Since my youngest has started running around like really keeping me on my toes I have dropped the changing backs and wanted to opt for something more practical but also very stylish to carry our day to day essentials. Of course, the first thing that came to mind was a Kanken by the Swedish outdoor brand Fjall Raven, a backpack that was designed in 1978 and has continued its popularity through it's simple and modern design.

Sometimes when I do go out I opt for a smarter bag but these are perfect for when your busy and on the go, plus the choice of colour waves is amazing. I decided to opt for this fun blue one which adds a pop of colour to any casual outfit. Today I paired it up with a Chambray from Toyshop and a dress from Jojo Mama Bebe and necklace from Anchor and Crew.
As daily backpacks go these are these are slightly more pricey than normal high street brands (but far more durable) retailing at around £67 but if you shop around like I did and try out Love the Sales you can pick them up for £45 which is 33% less. For those who have never heard of Love the Sales I highly recommend checking it out as it's basically a site that curates all the current sales of all the brands you love including designers such as Ralph Lauren sale and Alexander McQueen
Great post - I'm a sucker for a good backpack as it's just most convenient for me! I don't often find one that's both practical and stylish, so it's good you've found one :)

ReplyDeleteI love that jumper in the bottom right - it look super cosy.
ReplyDeleteoooh I'd love a Kanken! They look great x
ReplyDeleteThat is one cute backpack! I'm currently loving my TOMS backpack that I bought for holiday but haven't been able to give up. I don't know how I'd have survived without backpacks and backpack change bags second time around!
ReplyDeleteLove your style and how cute is that backpack!!
ReplyDeleteI'm finally convinced about getting a backpack. Stylish and useful for modern fashionable mommies like us! haha!
