User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Nice bag
Overall I am very pleased with the bag. My computer is very well protected and there is room for all my paperwork as well. It’s well made and looks sturdy.
An improvement would be a bigger outside pocket for keys and such, but it does have an attached zippered pouch so you don’t have to dig around for small items that could get lost in the bottom. Also, the suede is hard to clean and I know that I’m going to take this bag where it has to sit on the floor. Leather might have been a better choice for me – but I wanted pink! I’m happy that it supports the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.
5 Stars Pretty in Pink!
I absolutely love this bag! I first saw it in SkyMall magazine, and I’m so glad I came to Amazon for a more reasonable price. Pink suede is a new one for me, and everyone who eyes my roomy, well-padded laptop bag give me compliments on how beautiful it is. I use this bag proudly and would recommend it to the stylish, savvy woman on the go. The straps are long and durable, and there are enough compartments inside to hold all of my essentials. This was definitely worth the purchase.
5 Stars Wonderful bag!
I tried several bags for my laptop and this is the ‘cream of the crop’ Lots of room for everything in a sharp bag!
5 Stars Wonderful Notebook Case …. for the right girl
My wife (who manages a number of mammography centers) wanted a new notebook computer for Christmas (she got a 15″ Dell Latitude). Figuring she would need a bag to hold her notebook and accessories, and knowing she liked pink because of her job and the symbolism with [...] cancer, I went searchin on Amazon for a pink notebook bag and found this one. It seems fabulously well-constructed and the suede is of great quality. The laptop space is perfect for this size notebook, and there is plenty of storage for accessories, as well as business papers, cell phones, makeup and the like.
She liked the notebook, but she LOVED the bag. And the fact it’s purchase helps support the Susan G. Komen foundation meant even more to her. Highly recommended for the right person.

About Mio
The story of Mio began in 1999 when it was created by entrepreneur and mother of three, Liz Dickinson. Like many of us, Liz balances family and career, leaving little time for fitness. After several unsuccessful attempts to achieve her fitness goals and shed the pregnancy weight-gain of her third child, Liz turned to a personal trainer for advice. While working with a trainer, Liz realized the key to getting in shape and staying in shape is to practice smart eating habits, monitoring calorie intake, and using a heart rate monitor to ensure that she exercises at the right level. Liz realized there wasn’t a product available on the market that would easily help her follow her trainer’s advice.
Liz didn’t have time to read labels and carry a calorie journal in her purse, nor did she have much patience for the uncomfortable chest strap she had to wear to get her heart rate. She knew there had to be a better way, so Liz used her technology and marketing savvy to create Mio, the world’s first heart rate monitor to work without a chest strap. And, it didn’t stop with just heart rate, as Mio also has a patented calorie management system that offers a straightforward approach to managing your diet. With the help of Mio and a balanced diet, Liz was able to shed those unwanted pounds and gain the benefits that come with improved fitness: more energy, more vitality, and less stress, and help many others do the same with the creation of Mio’s products.
