The moment I saw this gorgeous laptop sleeve on Coolhunting, I fell in love. Made by Byrd & Belle out of soft but sturdy felted merino wool and eco-friendly hand-dyed leather, the sleeve fits both 13- and 15-inch laptops. At $72, it's pricier than many laptop sleeves, but its clean lines, chic design, and cozy texture make it one of my Fall must haves.

Holy smokes, folks: a laptop bag for $998 before tax (and I thought that $800 Burberry bag was excessive). I don't know if I have ever even seen $998 before tax. But whoever has, I suppose, is in the unique position of being able to purchase one of these delightfully colored ostrich-skin Bodhi Ostrich Laptop Sleeves from Nordstrom (to reiterate, they each cost $998).

This Abby Patent laptop sleeve by Lauren Merkin (a cool emerging designer) reminds me a lot of the oversized clutch trend — the foldover closure makes it look like it's holding your going-out essentials instead of your laptop.
Usually I buy sleeves to put inside a bag, but this one could be comfortable carried on its own. But I worry that the scalloped edge and black patent would get old fast.

If I'm in the market for a new bag, I tend to want to pair it with a new laptop sleeve. This is because realistically, it's only a matter of time before my bag (no matter if it's a laptop bag or not) becomes a transportation device for my trusty computer. So when I saw (and salivated over) the Vertical Tote ($155) on Flight 001, I immediately went on the hunt for a laptop sleeve that would match the adorable flower print on the inside lining.

I'm basically having a huge love affair with Rebecca Minkoff right now — not only are her handbags soft and luxe, but she also remembers the tech that we fab ladies have to lug around.
She wowed me with her outrageous-yet-amazing hot pink Patent Leather Laptop Sleeve, and she's keeping up her wowing with the Virginia Laptop Sleeve.
It's a bit more subdued, but it's no less fabulous — the exterior is ostrich-embossed leather in soft pinky-gray, and the interior is faced in her signature striped lining and padded enough for your laptop.

Look, Rebecca Minkoff, do you have a crush on me or something? It's just that you keep designing laptop bags and sleeves that I routinely become obsessed with, and it's like you heard my cries for more chic laptop bags for those of us gals who are constantly toting our computers around. What's the deal?

It's true, I have complained in the past about the gadget accessory offerings from Juicy Couture. They're just so over the top usually, and no laptop needs to be dressed in a pink sweatsuit like an LA soccer mom.
But finally, it seems they've dropped a new bag that is not only not over-the-top (under the top?), it couldn't be more Spring-appropriate.

The last bag I saw by Hard Graft made me want to sell all my furniture to be able to afford it.
Now they're back with a new fleece line called the HIGH Collection, and it has me feeling what its name suggests.
The gorgeous set is comprised of cases for laptops, cameras, iPhones, iPods, even a Kindle case (and I know my way around chic Kindle cases).
