Lexie Barnes Helps You Say Hello to Spring

GeekSugar — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 15:10:15 PDT

I've long liked Lexie Barnes's bright, fun laptop bags and sleeves - the prints are feminine without being too twee.

This year's prints are also pretty freakin' adorable, and seeing them now, at the beginning of Spring, makes me want one even more. Her laptop sleeves in particular are totally what I need to gallivant through the season, and the best part is that they're all on sale. Yep, each sleeve, depending on size, is only $15 to 20!

The Lexie Barnes Laptop Case in Bali Hai

GeekSugar — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 03:00:20 PDT

For those of you who are still searching for a stylish yet durable laptop bag, this tote may be for you. Lexie Barnes has just introduced this hip and trendy Echo laptop case as part of her women's bags and accessories line.

What I really like about this case is the fact that it looks like it's fabric, yet the exterior is totally water resistant. The inside comes nice and padded to protect your laptop and includes a pink satiny smooth nylon lining.

I found this bag to be very lightweight and liked the fact that the strap was padded and adjustable. The Echo case is available in three sizes to fit MacBooks and MacBook Pros measuring 13, 15, and 17 inches and includes a front pocket and slim rear pocket for things like magazines or your power cord.

This style costs $76. Even though it's not nearly big enough for me to carry all my gadgets in, I still think its a hip bag for tech savvy minimalists.

Get in Gear: Lexie Barnes Mat Bag

FitSugar — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 15:45:00 PDT

Since I go to the yoga studio a few time a week, I need a durable bag to hold my mat. It also has to be comfortable and adorable. Check out this one from Lexie Barnes. It's called the Mariposa Bag.

It's lightweight and can fit a standard mat and cotton rug, or even my huge Manduka mat easily. It even has extra space for a towel, my workout clothes, deodorant, some LARABARS, or whatever else I need.

I love that it has two exterior pockets on both ends of the bag for little stuff like my cellphone, keys, or a pack of tissues. On the inside, there are two mesh zippered compartments, so whatever you store in there can be easily seen.

The inside and outside of the bag is made of smooth nylon. That means it's easy to clean, breathable, and water-resistant (perfect for walking or riding my bike to the studio). The padded shoulder strap matches the print of the bag, and is comfy and adjustable. Order it for $80 from lexiebarnes.com in 4 unique prints (from top to bottom): Bali Hai, Dutch Treat, Baja, and Viona.
