Laptop sleeve ‘great alternative’ to bag

A laptop sleeve can prove a stylish alternative to bags for transporting computers, according to one reviewer.

Shiny Shiny’s Zara Rabinowicz claims "no matter how much you pretend a laptop bag can answer your woes, it just ends up being bulky and annoying".

However, if "you carry this season’s hottest over-sized bags", a sleeve can just "slide" inside, she continues, highlighting a leather sleeve from 21st Century Diva priced at £125.99.

Lined with suede "to keep your baby comfy", the sleeve is embossed with small "ostrich-like pints" and can carry laptops of up to 13.3-inches, she adds.

Lucy Hedges, also writing for the review site, recently recommended Knomos’ Melilla and Lausanne laptop bags, which she claimed have been "styled to fit around your lifestyle".

Priced between £150 to £195, leather and fabric bags in the collections are available in both 13-inch and 15-inch sizes while a limited edition mock-croc version is only available in a 15-inch size.
