ALL IN THE DETAILS: Life On Mars

When you were a kid entering kindergarten, going to the store with your mom to buy supplies was fascinating and fun. Walking into Staples, the smell of notebooks and pencils ran up your nostrils. But then the sudden realization that you get to hang out with your friends every day becomes apparent. Picking notebooks that featured cats, flowers and more girly things was fun for my mom. Yes, she got excited about school shopping, too.

My favorite part, though, was a picking a new backpack every year. There were backpacks that started to show my personality. Whether it was a solid color (representing my serious state that year), a patterned one (showing my excited mood to start school) or the leather ones. Leather started my love for the color black. The accessories you wear and the clothing you rock should display to the viewer who you are, so always be true to yourself.

This sassy Fashionista rocks a backpack that represents her quirky personality. The black backpack features cosmic looking cheeseburgers, pizza, bitten lollipops and rollerblades. All of that is highlighted around stars creating the space theme. The Fashionista picked a backpack that works with any outfit. Along with her colorful backpack, she sports a graphic T-shirt quoting Fall Out Boy lyrics. The quote is presented on top of a sunset sky background. Her lime green Converse add another pop of color. To add a bit of simplicity to her exciting outfit, she wears a gray cardigan and black jeans.

This Fashionista was not afraid to show her fun personality through her ensemble of color. She rocked every color by adding a bit of simplicity to it. I love the fact that she took a risk with an intense design on a backpack. She looks wonderful!

How To: If you are wearing an outfit that may seem “too simple” (yoga pants with a sweater on top, for example), add a backpack with a design on it to add color and excitement to your ensemble.
