I am a fan of ethnic fashion and love to see it on others, but when it comes to me I prefer it in small dosis. Like today, when the bag of choice was this ethnic colourful Peruvian backpack which I've had for a little over a year and yet its never been worn.
As much as I love the color and how light this backpack is, wearing it reminded me of why I don't carry this type of bag. It's impractical, slouchy, with very little compartments and the drawstring is just not doing it for me. Plus, I had a bad experience in Paris while carrying a backpack. So, if you've been around you know what this sounds like: first and last wear. What's your take on ethnic trends and on backpack bags ?

Love that colorful vintage sweatshirt! I used to carry a backpack frequently, and they can be a nice option, but I didn't feel quite comfortable in crowded places with it on my back. I found myself slinging it over one shoulder, (not so great on the back if it's heavy and stuffed). I usually opt for a short handled tote with a small clutch for essentials inside, now.
I'm not a fan of these type of backpacks. I need secure compartments (with zippers) externally and internally, and I hate big drawstrings and non-structured bags, regardless of what they're made of or where they come from.
Ah, "our" shoes. Always nice to see them. I don't miss mine, though.
It's a shame you aren't keeping it as it does look like a fun bag, so colourful! :)
It's all about functionality with bags for me, even more so now with the little ones. I couldn't use a backpack as I need things I can get into with one hand, preferably that don't swing around to hit one of the toddlers when I bend down to pick them up (usually means I pick a cross body bag to wear!)
Hope you are having a lovely week.
