So what makes an 'expensive-looking' bag?

Girls can usually tell an expensive bag; and pretty much anything that's all leather. I'm specifically thinking of that tote snow posted earlier (sorry snow) and any of those faux-workwear bags with the leather straps and stuff.

I'm gonna drop this convo though since I think I'm the only one here that thinks this, haha.

Why not go with the cote et ciel ones you posted, snow? I´ve always wanted to kop one of those.

The only downside to a backpack is if you live in a climate that's really hot/has really hot summers you get a sweaty back/shoulders. I'll probably use one even when I'm done with school though.
That said the Silent SS13 backpack looks cool. Too bad we won't be seeing it for a while.


This. Also, backpacks are kind of a pain if you get around via bus/train... people never pay attention to where they're standing - end up smacking people w/ their backpacks all the time.
