DH just got a 15in macbook through work and we are having a hard time finding a bag that both of us like. I think we should just get a neoprene sleeve and then can pick out our own bag, as I want something pink and girly, which he is obviously vetoing. Does anyone here have any recs for nice laptop bags? Something nicer than plain black, but still unisex? It needs a shoulder strap and should have room for accessories (cord, mouse, etc) and some room for other things (room to use as a carry-on when flying, place for cell phone, keys, few diapers, journals, etc.) but we don't want a piece of luggage! We'd love to find something under $100 if possible. I suggested tibuk2, but DH didn't like those. We have looked at B&M Target, Staples, etc but haven't really found what we are looking for yet. I am not sure if it will be possible to find something we both like, but we are trying. Any ideas>

I just found the coolest laptop sleeves here and am trying to resist: etsy - janineking (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=78675&section_id=5031628) Maybe good for you, but not so sure about your DH!

ETA: this is the sort of thing DH has, but for a pc: http://www.mec.ca/Products/product_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=253437430 2699713&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524442621950 Mine is not quite so cool :( It's one of the things on my list once I'm employed!
