Mostly A’s: Sporty– (Nike, Adidas, The North Face, L.L. Bean, Eddie Bauer)
Because you are always on the go, you need a sporty backpack that
is built to last. You tend to prioritize function over fashion, and when
it comes to school, you mean business! A classic carrier that can
translate from class to the gym is the name of the game where your
college life is concerned. Explore athlete favorites like Nike and
Adidas, or more outdoorsy options like North Face, L.L. Bean, and Eddie Bauer.
Mostly B’s: Girly- (Vera Bradley, Coach)
Omg! You would never be caught dead wearing anything unisex. In
addition to bright colors, you gravitate towards monogram or paisley
floral prints, a la Coach and Vera Bradley. Brands such as these are ultra
feminine, just like you, and put a fun twist on the drab backpack.
Mostly C’s: Trendy– (Target, Urban Outfitters, Forever21)
Fashion is about making a statement, and for you, the best way to do
that is by finding a backpack that reflects your trendy style. Whether you
prefer floral, southwestern, striped, or brights, stores like Target, Urban
Outfitters, and Forever21 provide modern takes
on the classic backpack.
Mostly D’s: Indie– (Privately-owned shops, thrift stores, military outlets)
You don’t want your clothes to look like everyone else’s, so why should
your backpack? You may need to hunt a little for your style gear, but that’s
what makes it exclusive to you. Local boutiques, thrift stores, and military
outfitters all feature unique products to match your unique style, so go out
on a limb and have fun with it!
“Fashion is merely a saying: I belong to your world. I’m wearing the same uniform
as your army, so don’t shoot.” –Paulo Coelho, The Winner Stands Alone
