OK, so you don’t actually need to have a designer laptop sleeve, but if you will just look and see how hot this one is, I’m sure you can make room in your budget for it. I spotted the Marc by Marc Jacobs Pretty Nylon Laptop Case while browsing at Bloomie’s with my homey Danielle (an actual separate person with the same name as me—I’m not crazy *pinky swear*…lol) and because I always measure how much use I can get out of something before I make a purchase, I knew I had to have this bag because it’s super cute, can hold my netbook, AND it can double as an oversized clutch on its off days. At $68 it’s a bit steep for a laptop bag, but for a cute luxury treat it’s perfect!

The one I got isn’t showing up online, but there’s a few of them out there in different colors and sizes so check them out.
