My husband suggested a trip or two ago that I should get a backpack for travelling since my shoulders are always messed up from switching my heavy bag from shoulder to shoulder. I obviously haven’t found the one yet that suits my taste, after all, a true fashionista travels in style over comfort ;). One of my problems is I would like a sturdy backpack for electronics. I’ve come across a few backpacks that really caught my eye and I thought I’d share them with you.

River Island White Studded Backpack

ASOS Backpack With Mini Floral Cut Out

ASOS Backpack Bag With Zips And Punchout Detail

Asos is always a good place to look for fashionable backpacks. If you’re in the market for something simple, Asos isn’t for you. These three caught my eye, and all are under $70. None are leather though. Another issue I have is I would like something strong as my husband manages to dump food stuff on me and I carry all of our travel documents as it is, plus my electronics. Aldo also has reasonable fashionable choices under $70 again and I think you can spot why I eyed one of them :P.

Stripes!! :D. That leads to this last bag that is under $50 by Baggu. I think this would be good for a festival but not for travelling.

Castelvisconti

Tortoriell

Baggu Backpack in Sailor Stripe

On the high end I came across the following bags.

Madewell Leather Rucksack

Patricia Nash ‘Vasto’ Leather Backpack

MCM Stark Large Studded Backpack

Tory Burch ‘viva’ Backpack

Alexander Wang Marti Backpack

Ohhhh how I would love to get my hands on the Tory Burch backpack!! But it’s not available :(. This one is but I prefer the striped backpack.

**I’ve updated the link and you can find the Tory Burch backpack at Shopbop.com. Click on the photo above 😉 

What are your thoughts on backpacks? After school and unless you’re a commuter, what is their purpose for females? My husband only uses a backpack and hates messenger bags and any bag that’s leather >_<.

I’ll continue my search and let you know what I settle on :).
