My Favorite Backpack & Why
/I would gladly live out of a backpack if it meant I could see the world.
Okay, I don't know if I could live out of my backpack, but I sure am obsessed with this one! One, i'm in love with this backpack largely because of its color -- olive green is so my jam. Two, it's so sleek and stylish, but it's also practical. There are so many compartments yet still holds its sleek shape and style, which I'm impressed by. I have jam packed this backpack and it still looked like I had hardly anything in it. #winning
Since I got this bag from CalPak I have used it for literally everything -- my day to day, as a carry on, for shoots, etc. It's literally the perfect backpack. It has its own compartment in the back for your laptop, which allows you full function of the main compartment. Most backpacks don't have that, so you end up limited on space after putting your laptop in it. I have an 11inch MacBook Air and it fits with plenty of room, so you can definitely larger laptops in there. When I use it as a carry on, I typically put my passport, ID, boarding pass, etc. in the front zipper. Did I mention how perfect this bag is? haha
I checked the site for you all and it looks like it's no longer available in the olive green, but it comes in plenty of other gorgeous colors (and black for my minimalists). When I first came across this backpack, I expected it to be pricey af, but it's under $100. That still sounds like a lot, but if you shop around for other backpacks with it's style and durability, you'll find that others are actually more expensive.
I'm going on a quick turnaround trip, so of course, this will be the first thing I pack! What do you guys think? I'll link the page to shop below.
