And my favorite to travel with.
Has anyone been on a college campus lately? Backpacks are BACK! And it makes sense. Bags are heavy and it is so much better to have equally distributed weight on your back, versus everything on one shoulder. When I was in school everyone had big shoulder bags and 8 out of 10 girls, were carrying longchamps.
Same goes for traveling. Regardless of your larger suitcase or carry-on, I recommend bringing a backpack with you. We’re not talking an LL Bean, and not a huge REI backpackingfor3months backpack. There are some very chic and trendy bags right now.
My personal favorite comes from Sweaty Betty, which is a British athletic ware company. The backpacks are cute, with little gold details, but also functional. The material is scuba style fabric, there are adjustable straps and several compartments for sweaty clothes, toiletries and water bottles. This is my go-to “personal item” now and I don’t plan on going “back” any time soon.
