betsy & iya Personal Stylist: Your Grown-up Backpack

Once a grade school must-have, the backpack has graduated into an adult carryall and we couldn't be more proud! No matter your job or lifestyle, owning a backpack should be top on your fall shopping list because it's an item that's purely functional yet still super stylish. One of three styles of backpacks we currently have in the shop is sure to fit YOUR needs. Goertzen Leather Backpack $240  The Goertzen leather backpack is beautiful and will only become more so with time. It is equal parts rugged and refined making it appropriate for your weekly commute and weekend adventure. Did I mention that this backpack was made especially for b&i? How rad is that?!

Nell & Mary Cascade Backpack  $125 Nell & Mary's Cascade Backpack is "inspired by clean architectural lines and modern structure". This bag is lightweight, doubles as a tote, and fits a laptop. It's perfect for toting work to your local coffee shop, brunching with your girlfriends, and running errands. I love the copper plated hardware and the handprinted pattern on this bag.

Dargelos TransPorter $240 By simply pulling the leather part of the strap, the Dargelos TransPorter bag converts from a backpack into a shoulder bag. It's the perfect commuter bag: 100% waxed canvas, reinforced with leather corners, and a two-way zipper makes it accessible from either side, which is great for when you're on the go.  The minimal lines and utilitarian feel make this bag modern and down right cool.

If you have any questions about these items, feel free to call us at 503-227-5482, option 5.
