UPDATE: Violet May has generously agreed to give Bag Snob readers a 12% discount (in addition to the 17.5% discount of VAT) for the first FIVE readers to purchase a KYDD Laptop bag! That means the $970 bag can be yours for $704! Enter code: BSNOB12 at check out!.
I saw these sleek and fabulous computer bags at Violet May London designed by owner/designer Claire Collins and immediately ordered two in white (the other one is for Kelly, I am not that greedy!). We have been on the hunt for the perfect bag to store our precious laptops for years and I think we have finally succeeded! Without our machines we'd just be two friends obsessing over handbags on the phone so of course we want the very best for them. And these cases from Violet May are the best. Not only are these cases ultra functional, they are beautifully made with meticulous attention to every little detail. I have a computer bag from Barneys and it is frustrating to have to take it in and out of the bag. Violet May's structured laptop bag unzips around the entire case so I can work on my computer without having to remove it from the case! This is the modern day briefcase for chic fashionistas and was even awarded the "Best New Laptop Case" by InStyle magazine in the Oct '07 issue!
As for the scrumptious candy colored satin lining, could you just die? I love that my computer will be cradled in the soft padded satin lining, it's so luxurious! The bags are carefully handcrafted in Spain and made of a sturdy leather with snakeskin effect from an Italian tannery. Fits up to a 15.4” laptop, power supply & cables, A4 papers, PDA and cellphone.
From designer Claire Collins: "Each product is made from end to end by one craftsman using traditional techniques that have been in use for over 100 years. We wanted to manufacture in Europe to leverage both the leather goods heritage & the possibility of a close working relationship with our supply chain. The atelier in Spain where we manufacture is a small family run operation that has produced goods for many of the top European luxury brands. We are delighted to be working with them. We believe that people do care about the origin of their products and we can vouch for ours."
Now the question is, what color are you getting?
Price: €717.80* / $970.00* (17.5% vat will be deducted at check out for Americans and non-EU countries)
Great Bag!
Those are some really colorful laptop bags. It seems to have the wow effect, and all it does is makes my dig my purse further to see where can I get this to buy.
