Backpack Purses
Backpack Purses Make a
Comeback Every year around tax return time I
diligently make a trip to the mall with the sole intention of finding a new purse. It has been seven years since my
venture was successful and I have been toting around the same black, leather, shoulder bag for all these years.
This year rendered the same results and as I was resting on a mall bench, feeling defeated and watching shoppers
walk by, I noticed a trend unfolding. Fewer women were struggling with their purse straps. Young mothers weren’t
juggling diaper bags with handbags. Instead, they had everything neatly tucked into one, multipurpose bag that was
not only trendy but practical. They looked very convenient with their sling back straps and a multitude of
different pockets and compartments built right in. A ray of hope trickled through my brain as I realized that
backpack purses were making a comeback!
When I think of a backpack, the image that comes to mind is one of students cramming their schoolbooks and
supplies into a book bag and slinging it onto their shoulders for a trek across campus. This type of backpack is
purely functional, but when you take that functionality and add to it a stylish design, you get a purse that is not
only sensible, but stylish as well. This obviously popular bag was also very unlike the purse I recalled from the
sixties, exhibiting more desirable features as an organizer and fashion statement all in one. Tired of walking the
mall and fighting the throngs of people, I decided I would go home and do a little research on the internet...
I was amazed at the number of selections I had to choose from and was absolutely thrilled that everything I
needed was right at my fingertips! I had discovered online shopping and felt as though I had struck gold! Not only
was I able to shop in peace, but I could easily view each stores policies on returns and guarantees while being
able to make purchases in a secure environment. I excitedly dove in with a newfound confidence that I would finally
find the answer to my ongoing dilemma. My excitement only intensified as I found a large variety of handbags from
several different web stores such as Nine West and Stone Mountain. I
viewed everything from satchels to hobo bags, to clutch purses and totes, all in an assortment of sizes and colors.
I was in handbag heaven!
After investigating the numerous selections in purse styles I focused my attention on my original attraction.
Along with the convenience of the sling back straps, each backpack bag is equipped with a roomy main compartment as
well as several small compartments that can be designated for any essential that you don’t want to waste time
digging around for. Each compartment and front closure is either zippered or secured with a snap and is made to
compliment the appearance of the bag, which was everything I was looking for.
The beauty of the backpack bag is its versatility, going from a day pack to a designer evening bag with
ease. It can be used while camping as a camping bag or is perfect as carry-on luggage when flying. There are also
men’s luggage bags available, usually made of genuine leather that will come in either black or brown. Backpack
bags for kids are also popular, with designs for little girls such as a pink, quilted lining or even their favorite
cartoon character on the outside. Whatever the style, you can find a bag to fit your budget from expensive designer
bags to cheap or discounted bags. I am now the proud owner of
a purse that meets and exceeds all of my needs and with the convenience of internet shopping, I have shoes and
accessories to match! My yearly trek to the mall is now history, thanks to this one, fabulous discovery and my
complete satisfaction with my new backpack handbag.
