New, Improved Persida Lapsac by Nanda Home
January 7th, 2008
We know we’ve featured the Lapsac before, Nanda Home redesigned our favorite lifesaving tote to be better, bigger, and more useful! This time around you can store all sizes of laptops in both the zip compartment and the body of the tote and it is now lined to protect the gorgeous bright white canvas.
You’ve just spent an hour and 45 minutes in the security line at the airport listening to endless announcements regarding little soaps and tiny lotions in small plastic bags, and a teenage girl behind you has broken up, made up, and finally broken up again with her boyfriend via cellphone.
You watch everyone around you stretching, pulling and digging around in their bags to pull out their laptop, find their ID and tickets, and throw their water away. You however, are calm and collected.
You, well YOU have your LapSac at your side. Your laptop and your ticket are neatly stowed in the front pocket, one zip away, and the rest of your in-flight entertainment, books, dvds, magazines are in the main pocket.
But wait…the only people as calm as you, are all business. You can spot them a mile away with their calfskin briefcases that have about fifty zippers, each with such highly specified purposes that nothing you own or need actually fits in them.
Ha Ha. That’s NOT you. You have your LapSac. As stylish as any tote or purse you’ll find on Robertson Ave or in SoHo, but as functional as any gruesome “luggage piece” can get!
This sturdy cotton tote is a creamy white with an intricate pink lace pattern screened on the front panel. LapSac comes from one of our new favorite companies, Nanda Home. Nanda is an innovative design team out of Michigan who develop products that just help make your life easier…while allowing you to look good doing it. The Delight.com mantra to be sure.
Transform this scenario to business meetings, road trips, or just getting to and from the office, and you’ll see what we mean. The LapSac is a delightful little gem of a tote.
Because everyone looks sexier when they’re not dropping their laptop.
Check out what happy customers are saying about the LapSac:
"I just got my new lapsak a couple days ago, and I just wanted to tell you how GREAT it is!! The colors are gorgeous, and you can just tell it’s well made and is gonna last. Finally I have a truly functional laptop bag that is also pretty!" CATHY
"This bag is perfect for the airport because now, I am only carrying one bag on the plane instead of 3. I would take one big bag and stuff my purse in it as well as carry a more traditional laptop bag where I put my wallet. This made for alot of difficulty and juggling when I finally got to baggage claim to get my checked bag.
I keep all of the cords and plugs in a smaller bag on the inside. And it has lots of pockets on the interior (including one just for my iPhone.)
I love it. I love it. I love it. I can’t say enough about it. 
It’s comfortable. Easy to carry. Well constructed. Every girl who has a laptop (or even if she doesn’t) and want something cool to carry it in, needs this bag" JONELLE

How come this page says the total size is 19″X13.8″X9.5″, but the product’s page says 16″ x 11.25″X 4″ ?

soo cute!!! is the strap padded?
January 8th, 2008 at 5:25 am
This looks very cute. I too noticed the size discrepancy, which makes it hard to see if I can fit my lap top in the front pocket. Also, the bag looks cream/pink, but the description says pale green.
January 8th, 2008 at 6:41 am
Hi guys,
The bag is in fact creme with a pink/fuschia lace pattern. Here are the specs for the sizing:
The LapSac has an innovative padded zipper front panel pocket for your laptop; Tote Size: 16″ x 11.25″; 4 inner pockets, both laptop pocket and large compartment lined.
Pouch fits laptops up to 12.78″x9.1″x1.08″ (MacBooks fit perf).
…if your computer is too large for the front pouch, you can just slide it in the larger compartment, and use the front pouch for cords and batteries etc.

Since the bag is so lightly colored, is it machine washable?
January 9th, 2008 at 10:26 am
Lisa,
Yes, the Lapsac is machine washable!

I purchased your other tote and keep getting people asking about it. I actually like this one better
January 14th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Do you offer the other colors available directly thru nandahome? Ex. brown or fuschia?
Thank you

The bag looks great but I have two questions:
1) Are the handles padded? (I know someone already asked this but I don’t see a response.)
2) How long is the handle drop?
Thanks!
January 24th, 2008 at 9:14 am
Carrie and Pintucked,
Unfortunately, we are just offering this color at the moment. The handles are double-layered canvas, but not padded and they measure 18.5″.

This is such a cute bag! It just makes me sad because I have a mammoth of a laptop and it won’t fit. So so sad. Please make a bigger one!
January 25th, 2008 at 6:13 am
Melissa,
You can easily reverse the use of the Lapsak if you have a larger laptop…i.e. use the front pocket to slide in cords, your wallet, etc and the large middle area for your laptop, magazine and books.
Our product tester Lynne does just that (her laptop is mammoth), and she’s been real happy with her Lapsac!

[…] Seriously though, if you take your laptop anywhere other than your house, and are tired of lugging a purse AND and bulky laptop bag, then the Lapsac is a must-have. But don’t let us tell you - read the blog reviews and our customer comments and decide for your self. […]

I love this! I got it a week ago and have since fallen in love with it. It’s the best laptop/purse ever.. and it’s so pretty. I’m so happy you brought this bag to us.
January 27th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
What is mammoth? I have a 17″ laptop & I love the look of this bag/purse and would like to buy one if it would fit my laptop. Any chance you’ll be selling the brown one?
January 28th, 2008 at 8:42 am
Sweetpea,
Your 17″ laptop will not fit in the front pocket, but will fit in the main compartment of the Lapsac. Unfortunately, the brown Persida bag will not be available until the late Spring or Summer of this year.
Best,

