Carolina Pad 2010 Bags and Totes Offer Style and Affordability

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Carolina Pad (www.carolinapad.com), the industry leader in fashion school and office products, is introducing new collections and formats for its 2010 fashion bags and totes. This year's collections feature the extraordinary style of Carolina Pad's Studio C™ brand, which effortlessly blends classic elegance and trendy design with superior functionality. Premiering at Office Max in early April, the end cap will include everyday totes, laptop totes and sleeves, netbook sleeves, and accessory clutches.  Studio C  bags offer amazing value. Prices range from $7.99 for the accessory clutch to $29.99 for the laptop tote.

The fashion collections look better than ever with the updated Simply Chic and new collections Royal Twist and TranZend. Consumers who like traditional design can express their style with Royal Twist or Simply Chic. Designed by Carolina Pad Signature Designer Jackie McFee, these great collections feature vibrant pink, yellow, and green accents. Nature-inspired TranZend's clean sophistication is perfect for the consumer who wants to keep it simple, yet stylish. But it's the special touches that make these bags fashion standouts. TranZend's everyday tote features beautiful, detailed embroidery for an extra punch of style.

New formats include everyday totes, netbook sleeves, and accessory clutches. Both the everyday and laptop totes offer roomy interiors and plenty of pockets for storing cell phones, disks, pens, and other everyday items. The padded computer sleeves provide protection for your computer and are checkpoint friendly — breeze through airport security checkpoints without removing your computer from its sleeve! Used alone or in larger bags, the zippered accessory clutch's compact size is an ideal choice for holding smaller items.

"The bags we carry, like the clothes we wear, are an expression of our personality and lifestyle," said Carolina Pad's Kathryn Thompson, vice president of marketing. "Whether you're headed to school or the office, or just need a great weekend tote, our bags carry the tools we need to manage everyday life.  Carolina Pad backpacks are not only cute and stylish, but also built to meet the needs of teen girls. The beautiful totes and sleeves help women stay organized."
