    • Stylish_Laptop_Cases_laptop_Bags.jpgI’m traveling a lot for work lately, and have become increasingly dependent on my laptop to keep me organized, efficient, and able to work from anywhere. My computer is a few years old now, and is showing a few signs of wear–namely due to my negligence when transporting the device. I don’t need necessarily need a fancy or high-fashion laptop case, but I do want one that’s durable and attractive enough that I won’t tire of it. 

    Since my old case is in sorry condition–stained, threadbare in spots, and with a broken zipper– I decided to round up some great new laptop cases and bags to see if I can find just the right one. There are tons of wonderful options here for both simple sleeves and more heavy duty work bags. Whether your style is minimalist, masculine, bold and bohemian, or urban sleek, there should be a case here to suit your style. Enjoy! 

    Do you have a favorite brand for laptop cases and accessories? I’d love to hear!

      Great roundup! I use a 17″ laptop, and recently had to go through a bag hunt of my own. I couldn’t believe how hard it was to find a stylish but sturdy bag for my 17″ that wasn’t a backpack.

      After a lot of searching, I ended up with the BillyKirk padded laptop bag, and am really happy with it. So for anyone that’s in the same dilemma I was in, take heart and know that there ARE some options for bigger laptops out there!

      In case anyone is looking for another option in a felt-like case, ReFleece is making semi-rigid, molded cases from old Patagonia jackets! Super low-impact on the environment (lower energy than even traditional recycled fleece) and made entirely in the U.S. Check them out at http://www.refleece.com, or on Facebook. Thanks for the roundup!

      My favorite laptop bag is the Samsonite Shuttle. I have the size meant for a mac air laptop, but I use it for my Alphasmart Neo digital typewriter. It has a cheerful pattern, handles, a shoulder strap and is well padded. It is keeping my machine nice and safe.
