Great looking bag! Love the color & finish. My 15" laptop is a snug fit directly into the bag. Can not use the padded sleeve provided for my laptop (could be useful for smaller laptops). The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because I could use a little more room in the bag for other stuff. Right now I can fit my laptop w/charger & wireless mouse, eReader w/charger, iPhone w/charger and my long large wallet, if I organize it well. Small, thin makeup case may also fit in for your travels.
