Miquelrius gets teens ready for the new school year with this School Chic satchel.
The design, with two young friends, is classic Jordi Labanda. However I can’t say I’m completely behind the slogan below it, which indicates the girls are reading the best ways to keep their boyfriends away from other guys. Here’s a tip; how about spending less time reading glossy mags with your friend and more time on your school work? I’m sure the boyfriend will be much more attracted to a brain than an airhead only concerned with keeping him! I know girls will always be interested in boys, but the design just feels a bit shallow, especially considering its teen target market.
I’m much more impressed with the pretty orchid line drawings that decorate the rest of the bag. They’re probably not enough to carry the bag without the colorful front panel, but they really are lovely.
I can also appreciate the School Chic Satchel’s practical features. Its dimensions are large enough to handle textbooks and other school supplies. The large front pocket is our only organizational aid, but the minimalist main compartment is perfect for holding large items. The back and adjustable strap are also padded to minimize any carrying discomfort.
Its quality isn’t the best, but we’re only paying $40 for the privilege of carrying it. At that price it won’t cost too much to replace once it inevitably falls apart, or its fickle teen owner tires of it!