Aw, too bad the front pocket isn’t big enough to fit a MacBook Pro! I love the front pocket concept; I hope Nanda makes a larger bag to fit this popular laptop!
February 3rd, 2008 at 5:39 pm
This is great…i have a macbook pro, but still, i love the design. maybe they’ll make a bigger size! it’s a great idea.
February 9th, 2008 at 8:01 am
My laptop doesn’t fit in the front pocket either, but I love the bag so much I just put my laptop in the main pocket and my cords, etc. in the front and I still have plenty of room in the main pocket for documents and large note pads.
February 12th, 2008 at 11:49 am
Love the bag! It’s a great size- I use it as my regular work/ commuting bag. Idon’t schlep my laptop around, but I lovethat I could use it for that too. I get a lot of nice comments from strangers about it. I was hesitant to get this bag because of the light color (and my tendency to ruin things that are cream colored!), but I finally caved since it’s machine washable. I’m so glad I got it!
My only complaint is that it has a weird odor similar to nail polish remover. I’ve only had it for a week though so hopefully it’ll go away.
February 13th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
Does the inside compartment have pockets for cellphone, etc.?
February 13th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
Min,
This inside has a large zippered pocket, and then three open pockets for PDA’s, phones, keys etc.
The pockets hold a ton!
February 13th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
sold out?? tell me you’re getting more!
February 15th, 2008 at 10:35 pm
OMG I love this bag! I was so excited when it showed up on my front door today. It’s so roomy and fit all my junk + my macbook perfectly! Hooooray!
February 22nd, 2008 at 12:02 pm
I just got mine yesterday and I absolutely love everything about it!
And you guys definitelly know how to treat a customer: timely response & delivery, wraping, little Delight post-notes… Thank you. I’ll be back for more shopping!
February 26th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
can you tell me where this bag is made?
March 8th, 2008 at 1:22 pm
Would a widescreen 17″ Dell Vostro fit into the main compartment?
March 11th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
hey
i was just wondering is there any padding to protect the laptops at all ? Its very pretty.
March 16th, 2008 at 8:38 pm
Purhcased it and LOVED it!
I brought it to work and all of my co-workers loved it too!! (Two of them already bought it!)
Super stylish and useful!
March 25th, 2008 at 8:22 am
Just wondering: How late is late-spring for the possible new colors? As a teacher, I could really use a bag like this, but truly can’t imagine keeping that white bag very white. Any news on when other colors might be available?!
March 29th, 2008 at 9:56 pm
I have a really quick question. I am debating whether or not to get this bag and the dimensions say:
- Pouch fits laptops up to 12.78″x9.1″x1.08″ (MacBooks fit perf)
and I have a 15″ Macbook Pro, but in the picture there is a MacBook Pro…I’m just a little confused about the laptop pouch dimensions, I just need some help figuring out if my 15″ macbook pro will fit before I order it
if anybody can help answer this, that would be great
Thanks!

Best.bag.EVER!
My 15″ MBPro fits in the side pocket. There isn’t alot of room to spare, but it zips nicely. There is padding but it isn’t as thick as a traditional laptop bag. You will need to be careful of bumps to the bag. I am anyway because I love my Mac so much I don’t want any harm to come to it!
This bag is perfect for the airport because now, I am only carrying one bag on the plane instead of 3. I would take one big bag and stuff my purse in it as well as carry a more traditional laptop bag where I put my wallet. This made for alot of difficulty and juggling when I finally got to baggage claim to get my checked bag.
I keep all of the cords and plugs in a smaller bag on the inside. And it has lots of pockets on the interior (including one just for my iPhone.)

Jonelle!
What nice words!! We love to hear that you’re loving your Lapsac! I’ve taken mine on several business trips, and the poor thing gets lugged around daily…it’s truly been a lifesaver (especially when traveling) because I can load it up with essentials and breeze through security with just one classy bag on my shoulder.

Corinthia - no word on new colors yet, but I PROMISE YOU Delight will be the first to have them in stock…make sure you sign up for our newsletter so you’re the first to know about their arrival.
Jan - at present the Lapsacs only accommodate a 15″ laptop.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:07 pm
I just got this bag today and it’s super cute. Its much more durable than I expected, and way larger too. This is a massive bag, but my Sony laptop fits nicely, and the pockets are fab!
May 1st, 2008 at 7:13 am
Would a widescreen 15,4″ Dell Inspiron 6400 fit into the main compartment?
I just need some help figuring out if my Dell will fit before I order it.
Very Thanks.
May 15th, 2008 at 9:39 am
noooo! sold out??
I’ve had my eye on this… will more be coming in any time soon?
June 7th, 2008 at 9:46 am
I’ve been using mine for the last month and it’s awesome! I love how my mac fits in it and I get loads of compliments!
June 21st, 2008 at 4:22 am
Hi . I just bought this bag for nursing school in the fall and my Dell 1525 (15.4 inches) fits like a glove in the front pocket. I thought people would want to know. I love thsi bag!
August 27th, 2008 at 10:38 am
Love the bag, but zipper tab broke after two weeks.

I would love to get this for my friend! She needs a new laptop bag and it is so stylish. Just like her!

I’d love to have this for my friend…she is in desperate need (WeCovet sent me!)
November 16th, 2008 at 3:39 pm
I just upgraded to the new MacBook that’s 13.3 in. Will this fit in the front pocket. I keep reading reviews that say pouch fits laptops up to 12.78″x9.1″x1.08″ (MacBooks fit perf)?
November 18th, 2008 at 7:02 pm
I just went back to you sight to purchase this purse and you are sold out. Will you be getting any more anytime soon?
November 21st, 2008 at 8:30 pm
Got my bag in this evening. Pleasantly surprised that it arrived so quickly - ordered it at the beginning of the week! I loved the personal touches in the packaging of it. Love the bag and can’t wait to use it! This is my first time using delight.com, and I’m impressed =)
