I don't really know if it's absolutely necessary to carry a laptop AND an iPad everyday, but for some reason, that's turned out to be a mostly regular routine for me; I tend to sketch and draw on every spare time I've got, PLUS I take notes on the iPad so that one's a must; and the computer, well, some classes at the university require me to upload certain files or open certain others which aren't supported on mobile, and as the cherry-on-top, sometimes I also need to carry around my work laptop, so my giant tote was collapsing and screaming at me to please, stop doing this to my shoulder.
As anyone with a great love towards shopping would do, I took it upon myself to search all te options available that would 1. Maximize space and capacity, and 2. Look as pretty as possible while successfully accomplishing mission 1; and that's how I came across the Himawari Backpack.
It's so spacious I couldn't believe it, and for a great price point (my other candidates were a Herschel or a Fjallraven Kanken) Amazon promised me to deliver it in just a couple of days, task they successfully accomplished.
The colors are amazing, it's the perfect combination of girly pastels and neutrals, and the fabric is pretty resistant and sturdy. The shape of the backpack is exactly as the pictures showed, and it fits way more than I expected a backpack to do. If you don't believe me, here's a list of all that I carry around!
1. MacBook Air
2. iPad Pro
3. Simplified *Daily* Planner (it's huge)
6. Charger & Adapters Pencil-case
8. Kate Spade Sunglasses & Case
5. Pens & Supplies Pencil-case
4. Moleskine A4 Notebook
10. Blog Prompts Notebook
7. Makeup & Kleenex Bag
9. Blue Light Sunglasses
11. Lyric Notebook
13. Folder
12. Wallet
13. Car Keys
14. House Keys
15. Gum
So yes, it's pretty crowded in there but everything has it's place and looks pretty, it's super easy to grab certain things through the secret zipper it has in the back and hey, the computer compartment is great for a folder too. And a little extra always is great, adding a huge pom-pom makes it even more cute.
BONUS: It has an USB port for you to connect your battery to while inside, and charge your phone on the outside, great for on-the-go!
