The Fashionista loves her fashion — she LOVES to shop and keeps up on all the latest styles and trends, and the most important thing to her is that it looks pretty. Here are some Fashionista-worthy gifts.

Jtote Alix Laptop Tote Bag

If fashion is her passion

The Alix laptop bag is crafted from Brazilian Nappa leather, and adorned with a chain necklace to give it just the right amount of bling. One would think a bag so beautiful couldn’t be functional, but it is: An organized interior pocket system keeps the laptop protected and stores power cords, files, bottles and keys. It even has a secret zippered pocket for keeping the Fashionista’s special items hidden.

The Jtote Alix Laptop Tote Bag is available from  Jtote for $278. in three colors.

Stylebook App

Never wear the same outfit twice!

Wondering what to wear to that all-important event? The Stylebook helps the Fashionista decide what to wear and when to wear it. Create outfits and decide when to wear them with a calendar. Use the built-in camera to photograph wardrobe or import favorite items. Super fun and a great way to waste time if stuck in a DMV office.

Stylebook is available from iTunes for $3.99.
