Design Porn: Glorious Gadget Covers

If you, like me, got a Kindle for Christmas then you, like me, may have yet to leave the house with it because you haven't got a sturdy cover. (You may also have performed an about-turn from 'oh no, I don't want one of those' to 'look how many FREE BOOKS you can get on it!' as you speed-read Pride and Prejudice over a cup of tea.) Most of the covers you can get for Kindles and other electronic gadgetry are so joylessly practical that I've had a search for some prettier ones. They'll keep your shiny things safe without being boringly drab.

Kindle cover from ElizabethDavidDesign, £29.94


This Kindle cover from ElizabethDavidDesign folds back like a paperback, albeit a cuddly cushioned one.

Marvel Comics laptop case from The2SistersShoppe, £26.61
KAPOW! Comic book geekery ahoy! This laptop case is lovingly made by The2SistersShoppe.

Kindle cover from dobeeubags, £28.61

Grown-up books don't need a grown-up cover. Or maybe you're secretly reading Sluttery fave I Want My Hat Back? This Kindle cover is from dobeeubags.


iPad cover from bertiescloset, £17.96


I got my netbook cover from bertie's closet so can vouch for what good quality they are. Two years later and mine is still good as new. This iPad cover comes in a Parisian style print.

  1. I Want My Hat Back was probably the best book I read last year.
