Get professional chic with CareerBags!

As much as we hate to admit it, appearances matter. Looking good can help you feel good, and it also gives a better impression of yourself to others. When going to job interviews, important company presentations, or just a regular office meeting, it helps to give yourself confidence and to show respect for your colleagues by having a clean, brisk, appearance. Don't get me wrong though, that doesn't mean you can only wear black and be boring! More and more now, companies are allowing employees more freedom of expression with their attire and accessories. Showing a little originality, while still maintaining an intelligent air, will make you stand out and be remembered.

Sites like CareerBags.com are great resources to find accessories that are chic and have great value. The site is easy to use, has efficient shipping (I received my order in 2 days!), and has a huge range of fashionable items. Recently I received a press alert about a big sale at CareerBags, so if you are looking for a new office or school bag, then you should definitely check this sale out!



This bright fuchsia bag is perhaps the closest you'll get to a Chanel laptop bag (and that won't cost you a kidney).



Casauri travel satchel, $48

Cute, friendly, and sleek, this little travel pouch will hold all your travel necessities, is water resistant, and features a multitude of pockets to hold the important things, like that cute local's number.




As a laptop bag, this bag is perfect for the hallowed halls of the school campus. Rather than go for boring black, gray, or brown, this bag boasts a whimsical flowery design full of fun! On the practical side, thick straps offer comfort for the shoulders, while a water resistant exterior provides durability.



Laurex laptop sleeves, left to right: Red Blossom ($39.99) and Silver Petal ($44.99)

Finally, there are these cute laptop sleeves from Laurex! Feminine, colorful, and sleek, these sleeves are great protectors and so pretty that you'll find yourself using any excuse to whip out your laptop and look professional!

The second and third are sooo lovely :) I have a colourful striped laptop bag that I use either for my laptop, or just a document wallet!

Cute picks! That first bag combines 2 of my loves--hot pink and Chanel-style quilting. Mmm...

I know what you mean - it's the typical black laptop cases I kept seeing that first prompted me to carry my computer in a bright canvas bag. But the ones you posted are so much better. I need those laptop sleeves! (yes, all of them).

Oh, and I've just added you to my blogroll. I find myself coming back here - love your posts! :)

I wish someone made cute camera bags. I've been saying it for years. If a designer could come up with a functional but not obvious camera bag--holy money! Laptops get all the cute cases and if anything I'd also want people to know that it's not a laptop.

I do adore those laptop sleeves! I'm on the market for a new laptop holder. I keep using regular tote bags because I hate the "tech guy" nylon bags that they peddle as computer bags. Still looking for something good.

@Modelizer: That's such a good idea! My camera bag is totally ugg and the only cute ones I've seen are the Hello Kitty cases haha.

@Dream Sequins: I really recommend you check out this site, they have a great range of options. At first it seems expensive, but it's totally worth it, just like a great bag.
