To many, hearing the word “backpack” may conjure up negative thoughts of lugging textbooks across campus or following the leader in a single file grade school line. It’s time to think again because this accessory is making a comeback in very cool way. From vibrant patterns to sleek, leather styles, the backpack has made its way onto many runways and spread all over street style for this spring.
This Fashionista has mastered a boho-chic look with an effortlessly cool feeling written all over this outfit. She has on a pair of white, cutoff denim shorts paired with a loose silk tank top. Over the tank top, she has on a floral, silk kimono with dangling fringe detail along the ends. She accessorizes this look with a long, fringing necklace and, for the finishing touch, a way too cool for school backpack.

Not only is its sheer style impossible to ignore, but it is equally as functional. Whether you’re traveling around this summer or just simply hanging out outdoors around campus this weekend, a backpack is the perfect accessory to hold all your essentials.
