Backpack Attack!

Move aside totes, doctor bags, and clutches...the backpack is the hottest staple sack for all of your necessities this year. Over the past six months there has been a surge in backpacks for both men and women and being in the city I have seen some pretty cool ones.

One thing I have noticed since moving to Brooklyn is that people in general are not as friendly and little unwilling to have their picture taken by a complete stranger. However luckily for this story, they didn't even have to know I was taking the pictures because all the detail is in the back! Talk about super-sleuthing for little sherlock!

Whether you prefer a simple Herschel with leather detailing, or a backpack you can soar with complete with candy colored wings, backpacks are versatile, functional, and are great for carting around on any adventure. Check out the smorgasbord of packs I spotted below, and be sure to pick one up and sport this trend in your own way!

 Camo and Cargo by the pool!

 Comin to getcha! I love everything about this...herringbone leggings, cognac boots, windowpane plaid, olive trench....and the icing? Black herschel pack...

 London Calling...

Navy Backpack with leather trims.

 Im sensing a theme... grey menswear with cognac trims and straps.

 Crimson Rugby Pack with a button pocket.

 Workout Herschel in Onyx with brown leather buckles.

 Geometric Herschel

 "The Nomad".....Tricky to catch but this backpack was really triangular and different...so cool!

 This one is by FAR my favorite....and the owner let me take a good picture! This backpack is from Japan, and is created using a special type of paper! It looked so fragile but the woman who was toting it around even opened it up and showed me that there was tons of stuff inside. The best part was that she said every time it rains the paper gets stronger...the opposite of what you might expect for a material such as this. One thing is for sure this is the best paper bag I've ever seen!

 Olive Canvas Bag

 This bag was the kookiest of the bunch. I'm not sure if she is flyin anywhere fast with that set of wings but to each his own!
