Laptop Love

I’ll never forget the Sex and the City episode when Carrie’s laptop crashed. She was working on her column and BAM!…sad Mac flashed, a bomb exploded and just like that her beloved electronic friend was dead. She rushed it to the computer doctor wrapped in this gorgeous pashmina shawl. Ever since then, I’ve always wrapped my lappy in a shawl whenever it needed to be transported. While this may have been stylish, it never really protected lappy the way an electronic device needs to be protected.

This stunning leather laptop bag by London designer Violet May is exactly what I’ve been looking for. It’s made of Italian leather and lined with soft satin. It comes with a sky blue silk taffeta strap that comfortably molds to the shoulder. It has a luscious plum interior and stellar gold fittings. The best part is that this bag has a detachable gold clutch. VERY clever.

This bag is a bit on the pricey side at £197.50, but a laptop is surely a treasure worth protecting. Heck with a bag this beautiful, who even needs a computer?
