In the quest for a laptop bag, leave no stone unturned
Finding a good bag to tote both your laptop and everyday essentials can be quite a task--you either end up hauling your goods in a student-esque backpack, or spending too much on a bag that might not even protect your computer (and one must always protect their hardware). Enter Alex Grant Bags, a company that makes "luxury laptop bags and cases" that value both form and function. One StyleChronicles reader noted, "The cool thing about it, function-wise, is that it's got a mini-case that slips inside a bigger tote, so I can either bring the whole big bag if I have a lot of stuff to carry around, or just pull out the little case on its own. Kind of like three bags in one." The special removable case is available on several models, including a more streamlined tote called the "Dillon," the "Billie," as well as the "Skye." You can find AGB laptop cases at Fred Segal in Los Angeles, as well as Jacqueline Jarrot. In New York City, they're available at Big Bag; you can also buy Alex Grant Bags at www.agbstore.com.
