Back to School Shopping: The Ultra Chic Backpacks You Need Now

Who else is wired this time of year to buy fresh number 2 pencils, a pretty planner and a new backpack? I just heard that September is the new January so that gives me permission to update my backpack game, right?! (as well as tackle that long list of New Year’s resolutions…That’s another post).

I’m a handbag junkie, but I’ve thanked the fashion goddesses in recent years for giving the backpack such a chic makeover. I’ve used this Merona faux leather backpack from Target for almost two years as my go-to, everyday bag that holds goodies for me and my babes. Besides its cuteness and versatility to go with everything, it has just enough built-in zippers and pockets to keep everything organized.

Best of all, it keeps my hands free to hold the truly important things. 🙂

There are a ton of gorgeous backpacks, but here are my top six must-have backpacks perfect for fall and all for less than $45. Like what you see? Click on the links below for all the shopping diets! ‘Till next time, loves!
