Back to School

Classes may almost be out for summer, but I find myself addicted to the schoolyard-chic of the satchel bag. It's utilitarian, functional, with the prefect combination of preppy with a side of attitude. 

I officially want.

And the trend means there are lots of lovely options available, in various colors, textures and labels, some more economical than others of course. I think I'd look smart with any of these options though!

Gorgeous, I want the Alexa really badly, I have the Bayswater though, so I can’t really go ahead and buy it, it’s not excusable! And I loooove the Proenza Schouler one, Uterque, a Spanish brand (Zara’s big sister, if you go to Spain on your honeymoon you should check it out) made a similar one for their winter collection, I was so sad when I found out it was sold out all over town.... 

I can already see me sporting the proenza schouler with a pair of my diesel jeans. Love it!

I love these bags. I'm looking for something along these lines with a backpack option, any ideas?

These are perfect Fall/School bags. Reminds me of 1960's Vogue.
