Back to School series: Supplies - Bags

Hey guys, its Charliye. Back to school supplies can be expensive and a pain to find the right ones. Well i have found the best school supplies whether they are affordable or extravagant i have picked out a few placed to get the best back to school items at the best prices. 

Back to school bags: There are many different types of bags that are possible for school. There are satchels, handbags, backpacks and many more different types and sizes. Here i will list quite a lot of different bags, i have either used or would use for school.


Satchel: These bags are suitable if you don't have a lot to carry yet want a stylish bag to hold your belongings. These bags have a neat look and are the perfect size to stay out of the way whilst continuing on with day to day life.

Extravaganthttps://www.cambridgesatchel.com/buy/the-classic/ I love these bags, they look amazing, i feel like the classic would be the best choice as even though they are the extravagant option they are still more affordable than others and they are good quality. I myself would choose the 15" (£120 is the price for a 15") bag as i feel anything less than that would be slightly to small to put books as well as everything you would need. These bags look stylish, they come in a variety of colors which can brighten up a dull school uniform (If you are unlucky enough to have to wear one like me). The bags overall look neat and have a shoulder strap which would mean they would be better to use for school instead of carrying them around by hand. Also if you buy from this website you can personalize this bag with the option of embossing (at an extra price). The only downside to this bag would seem to be the price but it would be a great present to get as it looks quite long lasting. 
Affordablehttp://www.zatchels.com/bags.html?bag_type=56 These bags are also handmade leather bags and although they are quite expensive they are in the affordable category because as of right now, they are on sale at roughly half price per satchel. These satchels are the same size as the extravagant one and have lots of patterns as well. However they are only on sale for a little while so i would suggest getting one whilst you can! The bags come in plain color of they can come with multiple different patterns (such as roses and even hello kitty!) Another small downside is that they don't do any embossing (or at least i couldn't find any embossing options.) One more thing i found out which cannot really be blamed for is that as of right sizes are selling out fast so for certain bags the sizes will not be great. However they are great quality and right now are at amazing prices!
Affordable.2:  http://www.boohoo.com/restofworld/accessories/bags/icat/bags/new-in-accessories/anne-two-tone-large-satchel/invt/azz23871 i felt as if since the first affordable ones would soon possibly be going back up in price, is should include a second one. I really like this satchel because it is £22 pounds so it is a very decent price, it has an inside zip pocket which would ensure that nothing would fly out if you didn't fasten it tight. The only downside i could find about this bag is that it only comes in two colors, of course like on the other two websites there are other types of satchels you may prefer i just thought that these ones would be the best for school. The colors are nice although if there were more colours and maybe a couple patterns that it would be much more appealing.


Handbags: Handbags are a nice choice for school main because of all there compartments and they are a very stylish and sophisticated approach towards a school bag.

It is very sophisticated which although looks stunning is an expensive £240 which is quite a decent price for a Michael Kors bag. I'm not to certain what color that bag can come in but it defiantly comes in white which is not great for school. White will stain and smudge the bag when there is a mark, and when it is £240 you don't want the bag covered in marks. Inside the bag there is a multiple array of compartments which is great for school so that you can just reach into bag and find what you want easily. This bag would be the perfect splurge bag although it still is slightly small for school if you have to carry a lot around.
Affordable: http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/bags-and-purses/tan-double-zip-tote-bag_318090318 this bag is possibly my favorite bag i have chosen for this, it is at a very affordable price for its size and quality.The quality is very good too, so it is defiantly not a case of buy cheap buy twice. i searched a lot for a bag like this and i very much like the array of colors. It has a vast choice option from very vintage colors to more modern colors, so it is suitable for an array of people. However this bag doesn't have compartments, it has plenty of space inside and a small pocket to put the smaller objects you need to keep near you.

Rucksacks: Rucksacks are a very typical go to bag. it is perfect for carrying multiple books and anything else you would need.

Although it is pricey, it goes with a mass amount of outfits. It has a big space inside which is perfect for carrying everything you need for that busy day at school. It looks very nice and it looks different from the other bags at school so it won't look drab it looks bright and floral which always looks so much better than just plain color.Even though i have it in the pricey range i still think it is priced right for what it is.
Affordable: https://www.victoriassecret.com/pink/accessories-backpacks/campus-backpack-pink?ProductID=201627&CatalogueType=OLS This bag is great for school, it has so many pockets for organizing and storing things, it also has lots of room for those big binders that you have to carry everywhere with you. It looks different from the normal backpack and even though it comes in a variety of patterns it still has a almost tomboy aura towards it.  It can be used for many different things, whether doing some workouts at the gym or your first day back to school. It is a very multiuse bag.

Purse: I of course had to choose a couple purses because every girl needs a purse to carry around everything essential.  
Extravagant:  http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Radley+On+the+run+pale+blue+large+trifold+matinee+purse/198928497,default,pd.html This £69 radley purse is so cute! The signature dogs are clearly apparent on this purse which couple in a small choice of colors, it has many sections which makes it easy for finding what you were looking for.
Affordable:   http://uk.accessorize.com/view/product/uk_catalog/acc_17,acc_1.1/6900322200 This purse is so adorable, it looks really cute and yet is a simple coin purse which can be shoved in your bag and your ready to go!
