Best Bet: Making the Case

Laptops are more than a means of having a computer handy whenever you want; they’re practically accessories in themselves. And dressing them up has become a lot more fun. The new Virginia laptop case by Rebecca Minkoff is large enough to stash most fifteen-inch laptops, and the canvas is coated for extra water-resistant protection. The black-and-white design is graphic without being overpowering. But the best part is the adjustable strap, which means you have the option of tucking it away inside a larger bag or slinging it over your shoulder, which may come in handy when you’re rushing around town.
