Holiday season can be a bit of a challenge when you’re like me and constantly on go mode. Press events, holiday previews, dinners, dates, and then still finding time to write it all up while trying to get some sleep? Yep, it can make the holidays a stressful time of year. However, it’s very important that if I’m going to be on the go, I might as well look cute and have my bags match it! Have you ever been on Fifth Ave, and all of a sudden, your bag rips? Yeah, not a pleasant experience whatsoever.
While on the move, I got to try out Scout bags, which I had heard of and seen before but honestly hadn’t given a second thought. I wanted their OG bag (this is called the ‘DEANO’) and I wanted to pick a print that’s fly but not TOO busy. Y’all, they had almost 40 patterns to choose from, but I went with a nice pattern of blue and white. Again, not too much but definitely a statement bag.
Now, let me just say that this bag surpassed many of my expectations. First of all, it’s HUGE. The size in the photos don’t give it due justice, but trust me — this bag is perfect for carrying all your things while you whisk away in the fall air. I was pleasantly surprised by the size, mostly because I could then throw all my ugly bags into this pretty one and not feel ashamed or blah while walking down the street.
Secondly, the material is sturdy. The bottom is slightly hardened to avoid that lumpy bottom vibe, BUT it’s sturdy enough that you can put a nice amount of things in there before it starts to pile up. While I wouldn’t suggest you put your entire life in the bag, I will note that I used it three days in a row to the brim and I didn’t have any tears or issues. Pretty good for someone like me who tends to throw their bag on the floor once they get in the house.
I’m completely sold on this bag and think that the color variances and patterns make it a super sweet and meaningful gift for someone during the holidays. I saw different prints for everyone I could imagine — mom, dad, bae, family, you name it. Many of them were patterns I could even see for myself on different days. Hey, you gotta switch it up.
Anywho, you can head here if you want to grab my exact bag and all the other offerings on Scoutbags.com. <3
