ALL IN THE DETAILS: Backpacking To The ’90s

Being a girl is hard work, and carrying around all you will need to achieve that work is even more of a task. Not to mention, we have to find a carrier that’s cute, functional and affordable.

Fortunately for us, the idea of the handbag has been around for centuries, evolving from a feature in dresses of Victorian clothing, to shoulder bags, satchels and clutches in the early 1900s. Now, the handbag industry has bloomed into a multimillion dollar industry with tons of styles, textures and functions.

This Fashionista rocks the perfect bag for school: the backpack. The backpack brings a retro vibe from the ’90s (hello, Clueless)! It combines the perfect mix of cool girl-chic to make a great bag and bring together a classic look.

The backpack is also a great bag for class. The accessory can hold books, tablets, makeup and any other items you may need. It’s so much easier (and way more stylish) than carrying a regular backpack and a purse.

Backpacks not only have multiple uses, but they’re also easy to style. This Fashionista paired her backpack with a stylish blue and black plaid coat with a wide collar, a girly dress and classic Mary Jane pumps. All of this is combined to make a great professional look for a presentation or work.

How To: What’s cool about this bag is that it can be found in multiple stores in tons of patterns and fabrics. You can pair a patterned backpack with jeans and graphic T-shirt, or go classic with a leather backpack and a cute dress. Either way, you’ll look cute and not have to worry about your bag falling off of your shoulder all day.
