Put Your Prints Up, Baby

As fall slowly rolls around the corner, I cannot put a stop to what I would like in my fall wardrobe collection. I once met a girl who was studying fashion design with an emphasis on knits so she could makes awesome print sweaters like these which is TRéS COOL!!! Prints on sweaters are a wonderful way to add quirkiness to a rather plain ensemble.  Plus they are usually funny, cute, or just a bit out of the ordinary.

The Backpack Grows Up

When most of us think of backpacks, we revert to third grade when we walked around hunched over carrying a bag three fourths our size.  School was cool and so were those bags.  

Flash forward to 2012....

Backpacks are cool again! 

This time you don't have to worry about being swallowed up by their size.  The fashionably small bags are perfect to fit all your necessities plus a cardigan for a night out or a towel for a day at the beach.  

And you don't have to worry about looking like a little rugrat.  Some styles show a grown up sophistication in leather or enjoy a laid back denim style.
