TRENDING: Velvet Backpacks

 

I remember velvet being big in the 1990s (yes, I was alive back then); it's reach extended to everything from shirts to dresses to backpacks.  Well, my friends, the time has come when all those things are back in fashion again.  Yes, it's true.  Velvet backpacks are everywhere and we've scoured the web for the best ones for back to school and beyond.



1. T-Shirt & Jeans Mini Velvet Zipper Backpack
This backpack screams early '90s, but in the cutest, and most nostalgic way possible.  It's got lots of storage room with one zipper down the middle of the bag and two side pockets, but at 9" high and 6" wide, you'd really only be carrying this out with your friends, rather than to school.  Unless, of course you attend Hogwarts and know how to work an Undetectable Extension Charm.



2.  T-Shirt & Jeans Bone Floral Velvet Back Pack
Another great bag by T-Shirt & Jeans, and at 13.8" x 11.1" x 5.6", this one may be large enough to carry your school books in.  Some of them anyway.  (Yeah, we've been to school.  We know.)  It's also got a back wall zipper compartment and cell phone pocket slots.  We love that this one is velvet with floral detailing.  It also comes in black.  So cute!



3.  Betsey Johnson Womens Quilted Winged Heart Backpack
Not certain why this velvet black and white skull backpack is called the "Winged Heart" backpack on Amazon, but nevertheless, we love it.  It's moody and magnificent with just enough velvet to fit with the trend, while the backside and adjustable straps are made of faux leather.  This mini backpack also features a faux leather, studded bow as a zipper pull.  This bag measures 9" x 11" x 4" (WxHxD).



4.  VIASA Small Purple Velvet Backpack
You can't beat purple velvet.  I mean, come on, purple velvet is the stuff of royalty, people.  This bag is quite small, so it is definitely not meant to be used for anything more than a purse, but it's purple, so that's really the main reason for buying it anyway.  Carry your makeup bag, cell phone and any other small items you need.  The price is right and, did I mention it's purple?



5.  T-Shirt & Jeans Velvet Back Pack with Pom
Here's another home run by T-Shirt & Jeans.  Why, you ask?  Because not only is velvet big for this season, but pom-poms are also very on trend right now. We love the combination of the tan-colored details in the zipper pulls and straps with the light pink velvet.  It makes this bag feel very fresh and really brings it into the modern age.





6.  Herschel Supply Co. Women's Velvet Dawson Backpack
This Herschel bag is another modern take on the velvet trend.  In fact, we don't see anything '90s about this one, except maybe the name?  A nod to Dawson's Creek, perhaps?  Either way, we love this backpack with its magnetic buckle trim pockets and adjustable straps.  It measures 8.75" x 13" x 6" and also comes in "Windsor Wine."  Very chic indeed.



7.  Jansport High Stakes Backpack - Black Miss Zebra, OS
While most of the others on this list are more purse than actual, usable school bag, this Jansport backpack is 19" x 15" x 3" of heavy-duty, book-toting space.  And, yeah, it's not exactly velvet, but the black zebra stripes are flocked, so we're counting it, okay?  Plus, it's really cute with one main compartment, one front compartment, and 2 interior pockets.  Back-to-School, done right.



8.  Peppa Pig Velvet Children's Backpack
The trend isn't just for big kids and adults!  Even your little ones can get in on the velvet backpack trend with this adorable Peppa Pig school bag.  It's super bright and colorful and comes in your choice of pink or blue.  Perfect for preschool, trips, packed lunches and other outings!  This comes with adjustable straps for ultimate comfort.  Your little piggies will love it.  *SNORT!*
