever, a line of colorful, comfortable trunks with fun designs that include DJs, dragons, frogs, and - our favorite - the punk rocker shown here.

We have a love-hate relationship with Sigerson Morrison shoes. We love their designs but we hate their prices. So we're wondering if anyone's picked up any of the shoes in the Sigerson Morrison line for Target. Some of these ankle boots, pumps, and flats look really cute, and at $30 - $40 the prices are right, but how do they fit and feel? Will they last more than one season? Let us know what you think in the comments section.
