Product feature - Laptop bag from IUptown Chic!

Okay, so I was far too excited about this purchase!  :D


I ordered myself a handmade laptop bag from IUptown Chic, in grey and blackberry.


I am so pleased with this bag.  As someone who is normally glued to their laptop but only had a padded sleeve for it, this was a perfect find on Etsy.  It's gorgeous, obviously very well made, and does the job perfectly.


The bag has a main pocket for the laptop which is lightly padded, so it offers some protection for your computer.  You state when you buy it what size laptop you have, so it fits very well!  That said, I still managed to get my A4 pad of paper in with my computer - brilliant.


It has a larger pocket on the front, which I've put my charger in, and two smaller pockets which I've used for my external harddrive and cable, and iPhone and cable.  There's room for other items in these pockets too, but that's everything I wanted to carry!


The bag has two straps with popper studs to close it, and then a removable, adjustable shoulder strap that feels very strong for how thin it is.  My only slight criticism is that you can still see the laptop in the bag, it's slightly taller, so it's not a complete disguise that you're carrying a laptop around.


All in all, it's a fab bag!  Check out the full range here, there are loads of different designs available, and they also make items for Kindles, iPads, iPhones and more!  My laptop case cost about £30, plus p&p from the U.S., which I feel is very good value!
