A college student should always have a sturdy bag to carry around. Remember the days of the L.L. Bean monogrammed backpack? Those were HOT.
Unfortunately, they aren't hot anymore.
Unless you are some variation of the pre-med/science/engineering track and you NEED a backpack to take you from class, library and then to the liquor store (where you buy your fake id bought alcohol to drink away your pain) please throw the jansport/ll bean/whatever brand backpack away!!
You are in college now so smarten up a bit. It won't kill you to carry a tote or messenger bag and it'll make your morning after smeared mascara/sweat pant ensemble look a touch bit classier.
Okay... if you are a boring sellout here is option A. Anything is better than the jansport:
The Herve Chapelier bag has captured the fascination of boring middle school/high school girls who think that by carrying a bag with a little green label and a "frenchy" name they are chic.
i suppose the bag is kind of cute, but only in an interesting color combination like turquoise and light pink.
This is the route for those who are so attached to their backpack that they fear change. This is an easy transition from the backpack and is at least a step in the right direction.
this bag is around $130 from any dept. store
When I return, I will explore other tote options! from other classic brands to some surprise winners.
stay tuned ;)

OK, so I definitely want a tote now. My current backpack is not jansport or anything, but it is messy and beginning to fall apart. I really want a tote, but I dont like to have what other people have. Oh fashionista, can you help me find an original tote that is unique and would represent me?
