ALL IN THE DETAILS: Pack It Up

July 30th, 2015 at 2:00am

Satchels were so last summer. Ditch that cross-body bag and switch it out for a backpack! Small backpacks are the statement of the summer. They go with almost any outfit and can fit so much stuff in them. Who said backpacks were just for school? These bags can accompany you any season of the year. The best part of backpacks being the new purse is that they are hands free. You don’t have a bag dominating your body. It’s on your back! You basically forget about it. Just take it off or be the lazy girl (like me) and swing it over one shoulder for access. I have a love/hate relationship with bags that I can literally just throw whatever I want in. For example, a Louis Vuitton Neverfull bag is something you can just keep throwing stuff in. It is basically a Mary Poppins bag. These bags are great for daytime! When the night comes and you are about to go out, bring back that dusty old cross-body to keep your items easily organized.

This Fashionista styled her outfit to her backpack perfectly. By wearing a black top with a black backpack, the white polka-dots really stand out! The dark jeans added to this. Having a nice pop of color in a predominantly dark outfit is a look you can wear any season. Plus, wearing white sandals was such a smart choice! Obviously, she had to keep in the gold accessories to match the bag.

How To: Keep your outfit in a theme that will make your backpack stand out! The daytime is a perfect time to use a fashionable backpack as a purse. Also, backpacks support your carefree lifestyle in the summer 100 percent of the time!
