Hi .. does anyone have the perfect one for their laptop ??
one that will safely protect the laptop as it gets lugged around everyday .

thinking of getting one as a gift for the coming school year for a very very good friend...
(I am thinking black but am open to all suggestions !!!!!)

thanks.
 
i thought of that before I posted... but since its for a friend.. i thought
you guys might have some general choices ...

i think the laptop size is about 17in (or a bit bigger)??
2 handles ...
no backpack style ...maybe tote style ??

no sure what other info to add... you gals / guys here have all the info ...
that why i love it here.

There is only one laptop bag style I have found that fits a 17" laptop, it's the Varyk nylon business laptop bag with double zippers along the top for the laptop section and other pockets, front zipper and back one with a shoulder strap. Most Coach bags don't tend to be designed around the larger laptop sizes.
 
Actually I bought my Gigi with the intention of using it to carry my laptop and other items around when traveling. But I have found that it gets too heavy after just one trip.
 
I have the Penelope Op Art Travel Satchel, which I use as a messenger bag. I am a school teacher, so this bag fits all of my papers and books wonderfully. Plus, it has a couple of other pockets where you can stash smaller items. I think it is extremely functional, because you can use it for work and/or travel.
 
a madison magazine tote would fit my laptop, but i don't think a purse offers that much protection (i use my bags to house my laptop when i travel or need to transport it, but i don't think they are all that protected, just out of my hands which is all i'm looking for)...i know coach does make laptop covers (i think they are like $40 at the outlet), maybe you could get her one of those?
 
Did you see baglady39 thread about her new Heritage briefcase. I have it black and it is Fab and very roomy. It brings the Legacy Strip Laptop cover as part of the briefcase.
 
I have a Signature Stripe Baby Bag that I use for my ALMOST 17" widescreen laptop. Snug fit aside, the inside pockets are perfect for holding my adapter, mouse, etc.
