Hope your mom likes it :)<br /> I like the zebra one - it's hard to say what the material is like, but it's cute! Looks like I need to spend some time on that site, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8369 Fri, 23 May 2008 02:47:08 +0000 Julia 8369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Antje, those wheeled bags are so cool! I love the giraffe print a lot, the zebra one is super too. I wouldn't mind to haul it around in those prints. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8366 Fri, 23 May 2008 02:40:31 +0000 Antje 8366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those! Really like the shape of the first one you linked to. Very pretty shoulder bag.<br /> So I'm looking at the wheeled ones and very much like the second one in the set you linked to (the one with the clasp) in red. I might go for that one if my mom is happy with the choice :-)<br /> I had found this zebra one, but I'm worried about the quality (not leather): <a href="http://www.coolcomputerbags.com/detail.aspx?ID=421" rel="nofollow">http://www.coolcomputerbags.com/detail.aspx?ID=421</a> Fun though, huh? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8362 Fri, 23 May 2008 02:26:03 +0000 marianne 8362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's true! I have to commute on public transportation and hauling the laptop around is no fun. That's why I am looking for the lightest possible bag. Even super-expensive nice bags tend to be heavier than I need. I like that red bag, Antje - the only thing is it's really exposed on the top... I also wonder what the weight is. I admit after this tote conversation I spent waay too much time on ebags and luggageonline. I was kind of looking at this but can't tell if it meets the requirements:<br /> <a href="http://www.luggageonline.com/product.cfm?product_ID=9447" rel="nofollow">http://www.luggageonline.com/p.....ct_ID=9447</a><br /> There are a few wheeled ones there too btw - no zebras, but bright colors:<br /> <a href="http://www.luggageonline.com/productlist.cfm?N=4294966473+4294966740" rel="nofollow">http://www.luggageonline.com/p.....4294966740</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8351 Fri, 23 May 2008 01:42:40 +0000 Antje 8351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Ana, be glad you don't have to! (Cart a heavy laptop around.) I'm actually looking at a wheeled laptop bag right now. My mom wants to give me one for my birthday (which was 4 months ago, but that's how it sometimes is... especially when we live in different countries) so I'm browsing. Unfortunately most of the wheeled ones are pretty boring, just black and stuff. Saw one in zebra, I might bite... Nothing like a little touch of animal print to perk you up in the airport, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8347 Fri, 23 May 2008 01:32:55 +0000 Ana 8347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That IS a cute laptop tote Antje. Makes me wish I had to carry one around! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8344 Fri, 23 May 2008 01:21:38 +0000 Antje 8344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is one that's not quite as cool as the red patent one, but still pretty nice, and it's on sale at Macy's for $79: <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=220032&#038;CategoryID=25548&#038;LinkType=EverGreen" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....=EverGreen</a><br /> It only accomodates small to medium sized laptops, though (up to 15''). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8323 Thu, 22 May 2008 23:12:38 +0000 marianne 8323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I am still drooling over that tote too. The price is steep, but I would probably pay it if it were suitable for a laptop... otherwise it wouldn't make sense.<br /> Mirah, I'll check payless too. Maybe I could find a cheaper version so that I won't be sorry if it breaks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8313 Thu, 22 May 2008 20:55:38 +0000 mirah 8313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>marianne..you are right about the sturdy part..but along with shoes i'm a bag addict.. so i usually buy cheaper totes and rotate them per mood and necessity My current favorite is a transparent bag with yellow and black patent patches which I found for some 20 odd dollars ..of all places at payless! I wouldnt be able to use it on a flight but its great for hauling to work and back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8311 Thu, 22 May 2008 20:44:20 +0000 Antje 8311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That red patent tote is AWESOME. I clicked on it immediately, too, but I'm not ready to spend the dollars. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8304 Thu, 22 May 2008 20:10:08 +0000 marianne 8304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for ideas! Mirah, I haven't tried the sleeve+regular bag yet - I wasn't sure a typical tote would handle the weight of a laptop well (bottom sagging, handles breaking and so on). I'll keep that in mind and try to look for a sturdy tote. Antje, I like your solution... I should check Target or maybe H&#38;M when it opens here.<br /> Inge, those Knomo bags look nice, but not quite what I am looking for. I could maybe handle the price but then I would feel committed to this bag... you know what I mean.<br /> Dixiegirl, I like Tumi quality and had hopes for them, too, but yeah, it's not like that red patent tote! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8274 Thu, 22 May 2008 18:00:07 +0000 Inge 8274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are in a higher price range, but I thought I'd mention them just in case.<br /> <a href="http://www.knomobags.com/eshop/knomo_home.asp?SS=10" rel="nofollow">http://www.knomobags.com/eshop......asp?SS=10</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8267 Thu, 22 May 2008 17:46:28 +0000 Antje 8267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had the same quest - finding a super cool laptop bag (but not for hundreds of dollars.) In the end, I decided it wasn't possible, and bought a fun big bright yellow bag at H&#38;M for $29 last week. I've already used it this week to carry around my laptop (including on the plane), but plan to buy a protectice sleeve eventually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8262 Thu, 22 May 2008 17:40:54 +0000 Dana 8262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianne, Tumi has some cute laptop bags that come in bright colors but they're nothing like what Angie posted about, they're definitely laptop cases. They're also a little pricey but if you watch a local TJ Maxx (if you have one), I find them there occasionally at a great price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8255 Thu, 22 May 2008 17:29:02 +0000 mirah 8255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianne..i know what you mean.I got tired of the black ugly shoulder bags too..and the ones they make for laptops are either ugly or too uncomfortable. I have resorted to buying thick sleeves for the laptops and then using nicer totes as laptop bags. It is safe for the laptop only if your handbag is not too big as compared to the laptop though. You can get neoprene sleeves for all sizes pretty cheaply at <a href="http://www.ebags.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebags.com</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laptop-totes#post-8246 Thu, 22 May 2008 17:04:25 +0000 marianne 8246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the tote bags featured in Angie's post today, especially the red one. I would love to get a similar bag where I could fit a laptop. I think I has to be something intended for a laptop, to have that extra support inside, but a lot of laptop bags are kind of blah. And the leather ones are heavy! Any suggestions? </p>
