Purses come in many different shapes, sizes, and styles.
Some have been around for years and are considered classics; other styles have emerged relatively recently.
One such style is called backpack purses.
When style and fashion are important in your life, it's even more important to make wise choices with your fashion budget dollar.
Backpack purses are a great choice because they can serve a double or even triple function.
These bags are stylish and functional.
They come in a large variety of sizes; some can even fit a laptop computer as well as a change of clothes.
There are really small versions too, that can only hold your essentials, such as a wallet, keys, and cell phone.
Since the backpack purse is so functional and stylish, it has become quite popular.
With popularity comes competition and choices.
There are a lot of different brands to choose from including high end designer bags to knock-offs and no-brand discount varieties.
Within these categories you have even more choice, with the type of materials available to you.
Some popular material choices are canvas, vinyl, fabrics galore and of course, the ever popular leather.
Some may argue if you want to be perceived as fashionable, then you "must" choose leather as the material, however, I disagree.
Although it is true that quality leather is a great choice for its durability, and the way it wears so well no mater what the weather is, there are other materials that are just as good.
In some ways other materials make an even better fashion statement.
This is because it makes a more personal statement about its owner.
Another bonus to choosing a material other than leather is that often times backpack purses made out of other materials cost less than those made out of leather.
This results in leaving you more of your fashion dollar to spend on other accessories.
You may even save enough to purchase another backpack that is made out of a different material, color, or pattern.
If you decide to do your shopping online, it's totally possible to find even better deals and save even more money.
And just think of the money you will save on gas by not driving all over the county shopping for the perfect purse.
A savvy shopper should be able to save enough to buy two backpack purses.
Of course there is nothing wrong with opting for higher end back purses made out of leather.
Whichever style and material you choose, enjoy your stylish accessory.
