Looking for a stylish backpack
I’ve spent the last couple of years, taking a Nike backpack to work and it looks okay, but it’s not the most stylish of bags. Recently, I’ve taken to improving my fashion sense, and I’ve gone through some of the guides on the side bar.
I’d like to know what my options are. I know the MFA best of picks, doesn’t seem to feature many British/European brands, for the category of backpacks, outside of Côte & Ciel, which is out of my price range at the moment.
I’ve found some designs I prefer, and I’d like some backpacks with a similar aesthetic perhaps. Stuart and Lau have a Capstone backpack, which looks good, but I haven’t seem many reviews for this, so I’m unsure about the brand.

How to develop a sense of style?
For the past couple of months, I’ve been trying to dress better. Mostly, I’ve been trying to try different clothes, work with a tailor, and see what clothes fit my personality. I work in a traditional occupation, so I can’t dress too casually.
I spoke to a couple friends, and they told me to stop what I was doing and instead try to dress like certain male celebrities. When I told them about certain influencers I follow in the fashion industry, like Hugo Jacomet and Alan Flusser. They told me, that you’d never see Hugo or Alan win awards for how they dress, but you can see loads of celebrities win awards like best dressed man/woman in the world.
Some of the celebrities that were mentioned were Mahershala Ali and Harry Styles. Their comments made me curious, why do we never see people in the fashion industry win awards for being the most stylish man/woman in the world. The likes of Luke Day (GQ editor), Tom Ford, never seem to grace the best dressed people lists..
My question is, what’s a more sustainable approach for a beginner (in the fashion world) to become more stylish? I could hire the same styling company, as some of these celebrities, but would that approach really be sustainable?
