Probably not, but it is pretty cool, and dare I say- functional? Karl Lagerfeld, head designer for Chanel, debuted this clever take on a woman’s briefcase to accompany his power suit theme that hit runways in Paris this week. Featuring a dedicated compartment for just about everything (including a Chanel purse), this clear acryllic case isn’t likely to appear on the market anytime soon.

No frequent business traveler would be caught dead without the right business luggage. The right bag can make the trip a truly productive and enjoyable experience. (minus the hassle of airport security and the airlines) Let’s look at the options for the corporate road warrior as they are very different than the typical vacation traveler.
The Briefcase
The briefcase is slowly dying as the standard business travel accessory, but some tried and true travelers still carry them. If you do not carry a laptop, or have switched to a netbook for your computing needs, a briefcase may be the way to go. Manufacturers like Samsonite and Kenneth Cole still carry a nice selection of briefcases with modern style and functionality.
The Laptop Bag
For those of you with a laptop, your choices are many. To just protect your laptop, you can use a laptop sleeve or a small laptop bag. The newest trend is laptop messenger bags which can be thrown over the shoulder for easy carry through the airport. They can be had in leather or various other fabrics in a wide variety of colors.
If you want to eliminate checking bags, then a wheeled overnight laptop bag is the ticket for you. These bags have ample room for your laptop and 1 - 3 days worth of clothing. Make sure to check carry-on sizes before shopping for this style of bag.
No matter what type of business luggage you select for your next trip, you can’t go wrong with the broad selection and top notch customer service available at LuggageOnline.com

This Knomo laptop bag is perfect for my travels to and from graduate school. I don’t carry more than 2 books at a time, a notebook, my laptop and my agenda and they all fit perfectly into my stylish, functional Knomo bag. It’s by far my favorite school bag that I have ever carried! I will even carry it to work occasionally.
This Knomo quilted laptop bag is perfect for grad school students or the everyday business woman who wants a fun but functional bag. It comes in many great colors too! The Una tote is more of a casual bag, but it can still be professional as well. It is perfect for that college graduate who is just starting out their career, or for the woman that wants an everyday business tote with the option of carrying a laptop. Without all your items in the bag, it’s pretty lightweight, which I know is important to a lot of women.
My favorite feature is the organization on the inside. The lining is bright pink so you can find everything easily. Also there are two zip pockets which help you hide things you don’t want noticeable. There are other fitted pockets, for items like pens, pencils, calculators, sticky-note pads, a small notebook for assignments, your to-do-list, keys, etc.
The only drawback that I feel this bag has is [Read more →]
