This is Day 5 of a 21-Day Salute ™, an attempt to kick start my blog writing and to express my gratitude for living where I do. I first saw these series of posts on The Communicatrix (my very first blog crush) and when I asked, she encouraged me to copy her. Here are 21 days of my favorite products made in Boulder…who knew this was a review blog?
BlogHer 07 was only a week away. It was going to be my first blogging conference. And you know that blogging conferences, especially female-specific ones, are all about what you’re wearing and carrying. I needed a laptop bag that wasn’t ugly and that could fit my huge laptop. What’s a girl to do?
Well, if you’re a Colorado girl, you go to a gear store (any excuse to go to a gear store!), bring your laptop and find the right bag for the job. This little number by Sherpani is the only one that met both my criteria. Two years later, I’m still using it almost every day. It’s been bomber, to say the least.
The buttons are my flare
My Sherpani laptop bag accompanies me bike commuting and traveling. I even wear it when I’m out on an adventure and not carrying my laptop around. The flowers on the inside of the lid, the excess of pockets, the waterproof interior…function and design working together to make a stellar product.
I’ve been seeing more and more women with Sherpani bags in airports all over the country. I always smile and compliment them on their taste. The only thing that could make this bag any better is to have a celebrity name attached to it.
Oh wait…Guy Kawasaki is all over this bitch.
You should have seen his real face when I showed him his button face on my bag at BlogWorld last year.
I have a sneaking suspicion that this won’t be the last Sherpani bag I own. Even though my friend Berly asked me recently if it was a diaper bag. Please. Not yet, my friend, not yet.
Follow them on Twitter and check out their outlet store for sweet deals.
