The Eastpak Padded Pak'R Backpack (£55) is a must have in any of it's 48 colours and patterns, but when you throw animal print at such an iconic style it becomes a fashion essential. Aside from looking super stylish, it features a comfortable padded back section and thick padded, ergonomically designed shoulder straps to help handle the vast interior space. In other words, you could pretty much carry Yoda around in it all day and you wouldn't feel him, or The Force. To the outfit . . .
Outfit: Bag - c/o Eastpak, Tshirt - Wildfox, Dungarees - H&M, Belt - L.A.M.B., Shoes - Vans, Scarf around wrist - Vivienne Westwood, Watch - Casio Sheen.
The bag is the perfect accessory for this sort of super casual outfit. Sometimes I spend ages trying to figure out a bag for an outfit like this because they all look a bit too faffy or small for such an easy going look, but this is my new best friend! A real grab and go piece.
I love the tan accents against the monochrome animal print, it takes a sporty shape like this to a slightly more stylish level, and means that I can happily wear it with smarter shoes like boots, rather than just pumps or trainers. I know, I have these weird quirks but it's details like this that stand out to me!
I think it's the perfect partner to my new ASPCA Vans. Casual cool and a bit off the wall (no pun intended), both the shoes and the bag are rocking very busy patterns but somehow they stop short of clashing and just work, yey!
I was shocked to read that Eastpak runs a 30 year warranty on this bag too, as with all it's regular products! I was like, whaaaaaaat?! That's huge. Not that I'm about to go swinging from the trees with it but it's certainly good to know. Oh, and P.S. the Eastpak Pur Sang Collection - check it out, it's SLICK.
And with that, happy Bank Holiday Monday guys!
only one more week and those vans will be mine! x
