Jansport's Still Hookin' It Up, This Time With Laptop Sleeves

GeekSugar — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 13:00:53 -0700

My first accessory-brand loyalty was definitely brought on by Jansport. I insisted on all my backpacks being Jansport; they were the middle-school gold standard!

I hadn't thought about the brand until the other day, when I discovered that it was making laptop sleeves.

The prints don't all say homeroom, either; pick from zebra, pink plaid, guerrilla graffiti (which I'm strangely drawn to), a mod pink and brown print, or plain black. The handle on top means you don't need to toss it in a bag, and the sleeves also come with Jansport's legendary lifetime warranty!

Drew and Cameron Unload Some Paychecks at Barneys

Cameron and Drew (and Drew's 90's steeze Jansport backpack) had a little girls' shopping afternoon at Barneys this week. The girls probably have a lot to dish about, as both Cameron and Drew recently spent evenings with new flames (and in Cam's case, an old one as well). Plus, Cameron totally deserves to give herself a little reward for finally winning her lawsuit against The National Enquirer and getting them to issue a formal apology. No word yet as to whether either lady used lunchtime props to describe their new paramours, but I certainly wouldn't put it past these two. Oh to be a fly on that girl talk wall -- you just know it gets juicy.
