Choosing a bag to go to class nothing of a coincidence. Although it is designed to be practical and sturdy enough to be able to carry all of its course materials, it must also meet a few aesthetic standards to enhance our high school, college and preparatory class outfits.

Backpack, shoulder bag, shopping bag, what are the trendiest school bags from the moment? How to choose among all the existing models? Focus on course bags !

How to choose your course bag?

The solidity of the course bag

If we stay on its primary utility, the school bag is made to carry all your belongings. And god knows these are heavy. Between notebooks, A4 formats, pockets and so on, the weight of a school bag can very quickly reach 10 kilos... There is therefore a point on which we must not derogate from the rule, it is the strength of the bag !

Even if you've set your sights on a nice little canvas bag that looks nice to you, always think about the contents of your bag and what you'll need to put in it on a daily basis. Will the handles be strong enough ? Do the seams feel solid to you? Is the bottom of the bag lined ? Same thing if it is a backpack.

Although you might be tempted to choose a cheap school bag , always prioritize quality over price. The sturdier your bag is, the longer it will last.

The style


A long way from the days of schoolgirls with their uniforms and leather satchels. In 2021, the teenager goes to class with what is called a school bag . This bag is actually a standard bag or one designed specifically for lessons, which will allow him to store his school equipment but not only.

We know that a young woman's bag must be big enough to carry all kinds of things. It must also be solid and of course fashionable! Because yes, if there is one important point to remember, it's that everyone wants to have a nice bag to go to class.

From middle school to high school to college benches, school bags won't be the same. While college girls are more attracted to backpacks, high school girls are starting to take an interest in shopping bags and XXL bags. At university, you can give free rein to your desires by opting for a towel bag, an oversized handbag e, an urban backpack… The options are multiple. But again, these are all just standards because everyone does as they please.

If you don't want to opt for a backpack or a school bag, the handbag option will be perfect for you.

  • The shoulder bag is very practical for those looking for a feminine bag to go to class .
  • The shoulder bag is also a good option.
  • For good sturdiness and class, leather or imitation leather is preferred over canvas handbags.

Here are some examples of possible choices:

  • For a totally casual style:the backpack, the bowling bag flexible..
  • Halfway between a very feminine bag and a casual bag:the supple tote...
  • The ultra-feminine bag:the leather or suede tote bag, the large XXL handbags...
  • The trendy bag:the tote bag (not very solid, but may be suitable for certain days with light equipment).

Handbag ergonomics

@Sezane

Remember that your bag must have a closure, which is not the case with all handbags. To keep your belongings protected, it is better to a zip fastener .

There are a lot of bags with a simple press button but imagine yourself on public transport or in the hallways of your school, with almost all of your bag spilling out on the floor…(make-up bag, tampons, sweets, etc.). In addition, when you know that your bag will often be placed on the floor or hung on a chair, it is better that it has a good closure.

Also think about the handles of your bag! They must be thick and strong and above all be the right size.

Trendy school bags

The messenger bag

@Saheline

This is one of the little darlings of the moment, the messenger bag. It's perfect for putting on all your course stuff and it also gives you the choice between wearing it over the shoulder or on your arm.

Ideally choosea leather messenger bag aged camel or black that has an extra soul. It will very easily sublimate your high school girl looks but also that of a young university student.

The tote bag

@ Number-one

This is the classy option to go to class. The tote bag has style, it's feminine and it's big. Perfect for carrying your learning essentials and personal belongings with you. The tote bag dresses up your most casual looks and enhances your dressy outfits.

We advise you to choose one in large format with handles in the hand but also handles allowing it to be worn on the shoulder .

As far as colors are concerned, it will always be easier to choose a black, navy blue or camel tote bag, which will go with almost all of your wardrobe.

The trapeze bag

@Mango

With its ideal shape, the trapeze bag can accommodate all your belongings without any problem. Its cut is feminine and you can find them at very affordable prices depending on the models chosen.

XXL bags


XXL bucket bag, puffy bag , huge bag, XXL bags are very fashionable this year. With their couture spirit, they are also formidable allies for carrying as many things as possible!

Avoid

  • Luxury brands:While it's tempting to go for a high-end branded school bag, remember that school is first and foremost a place of learning. Being stylish is good, but there is no need to expose all your tastes for luxury brands. You'll have plenty of time to do that later. This could attract jealousy or give the wrong image of you.
  • Canvas bags that are too light:the best way to have to change your school bag regularly.
  • Bags without a padded or lined bottom that won't last the whole year.
  • The ultra flashy colored bag that you will never manage to match every day.
  • Choosing an XXL bag when you're small! Not top level respect for morphology.
