new horizons








I got a package today! And inside its pretty wrappings was the first backpack I've bought since the sixth grade. If you remember this post, and reflect on how long ago that was (and how long ago I had purchased my last backpack), you might detect a touch of hesitation. I always think I look silly whenever I wear them, and openly envied girls who pulled off a backpack so effortlessly. The thing is though, I kind of needed to buy one, so I figured this olive green floral number would fill that void. And I love it. Plus its Marc Jacobs -- need I say more?

Oh, and its already March. T minus 19 days until spriiing!!

  15. Haha, Diana, only you would have a Marc Jacobs backpack. (I guess a few other people must, but you know what I mean). I really love the Andy Warhol t-shirt too. : )

  23. I love pretty backpacks, I have a not so pretty one because I am a keen walker. But also a pretty surfer style backpack with great prints on, it has seen better days tbh and as soon as I go back to Newquay (one of the best places to surf in the UK) I will have to get a new one. Even the backpack I used to go backpacking with is pretty cool, pink and grey with badges sewn on from the places I've visited with in. I think you need them sometimes, they are very practical for trips and uni. Having a backpack does not have to be unfashionable!x

  26. I completely adore your outfit (possibly biased because I have the same t-shirt) -- that sweater is so wonderfully sequined!
