Today we’ll talk about stylish and fashion accessory- backpack!
Agree, backpacks have long moved from the category of hiking and sports equipment to the category of a trendy women's accessory. Considering the dynamic pace of life, such a wardrobe item is simply necessary! In my opinion, a city backpack is the best alternative to a bag, allowing you to hug with both hands when meeting on the street. :-)
And of course, the backpack holds many important and necessary things that can be carried without much strain. Cosmetic bag, phone, keys, napkins, comb, and, if necessary, a tablet or folder with papers... everything will fit and certainly will not weigh on your hands. Personally, I have long given my heart to urban backpacks and wear them much more often than bags.

Candy colors
Pastel shades are firmly on the list fashion trends. A backpack in this color scheme is the best choice for a gentle summer look.

You should pay attention to the “Candy” collection from Italian brand Furla, which is famous for the design and quality of its accessories. It consists of stylish small backpacks, shining with a glossy shine.
In the spirit of the 80s
The rebellious fashion of the 80s inspires fashion designers to create details stylized in the spirit of this time. Shiny metallic-colored accessories came to us precisely from the disco aesthetics of that era, but, unlike the last century, the 21st century is more inclined towards laconicism.
Such backpacks attract attention, so they do not tolerate excesses, claiming to be the main part of the image. The color scheme of clothing should not compete with it. The best choice- neutral colors, and as for other accessories, there is no need for experiments here: if your choice fell on a backpack of such an extravagant color, then there should be only one such extraordinary thing.
Since its appearance in the 19th century, country style has not changed its basic needs - simplicity and functionality. The basis of country style - natural materials(suede, leather), simple colors (yellow, brown, white, beige and others), as well as a very laconic decor in the form of fringe, once borrowed from the Indians. These backpacks go perfectly with light dresses with ethnic print or with denim items.
Marine motifs
Classic backpack model nautical style have a simple design. A typical set of colors is white and all shades of blue, as well as a striped print. Most often, they are shaped like a bag made of canvas or linen, sometimes decorated with leather. Instead of fasteners - lace or leather ribbons. However, there are also more complex models of these summer textile backpacks: they are larger in size, more dense, and have many pockets and zippers. Backpacks in a nautical style are ideal for a vacation on a yacht, a trip to the beach or a walk along the sea coast.
In plain sight
A transparent backpack is a bold idea for those who do not consider the contents of their backpack to be something personal and intimate. Due to its minimalism, this thing may seem boring, but a creative young lady will immediately find a way to make it a universal addition to any look. And this is very simple to do: you just need to change its content by selecting items bright colors that suit this or that outfit.
Bizarre shapes and colors
Lovers of everything bright and unusual are unlikely to be able to pass by such backpacks. The designers took into account all the wildest wishes and brought many interesting ideas. For example, a few years ago, the Moschino brand released a backpack in the shape of a leather biker jacket, Fendi – in the shape of a monster, and Marni – with an abstract print. Therefore, now anything can show off behind your shoulders: from orange slice to the funny crocodile! But with such flashy accessories you can make many mistakes, risking looking comical. Therefore, under no circumstances should you wear clothes that are too colorful or combine such a backpack with other pretentious details.
Another innovation that has appeared recently is backpacks with a 2D effect. They look like they were painted, however, in fact, this is an ordinary roomy backpack, but with an extraordinary design.
How and with what to wear military-style backpacks
The military style, which is characterized by colors such as khaki, olive, dark green, brown, is not out of backpack fashion, sometimes black, gray, blue and dark red are allowed. The main decorative attributes are buttons, lacing, various elements of a military uniform and, of course, a large number of pockets. The main characteristics are restraint, severity and monotony.

Additional decor ideas
This season, the most popular decorations for bags and backpacks are fur keychains different forms. Fashion houses Such accessories are often shown on the catwalk, most often in the shape of a ball or a tail. And here's the most unusual model introduced the Fendi brand by making a keychain in honor of Karl Lagerfeld.

If you have scarves of different colors in your arsenal, this is a big plus, since with their help you can, firstly, enliven any look, and, secondly, complement shoes or a belt with another accessory to match.
Some people are proud of their hand-knitted scarf, others like to weave lace napkins and flowerpots. And Finnish artist Lisa Hietanen creates real people using yarn, crochet and knitting needles. They are lifelike not only in size. Facial features, hairstyle, details of clothing - the authenticity of knitted figures is amazing.

Now it's more than just entertainment and fun. And this is not only a way of self-expression. The craftswoman receives many orders to make knitted people from photographs or even from life.

It’s unimaginable, but she can really knit almost any object from nature - how do you like a glass of milk with a plate of porridge, would you like to treat yourself?
And now about the mundane, namely, the technique of creating such unusual “fabrics”. First, Lisa takes photos from different angles. Then he creates a frame from reinforcement. After that, he fashions a figure from plaster and cement. And then he “dresses” the statue with crochet and knitting needles. To create one human figure in full height takes up to 4 months. So much patience! And the eye and accuracy are simply unimaginable.

Or perhaps they will inspire you to create something of your own, just as unusual and beautiful.
