a cozy evolution

While scanning the holiday boutique at free people, I came across the most adorable invention: laptop cozies! I'd like to have been at the drawing board when a designer thought that one up. It seems a bit silly -after all, cozies are meant to keep teapots warm- but actually, for those of us rushing to class as the snowy season descends, with a laptop stuffed hastily into a shoulder bag amongst paper and books, it is quite a clever invention. My favourite is the emboidered roses cozy in the centre (and yes, they even have a matching ipod case).
