Nanda Lapsac - laptop bag for girls...Thoughts?

[Nicolecat]

So, I've been looking for a great carryall...that would hold my macbook as well.

I stumbled upon this bag, and I love the way it looks.
I can't find any reviews on it what-so-ever...and just wondered as to what some other mac-heads thought about it.

So, please tell me what you think...I'm so itching to buy this one.

edit: here's where you can find it.
Thanks.

Ok I'm male so obviously I havent had much experience with bags ladies would use etc.
I would say the bag is quite clever really, it doesn't really look like a laptop bag so would help in 'hiding' that you have one with you. Its also got that oversize bag look going on that seems to be fashionable at the minute.

As long as it has decent padding and you like the design I dont see how it can be any worse than a normal one to be honest.

Yeah...I was looking for something that wouldn't scream laptop bag...I'm going to be flying to visit family next month, and wanted something simple. ...and easy to manuever through security, the laptop is a zipper away...but you can position it against your body to prevent pickpockets. (I hate crowds)
Thank you for the feedback.

Awesome!...I figured someone with a girlfriend would like it.

Or maybe another girl?

Lol...yeah that too.
but I have noticed a slight skew in male to female ratio.

It seems to me that the bags you're considering are handbags, i.e., to be carried by hand (as opposed to over the shoulder). It's difficult to tell from the photo, but those straps don't look very long to me.

A 13" MBP weighs about 4.5 lbs. Add to this the weight of everything else you want to have with you -- cell, water bottle, wallet, keys, etc. Seems to me that this would be a lot of weight to lug around all day by hand. I've seen the kinds of things my wife sometimes wants to bring along, and she's pretty practical. But it adds up.

Of course, if this bag can be thrown over the shoulder....

Yeah, my original post was simply to note my reporting a spam post. Then I got to thinking about this product. By the time I edited my comment to add my thoughts on the product in question, an mod had swooped in an deleted the spam.

Ah, how very confusing to the naked eye Thanks for clearing it all up

Any comments from the people who got the bag? I personally don't like throwing something with short straps over my shoulder (especially a bulky bag), feels uncomfortable. But it is a very cute bag.
