One of the best things about Tumblr is that questions and conversation between users is common--almost encouraged. So the other day when somebody asked me what I use for a school bag, it really tripped me up. What is my ideal school bag? Do I have a favorite?!
I try my best not to bring my computer to class because it just leads to distractions so most days I honestly don't even use a standard school bag. Instead I just use a purse tall enough or wide enough for a couple notebooks, my planner, and a couple pencils. I am a very organized person so that last thing I want is a heavy purse full of junk.

However, when I do lug around my computer I like to use my Vera Bradley bag
because the sturdy bottom can hold a lot of weight. Plus I love that it is bright!!
I also really love my Francesca Joy Tote!
If you are like me and don't use a backpack, I think these brands make some other great options:
Land's End Monogram Canvas Tote (only $25!)
Dooney and Bourke is seriously growing on me!
What do you use for a school bag?
I have been using a large Longchamp bag for most of the year, but lately it has been getting too heavy for me to carry with my laptop and some books! When I need to carry a lot for a full day, I have been using a backpack. I'm still trying to find a good mix between tote/backpack for all my stuff!

I use totes, I can never have too many. When I have to carry alot I use my Northface backpack, it has so much room and very comfortable to carry. I LOVE your shoes btw!!!
ReplyDeleteIt depends...I'm only in high school right now. Some days I use a North Face backpack, but that's mainly when I have to carry everything for all of my classes. I have a Vera Bradley bag like yours but in Mocha Rouge that I use when I can leave a few things at home. And when I can leave most of my stuff at home, I use a large Longchamp tote.
ReplyDeleteI like the last one best! Love your instagrams! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHow do you do it girl?! I could never carry a tote - my shoulders and back would kill! But I wish I could, because totes are so much cuter than a backpack! Anyways, I always use my North Face backpack - it's comfy and is huge!
ReplyDeletewhere is your shirt from?!
ReplyDeleteIt's J. Crew!

I also carry a tote! I haven't worn a backpack since I can remember :) Also- I read True Prep! Such a funny and great read!
ReplyDeleteBest,

I have to use a backpack most of the time, but I use my Vineyard Vines tote when I don't have to carry much.
ReplyDeleteDo you happen to know the name of that style of your Vera Bradley tote? I'm thinking about purchasing one myself. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYes, I use the 'Vera' Tote!
