When it comes to the design of your bag, the possibilities are endless. The plus side is that you don’t have to spend so much. There are many things that you can do to your bag that will upgrade your style without breaking the bank. This is what you call “do-it-yourself” or DIY.

For instance, you can try painting over your backpack, especially if it is a plain backpack. With some acrylic craft paint, you can paint on cotton, leather, and other fabrics. This will not only be your creative outlet, but it will also make you look better.

When you paint on your bag, you can try outlining the patterns using a pencil first before painting on it. To protect the other areas of your bag, you can use a tape to shield it from paint.

On the other hand, if you’re more into monograms and studs, you can also put some on your bag. You can do this by buying studs or rhinestones then stick it on your bag. You can also buy some patches, stickers, or pins that you can stick to your bag. Something as simple as a glue gun will do the trick.

3.Get The Right Backpack For Your Use

Upgrading your backpack doesn’t only mean putting more decorations and designs. It also means making it fit your use.

For instance, if you are working or a student, you definitely need to carry a laptop with you. It’s best that you upgrade your style with a backpack that is laptop friendly. That way, it’s designed to carry your laptop properly while putting you in style.

On the other hand, if you’re a person who loves going to the gym, there are also some backpacks available that are made for that. You can check some well-known brands that offer functional yet stylish backpacks that will be useful for both your everyday life and working out needs as well.
