so growing up, i was a total tomboy. i went to an elementary/middle school that required uniforms, which was fine by me, and my weekend wear consisted primarily of a yellow tshirt and overalls (sidenote: overalls are another item from the past that i'm coveting in the present). given that i wasn't sweating what to wear, it's little surprise that accessorizing wasn't at the top of my priority list.
but then, cher horowitz snapped her fingers and said 'as if' and all of a sudden, mini-backpacks were everywhere. and that did it for me. goodbye, denim hobo bag from kmart (yes, seriously. but i assure you it wasn't as heinous as it sounds). hello, red patent leather mini-backpack from the department store. since then, handbags are my (fashionable) achilles' heel.
flash-forward a decade or so and the mini-backpacks are back, and i'm so very glad about it.
on to the round-up!
the olsen twins were the ones to get my really revved up about this style again. at the top of my wishlist is this classic beauty by the row:
i've recently discovered the accessories line KARA, and i am obssessssssed. this mesh & leather number is amazing:
and finally, because im a sucker for anything quilted, i can't not have this quilted style from pixie market:
