I love tote bags as much as the next person but lugging my laptop, lunch, and other necessities to work everyday has taken a toll on my poor right shoulder. So I've started using a
backpack as my day bag instead. The only one I have right now is an old
North Face backpack from my high school days. It's still fully functional, but I've been looking for something a little more stylish instead of looking like I'm going off to hike a mountain. Lucky me, it seems like backpacks have become a trendy accessory with brands and designers from
Kate Spade to
Juicy Couture making backpacks fit for every fashionista. While backpacks can be seen most often in school hallways, chances are you'll also find people using backpacks outside of school and work. They distribute weight more evenly than large shoulder bags and leave the crook of your arm to hold more shopping bags instead! Take a look at my slideshow to see some stylish backpacks you should carry around this fall.
