Thomas Paul’s take on the traditional laptop bag is charming, sure to set your heart a-flutter. I love the bright yellow print, featuring two sweet love birds perched on a branch. The bag closes with two sturdy zippers, and has plenty of room for your laptop, notebooks, and papers… perfect!

Perhaps you’d prefer something subtle, classic, elegant. This bag is the perfect solution — spare, simple, chic, but completely upper crust. The brown also makes it neutral enough to carry with another bag, perhaps your favorite print handbag or tote?

Very clever! Disguising your laptop as a beat-up padded mailer, so no-one will give it a second glance, and it will look right at home in that stack of papers and notebooks you keep in the passenger seat of you car. I like this one not only because it’s unique, but also because it’s large enough to hold my gigantic 17” laptop — not many bags do!

Hooray! Another laptop bag that’s large enough to hold my huge 17” laptop… and with style! I love the Miss Marc character (she already graces one of my favorite coin purses), and she looks right at home, frowning on this denim bag. The double-zip at the top and hardware are a shiny gold, which contrasts nicely with the print…
