We can't resist a cry of distress on our forum, and when Gee asked for pretty 17" laptop bags, we swung into action. It's a topic close to my heart as my MacBook doesn't fit into many of the sexy bags we see around here.
Thanks in part to fellow forum user Beth (the Shopping Princess), we have five of the best elegant laptop bags for girls who don't like to compromise on style or screen size.
Melissa Beth Designs' Sweet Seventeen range has a series of richly coloured laptop bags (including the pink and blue pictured above) that incorporate plenty of protective padding into an elegant, feminine design. Teflon-coated with a satin embroidered lining there's plenty of room for a slim notebook and essential peripherals. I have my eye on the Pear Green myself.
We can see why Beth might be taken with the floral explosion on her beloved Janine King laptop bags. This $49 bag is generous on space and has a sensible waterproof lining and adjustable strap for function as well as form. There are even matching mobile phone cases for fully co-ordinated technology.
Amazon offered two elegant contenders. The first comes in the form of the Mobile Edge Milano black tote laptop-bag-in-disguise with its handbag good looks and hint of luxury in the red lining. Love the handbag look but what something a little funkier? Try the Mango Tango Canvas Olive Stripe Laptop Bag.
And both because Kolobags does a nice range of 16-17" bags and because I have a Mac fixation, the last in today's lineup is a Gyms Pacific Powerbook Sleeve specifically designed for the sexiest computers on the market (that's the Apple ones, oh yes). I admit it's a little too pink for me, but I'm pretty sure a lot of our readers would say there's no such thing... As soon as I can get past the name "Kolobags" (the first half of which means something it definitely doesn't want to in Greek), I'll be trawling it for my own perfect bag.
Please keep your suggestions coming on our forums, ladies... we're keen to have more of what you want, you just need to tell us what that is.

Haha! Thanks very much! I'm going to bookmark this page and then spend ages picking one now :D
These are great! A very stylish bag for my laptop!
I bought Ultimate Ballistic 3,150-Denier Nylon rolling carriers and bags from Planetonline.com for just $69. 95. Whenever I need travel, they are spacious enough space for me to carry all that I need. This is an experience that I would want share with all.
These are all very nice bags, however most of them are plastic/material (which does not age gracefully) and in my experience they just seem to fall apart easily, I opted for a leather briefcase for my laptop from MaxwellScott the Paolo 3 section leather bag I have had it for about a month now and my laptop still looks as good as new.
