Functionally chic womens laptop bags are hard to come by. One of my biggest complaints, and Ive heard this from my friends too, is finding a womens laptop bag thats both feminine and functional. Most business women dont want to carry around a pink briefcase with flowers on it, or lug around a bag meant for a 6ft tall man. And why does it seem that most womens laptop cases dont have shoulder support? Men have so many cool options; they can go, techy or sophisticated, casual or urban. All they have to do is walk into a store and find a plethora of laptop bags to choose from.
I have gone on a search and found some pretty good options. My favorite is the bag by Hayden Harnett. Its not stiff like a lot of the laptop bags for women that Ive seen, and it has a long adjustable shoulder strap.
MARC BY MARC JACOBS Lovely Behati Tote -$458
This supple leather tote is punctuated by bold, logo-etched rivets and soft pleating detail. Menswear-inspired pinstriped cotton twill lines the interior but still looks feminine. The top zip closure keeps your laptop and papers secure.
Celine Springbok Large Tote - $1,750
Yes, its more than a bit spendy for a briefcase, but this bag screams luxury. Calf hair with smooth leather trim and an adjustable and removable flat leather shoulder strap with buckles, along with an interior leather-trimmed cell phone pocket, patch pocket, and zipped pocket are the perfect combination of opulence and function.
Hayden-Harnett Catalina Slouchy Laptop Brief - $473
Functional for an every-day workbag but not lacking in style. Adjust the strap to wear it across your body, or carry it by its padded handles. With a zippered top, and padded compartment, it keeps your stuff safe while sporting exterior slit and turnlock closure pockets for quick access.
Penelope Business Tote - $199
Who wouldve thought a business/laptop tote could be so stylish and so practical? Loaded with interior pockets, a plush notebook computer compartment, and sturdy brass hardware, the Penelope tote is ready for the most rigorous Road Warrior treatment. But, thanks to its graceful dome and the embossed crocodile pattern on its soft leather exterior, only you will know its more than a chic handbag.
The Ansley Bag -$299
The Ansley Bag in Fawn combines canvas and leather for a stylish and practical addition to your bag collection (except this one pulls double duty as a laptop bag). With a coordinating laptop sleeve that holds a 15 ½" laptop, the Ansley bag is scaled to hold other necessities such as your wallet, keys and cell phone, you wont want to leave home without it.
Diane Von Furstenberg Lizard on the Go Flap Brief - $120
A stylish womens laptop bag doesnt have to cost a bundle. Snug this DVF bag with fully padded laptop compartment and top zip closure (hurry, it wont last long!). The bag also includes lots of business accessory compartments for all of your "stuff".
Mango Tango Faux Croc Laptop Bag in brown - $23.99
This bags color will accompany any wardrobe nicely. An extremely functional bag with plenty of room to store a laptop and several of its larger accessories. A stylish bag that will not break the bank. Its cheap and chic, you cant beat that! Get one before theyre gone.
I hope these options will help alleviate the challenge of trying to search for a laptop bag which has a perfect combination of functionality and femininity.
