kipling backpacks

I was just having a conversation with my friend who is expecting (sup Preeti) about whether or not I got a designer baby bag. I shared that while it was a major wish list idea of mine, I never ended up pulling the trigger.

For one, I could never really settle on a style and/or name brand that seemed worth it. For two, with utility and style in mind, I also couldn’t find one that I truly liked (they all felt like computer bags to me). Off the bat, I made this bag work (and I still do more often than not), then I quickly picked up this backpack as a test drive for the style, and not shortly after, committed the kid to this one. Therefore, now when I think about packing anything for Harry, I only think about doing it via backpack.

So when I had an opportunity to grow Harry’s collection by a few new Kipling backpacks, I was excited by the prospect, all the while keeping both my style and need in mind. Since we’re all always on the go, go, go, I knew I needed something sleek and mobile to tote around. I decided on the Caity backpack as a perfect compact option for daily use and weekends at the grandparents, while I anticipate the Sanaa will be seeing many an airport and city. Both are totable and totally adorable and I can’t wait to put them to great use, both for myself and for the little guy.
