Is it a purse or a laptop bag? The Perfect Geek Companion

Do you have a really hard time finding the perfect purse? I do!! Usually, when I find a purse, I end up keeping it until it is falling apart because I really hate looking for a new one. I hate wallets, so I have to find a purse that has the built in wallet and will fit a lot of stuff in it, yet is smaller than a suitcase. Which is a really hard task.

I was watching someone’s review (I can’t find it again, so if anyone knows who did the review, leave me a comment, please) of their shopping trip to TJ Maxx for some BlogHer necessities. She was looking for a bag to carry her laptop around in and found a few of them that looked a lot like purses to me and BAM, it hit me. That is what I need. A laptop bag as my purse. I carry around so many gadgets – iPhone, Video Camera, iPod and sometimes a 2nd bag for my laptop.

I stopped at TJ Max last weekend and found this purse laptop bag.This is the outside. It has 2 smaller pockets for the things you need often like chapstick, comb, pen, hand sanitizer, hair things, etc. I wish it had come in a brownish color, but it was either black or this ugly maroon. And the best part? It was only $20.

This is the inside of one of those outside pockets. Just the perfect size.

And the inside of the main part. It has a lot of little pockets for pens, business cards, etc and a huge zippered part for some essentials that are a tad larger.

And last, but definitely not least….a spot for my laptop. I spend a lot of time driving kids around and waiting for lessons to be done and if I could easily carry my laptop with me, maybe, just maybe I’ll get something done.

I’m really excited about this purse/laptop bag. Perfect for any geek with a lot to carry around. I’ll keep you posted on how well it works out for me.

Tell me about your purse. How do you carry all your gadgets around with you?

  1. I carry a regular purse of medium size, but it weighs a ton…. can't they start making all of our gadgets lighter weight… no room for the laptop , but I use my laptop bag as a purse when I travel… =)

  2. OMG did you see my laptop case at Blogher?? JUST like this one except pink inside!! SEE this is why we are BFF's!

    • pink inside??? Now that would be even better!!!

  3. That’s cool! I prefer something smaller and lighter. I travel a lot so it is necessary to organize my things so that I maximize space and weight. The Go Messenger Bag from Briggs & Riley suits my style, convenience and I love the innovative features! The front outsider pocket can hold business cards, pens and a lot more of my personal items. There are side pockets to hold my MP3 player, PDA or digital camera, etc. My laptop fits in the removable padded computer sleeve which is checkpoint friendly – easy to take out for security screenings at checkpoints. It’s the little functional things about this laptop brief that makes my life so much more organized. It also comes with a “Simple as that” lifetime warranty that even covers airline damage!

  4. geek in pink… I it would be good to get multi purpose bag, fashionable but techy..

  5. its looks like more to a purse for me than a laptop bag.
