Top Women's Laptop Bag Designers

Gone are the days when your only laptop carrying choices were either boxy black laptop bags or even boxier black laptop bags. Today's growing range of designer laptop bags means that we ladies can carry our notebooks in style, reflective of our unique personalities and tastes. Women's laptop bags also make great gifts (you can't have too many bags).

After searching through several sites that sell laptop bags, I found that a couple of brands kept reappearing in the "best selling" and "top rated" women's laptop bag lists; here are 5 brands that offer a great selection of both functional and stylish women's laptop bags. For a showcase of specific women's laptop bags, see this gallery of stylish laptop bags.

McKlein produces laptop cases, briefcases, wheeled cases, backpacks, messengers, and checkpoint-friendly cases for professionals of both genders. They also have a special line of laptop cases designed for women, including a unique detachable-wheeled briefcase that would be great for travel. It's nice that their cases look like quality, professional women's totes and briefcases first and foremost. It's bad for your wallet that they come in so many colors that you may have to buy more than one.
