Although it’s very generous for Bentley to offer us our backpacks, lets be honest, a Targus isn’t always the best accessory when it comes to an outfit. This fall, look into these alternative backpack options to help pull your outfit together:

1.     Longchamp

Longchamp bags are very popular among the college crowd, but not just because they match almost any outfit. These bags are great for toting all your stuff around the mountainous campus. Wanna take a few extra bananas from Seasons? No problem, just throw them in the Longchamp. The Le Pliage line is the most popular for casual events. The bags can be bought in leather or nylon. The nylon is more casual but also more durable. Longchamps are great to fit all those notebooks, pens, calculators, and just about everything else. Price: 145.00+

 

2.     H&M

H&M is one of my favorite stores to go to because of how diverse the clothing lines are. H&M is perfect for business clothes, Halloween costumes, or any casual going out clothes. A few cute schoolbags that are alternative to the Longchamp include: (Prices range: 34.95-39.95)

 

 

3.     Nasty Gal

Nasty Gal is similar to H&M, but is sadly only an online store at the moment. It offers a lot of trendy clothes, shoes, and accessories. This black backpack is great to bring to class or walk around Boston with. (Price: $98.00)

This black tote also from Nasty Gal is cute and big enough, that it’s worth the buy. (Price: $50.00)
