The Most Functional & Stylish Backpacks

Filed under: Handbags

Backpacks are the go-to, functional and easy to wear bags. It's a no brainer. They offer ample space with plenty of compartments and pockets for organization. Backpacks distribute the weight of what you're carrying over both shoulders as opposed to ending up with one painful shoulder or an elbow.

Unfortunately, they are not the most fashion forward accessory to wear, especially if you are a lover of luxurious and head-turning handbags. So what is a woman to do when you need a practical bag that still exudes your sense of style? How about starting your search with our collection of eye catching backpacks that maintain their functionality. This is far from a complete list, but it serves as inspiration in your search.

First up is Prada's Nylon Backpack ($695) - a favorite of many for a multitude of reasons. It balances functionality and style so seamlessly that it has evolved into a classic and timeless accessory. Made with nylon, it lacks a bulkiness that many backpacks posses, it's easy to keep clean and lightweight. The interior is roomy and the exterior pockets allow for smaller items to be safe and easily accessible. In addition to a front flap closure with a magnetic and buckle closure, there's a drawstring closure for added security. Measurements: 12 1/2"H x 11 3/4"W x 6"D.

Is gold the new color for baby gear? Recently a couple of special edition gold-themed baby items caught my eye. Gwen Stefeani was recently spotted using a very shiny gold stroller made by British brand Mamas and Papas. There are just ten of the Ziko Gold strollers available and they sell for around $860 at Selfridges. Also at Selfridges you can pick up a gold papoose designed by Bill Amberg. The sheepskin papoose sells for around $1,895 and is also available in more traditional baby colors like pink and blue.
