Elizabeth and James Satin Backpack
For a fancier look, we love this backpack finished in shiny satin. Pack it on your next getaway to a fashion-forward city like London or Milan.

Clare V. Marcelle Backpack
While the shoulder straps make this bag super convenient, it's also small enough to tote around by the top handle if your back needs a break. Plus, the mix of neutral colors means you can wear it with pretty much any outfit.
