Backpacks for Spring

Friday, April 23, 2010

College students rejoice!  Backpacks are back.  These aren't the tiny backpacks of the 90's but full-on actual backpacks.  We still aren't quite sure about this trend.  We've always been a little leery about carrying our cash in a bag on our backs for whoever to take (call us paranoid).  Plus it seems a little overboard...do we really need a giant bag for all of our stuff?  We aren't treking across the Sahara, we are going to the grocery store.  That being said, Rachel Bilson looks pretty darn cute with her boho-chic bag at Coachella music festival.

If you do opt to jump on board this this trend, keep it edgy, not school girl.  Please don't break out your old Jansport.  Go California casual like Rachel Bilson did by pairing yours with flat sandals, cut-offs or a sundress.  Go a little more rocker like at Louis Vuitton by choosing a leather or embellished bag and wearing yours with jeans and a cool vest or jacket.  Try these:

Bellino Luciano Backpack $60 at Ebags
 Woven Front Backpack $44 at Newport News


 David Kind & Co. Jumbo Top Handle Backpack $102.40 at Ebags 

The Sak Eco Harmony Backpack $83 at Zappos
