Blame
Apple for the profusion of roundish, white space-looking accessories — because of them I was struck by how "unusual" this
Computer Brush ($32) looks, even though it really resembles traditional house-cleaning supplies.
One side of the bristles is stiff to get out crumbs and other ucky crap from your keyboard; the other side is soft, antistatic goat hair to dedustify your monitor. The promise of cleanliness is what piques my interest, but to be honest, it's the back-to-basics styling that has me sold.

I've featured
lots of luxurious items on these pages, but rest assured, I have my favorites. Although now is not the time for me to be dropping wads of dough on some designer laptop case that I covet, I can still keep my short list of items close by just in case I win the lottery. Cause you know, stranger things have happened!

Geeks are a different breed altogether: We know that there are some things in life that aren't really essential, but are a must-have — whether it be for street cred, bragging rights, or we were just wooed by the fantastic out of sheer boredom.
You know what I mean. So I've rounded up my favorite pointless and useless geek accessories that have graced the pages of geeksugar that you just can't resist.

Making my way around WonderCon's expo floor was a pain in the neck — literally. I had to keep an eye out for
all those awesome costumes, which meant straining my neck left and right all weekend! So it was a nice break coming across the booth of
Spicy Brown — the home of these super cute
Tofu Robot figures ($20) as well as some geek chic tees and accessories.

The Kate Spade "noel mark" was created as a simple, graphic icon for the company. While I'm usually overwhelmed by patterns, I can't help but be charmed by this
Classic Noel Portable Media Case (translation: iPhone case) because the pattern provides a nice juxtaposition against the iPhone's classic clean lines. It was actually designed to fit the iPhone, iTouch, and all iPod classic styles.
