39 Backpacks and Laptop Bags to Make "Back to School" Stylish


[Edit]
|
It’s September, and you know what that means: Back to School! Fall is a refreshing time of year; things fall back in order, and routine and structure make their way back into our lives. A huge part of this is related to the resumption of elementary, middle, and high school classes, as well as university and college courses. For many, September marks the start of the new year, and feels like a much more appropriate time to turn over a new (blaze orange?) leaf than the traditional calendar year start in January. This cluster includes fun, stylish, practical and offbeat backpacks and funky laptop bags to store all your school supplies and must-have gadgets. My favorite are the Violet May computer clutches featured in the main gallery, but there are some awesome innovations in the slide show. Ready to hip the campus in style? Via: trendhunter |
