RUSSEL'S BAG - SCHOOL BOY CHIC

This is Russel and his backpack.


Its like a briefcase with backpack straps which convert when unhooked into a shoulder bag.


The inside is decked out with lots of pen holders which comes in handy when you want to be organised.

BACK PACK BRIEF CASES

These vintage style bags are a bit like children's school cases. Satchels are definitely the flavour of the month right now with boxy being the new slouchy.



Japanese school bag with ye oldy worldy plastic moulded handle which i adore.


These backpack straps convert to a longer shoulder strap when they are unhooked letting the user choose between a shoulder bag and a backpack... how very convenient.


I have one a little like this in purple which i like but i have had trouble using it as its so stiff, but i love it all the same.

THE FORMAL BUM BAG

So we've had the sporty bum bag and here is the formal bum bag - characterized primarily by the oh-so-sophisticated use of material - namely snakeskin.


I predict the snakeskin / sporty combination as the next big thing in bum bags /fanny packs. They are already fairly dorkus so why not go the whole hog.


Combined with a floral shirt... apparently anything goes.


And all you designers out there- if you are not sure whether you choice in snakeskin is formal enough, just add a bow tie.
