Laptop Bags For Women And The Size Of Your Laptop

by Cara on July 30, 2009

As we all know, laptop computers come in many different sizes. I must admit that there are so many different options of netbooks, notebooks, laptops and desktop replacements that you can get really confused! Why am I writing a separate post about laptop sizes?

Because choosing a good laptop bag for women depends first of all on the size of your computer: if your laptop doesn’t fit in the bag, than no matter how stylish and practical it is – it’s still useless!

Of course, the smaller your laptop is, the cuter its laptop bag will be.  Little netbooks with a 10 inch – 12 inch diagonal are very light and easy to carry around. There is a wide assortment of laptop bags for women for this type of laptops. Considering the fact that the computer itself is not heavy, these bags usually have additional options and features  – more compartments, elegant pockets, being at the same time a notebook bag and a ladies purse.

Netbooks and small notebooks are perfect if you need efficiency and a fast connection to the internet from anywhere. But if you want a real powerful computer, you should choose a model with a diagonal above 12’’. 12 – 14 inch laptops are considered the ideal compromise between weight and power. These computers are not very heavy, being still easy to carry around, but providing you at the same time with almost all the benefits of a desktop computer. It’s pure pleasure to browse the wide range of 12, 13 and 14 inch laptop bags for women. On the online market you can find hundreds and thousands of models of all types: laptop sleeves, laptop cases, laptop totes, laptop backpacks, messenger bags, rolling laptop bags and so on.  Different styles are also not a problem: cute laptop bags and cool laptop bags, fashionable laptop bags and trendy laptop bags, stylish laptop bags and funky laptop bags. They can be made from leather (being perfect for a businesswoman who’s wearing mostly classical outfits) or from many other materials you can choose from depending on your purpose: travel, working on field, going to classes, hiking or camping. Do I still have to mention colors? :)

If you need something even more powerful, than you should choose a 15 – 15.4 inch laptop. 15 laptop bags are a little bigger than their little ‘sisters’ described above. Considering the fact that these laptops are heavier, you may decide to use a 15 or 15.4 laptop bag only for the purpose of carrying your laptop, especially if it’s a tote or a sleeve and all the weight will be in your hand. A messenger bag, a backpack or a rolling laptop case with a 15 – 15.4 inches diagonal can provide you much more storage options, being easier to carry around.

Finally, if you want a super powerful desktop replacement, than you can buy a 17 inches laptop. A 17 inch laptop bag is, of course, big. But you can still find many available models: totes (they look more like briefcases, but they’re still elegant and stylish), sleeves and backpacks. These big laptops are the heaviest and you probably will not want to carry them with you everywhere. In case you need to walk a lot carrying a big computer, I would recommend buying a 17 laptop backpack. Backpacks are healthy alternatives to simple bags, keeping your spine straight and your shoulder blades properly aligned. 17 laptop cases and wheeled laptop bags are another good solutions for carrying around a heavy laptop.

Laptop bags for women are a wonderful invention. They are a stylish accessory that reflect your taste and your personality, at the same timing keeping your computer safe and allowing you to carry it anywhere you want.
