    I've purchased an Air as a present which should be arriving fairly soon, and I'm looking to include a sleeve. The presentee is a pretty classy lady - stylewise, I'd say an Escada type of gal. Age for reference: early 30's.

    Obviously a neoprened or nylon article is out and I'm looking for something sleek and stylish. I don't really have a budget in mind, but I'd say anything up to $500 would be definitely OK. Any suggestions?

    I dunno. Most of it's all a bit too masculine, dumpy or otherwise.

    I gave her my previous Valextra Premier (in white - tip: if you're a bloke, do not even be tempted to do white leather luggage unless you're - hmmm - Jude Law for example) and that's what she currently uses to carry her battered Macbook Pro + bits. When I first handed over the case she cuddled it [​IMG] so it's a fair bet she likes this sort of thing.

    Stylistically, if you could aim for that kind of vibe it'd be good.
