Help me to find a stylish lap top case please

[rookiemater]

For my birthday I have asked DH to buy me a lap top case as the one I have through work is large, heavy and ugly.

Ideally I would like something leather that isn't huge, perhaps in a stylish shade.

Budget wise I guess he would spend around £100 - £150 but if there was something particularly wonderful that was more expensive I could put money towards it as well.

Does anyone have any suggestions,thanks ?

What about this one?

lin and leo

I hated the Lin and Leo baby bag which I had(too bulky) but maybe this one is better. It certainly comes in lovely colours.

Happy Birthday BTW!

How big's your laptop? this is rather old school...

The lin and leo one looks really smart, but it does need to be light, so if your baby bag was bulky kind of puts me off. Thanks rdp I'm not sure about ebay purchases because for something like this I would like to have either had someone say that they had one just like it and its grand, or know the make.
Perardua, thanks thats helped to narrow it down, lap top is small ( sorry haven't measured it) but those are too scarily reminiscent of school for me as I had a satchel that Mum had bought me at great expense and was forced to use right through secondary when everyone had moved onto blue striped duffel bags.

I am loving those satchels PerArdua- I covet a red one!

I really like [http://www.knomobags.com/eshop/knomo_home.asp knomo]] bags. They don't look obviously like lap top bags.

Oh those knomo bags are fab, thats exactly the kind of thing I had in mind. Do you have one ?

I have two One which takes laptop and papers - also comes with a pouch for the cables! The other a slim which is just for the laptop and useful when travelling through airports where I can't take more than one piece of handluggage.

Ah now thats an interesting idea. I wanted a slim light one primarily because I cycle so it needs to fit in the paniers, but do occasionally do work travel so it would be nice for storing papers and stuff as well.

Must measure lap top tomorrow.

CHOOGIRL can I ask does the slim literally just fit the lap top, could I squeeze in cables or not ?

If not am thinking the UNA Lambskin in the sale looks rather snazzy.

The UNA looks really nice. In the slim I can fit my laptop and the smallish plug but not the big power pack type if you know what I mean.

Thanks, think I will get DH to buy the UNA as more expensive then I can treat myself to the slim if its a bit too big for daily use
