This was Martha’s first show that had stay at home dads and their kids on the show. Word has it that the set didn’t necessarily have the standard “order” that Martha Stewart is used to, but no doubt the 100+ dads loved their take home gift of a cool diaper bag.

Know a stay at home dad (or mom) that would like this diaper bag? Post a fun comment on Kolotalk about where this diaper bag will go. We’ll choose a winner at random from anyone who makes a post or retweets this post (limit one entry per post and one per retweet). Winner will be chosen by December 8, 2011, so that the bag can arrive in time for the holidays, and winner will be posted on www.facebook.com/kolobags

Did we just say stewardess? We sure did – as 1963 was a time when flying was glam and “flight attendent” was not yet the PC term. What we love about the era is the cross between dressy style, like white gloves and pill box hats, crossed with funky designs, like the pan am orion bag that started it all. Check out the scenes in the show where you see the ladies carrying their pan am logo’d gear, including this bag. What we also spot are the not so short hemlines and always present hosiery.

You may not know that Pan Am was considered one of the most fashionable airlines. Designers like Edith Head created the stylish uniforms. The iconic Pan Am cabin bag was given to first class passengers as a reminder of their trip. (In today’s world, anyone is luck to be given a peanuts on a commercial flight!) The great news is that the brand has resurfaced even though the airline is now long gone. Stylish belts, accessories, and of course, bags, with the Pan Am brand are all available. And while laptops were not even science fiction in 1963, several of the bags are padded laptop bags, a needed update for the 21st century.

Blogs and the tabloid news have been full of comments on Michelle Obama’s fashion sense. But, what can we say for the candidate Obama? We often hear presidential, but if you break that down to fashion terms, we think that translates to classic, conservative, and clean lined. Matching that look to a laptop bag isn’t too hard for us to do.

Skip the backpacks, messenger bags and other non-traditional silhouettes. Our style advice to Senator Obama is to stick with a classic laptop brief, like aaron irvin’s double gusset flap laptop case. While this comes in burnt sienna, we recommend that Senator Obama stick with black for a more presidential look. Another stunning selection suitable for Capitol Hill is mcklein’s harrison partners laptop briefcase. The more structured look is even sharper because of the full grain, oil tanned leather of which it is made. Perfect in Washington is the secure key lock to keep the wrong folks out when the Secret Service is not looking.

As a side note, take a look at the Runway to Change section of the Obama campaign store. You can’t say that he does not have some care for fashion, since his team has tagged the likes of designers Tory Burch, Vera Wang, Juicy Couture, and Diane von Furstenburg to create fashion for his campaign.
