Schools and workplaces may have pivoted to virtual where they can, but that doesn't mean consumers shouldn't keep looking their best, and the [Fossil Tess](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fossil-carraway-watch) Laptop Backpack is perfect for doing just that, offering something simple yet elegant to impress coworkers over Zoom meetings.

The [leather bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-bags) arrives with a brown colorway that adds a vintage touch. While the construction is beautiful, what makes this bag stand out is its practical design, which offers multiple interior pockets including a [padded pocket for a laptop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portland-gear-laptop-sleeve). The bag's two exterior pockets are large enough to create a box shape that enables the bag to stand on its own when not being carried.

Fossil's Tess Laptop arrives with a price tag just under $300.
