Embarrassed that you are reliant on new media for your survival? Hide that shit with a laptop case in disgiuse. These bags will keep everyone around you guessing...Who is that person? Where is their laptop? Why are they so cool? Why are they reading a Catalonian newspaper?
Psha, you say, I am proud to be a doctoral student who spends more that 75% of my waking time hunched in front of this machine. Well then how about a bag that celebrates technology? These bags do just that. Or mock it. Or celebrate it, but ironically. Whatever.
Or of course, you can go glam. There are a variety of sequined options out there, from a classy, monochrome black sequin, to the preppier quilted pastel with sequin accents. These bags say "yeah, I type really fast, and I look frickin' awesome when I do it, and sometimes I have dance parties in my office and you're not invited, because your laptop bag doesn't have sequins."
Now you're probably wondering what I schlep my little Lenovo around in. I'm still waiting for Mountain Hardwear to come out with a Monkey Phur laptop case. Until then, although I will occasionally stuff it into my green pleather over-sized DKNY bag, I usually go old school by putting it in the special laptop pocket of my backpack. Lame, I know. Glitter-and-spandex does not approve. In her opinion, backpacks don't go with sparkly cocktail dresses. Ever. Period. So that makes backpacks out of the question.
