Apple...wow...despite my previous grievances against the company (the transition between the PC and the Apple was incredibly arduous and painful for me), I have to admit that they don't do anything half-assed. Even their packaging is creative. I can only imagine the time and thought they spend in designing one product. Which is why now I've kind of become a fervent supporter of Apple and hiss angrily whenever I see Apple product knockoffs. -_-;; I mean, so much thought goes into the design and then when you have a company that sells the same design-except with a twist- it seems unethical. It's design-plagiarism!!

Apparently this brand's an authentic Japanese brand but one look can tell you that it's a Ipod copycat:
On a certain level, I can understand it and why people opt to buy the cheaper knockoffs. I mean, it's the same with fashion. If you're a college student, you obviously can't get afford that black quilted chanel clutch but if Forever21 carries it and sells it for $24, you'd buy it in a heartbeat.
And yes, I ended up getting the plum Incase for my laptop...I'll post photos of my MacBook later. *reserved spot*

I wanted a Mac book for college but they're a little pricey. :(
No H&M in two months?! The very thought makes me cringe ><
Hmmm . . . knock-offs are okay; fakes are not. Congrats on the new gear!
