ALL IN THE DETAILS: Backpacking Through Campus

When walking through campus, there is one very essential accessory that you spot on almost every student. That accessory is exactly what you have been carrying since kindergarten but with a new twist. Backpacks are one of the most useful things a college student could invest in, but I’m not talking about just any old backpack. I’m talking leather. I have noticed that designers are recently exploring the trend of leather backpacks with their versatility and style.

When choosing a backpack, I propose that leather would be the best option for a couple of reasons. If you use the proper spray protectant, the leather will outlast any weather. The heavy material is also more durable when it comes to hauling all of your books, laptop and binders around when compared to a cloth alternative. Lastly, leather just screams trendy, regardless of the time period or season. This trend just always seems to be on top!

This particular backpack is a great option due to its copious amount of pockets for organization. The white color of the leather is a fresh look as well since you are probably more familiar with seeing a black or a brown leather material. The monochromatic style that this Fashionista was going for worked well with the leather backpack and turned the look into a formal yet casual outfit. The studded design of the backpack is very modern and punk rock. It gives the impression that she knows her trends. Here is an option for a leather backpack and also a wool-lined coat to match.

How To: Leather may seem like a difficult fabric to dress in sometimes, but leather backpacks are always an easy choice regardless of the outfit you choose. Whether you are all dressed up in a fancy dress for a night on the town or are heading to a study date on campus in sweats and a T-shirt, the accessory is truly versatile and classic.
