Tired of toting around that good ol’ JanSport book bag you’ve had since seventh grade? We thought so! This fall, stride to class in style with these fashionable carry-all options.

The Rucksack

Think of the rucksack as the backpack’s stylish and carefree big sister. Although still a backpack in nature, the slouchy, relaxed rucksack is a great way for those concerned with function to carry books and school supplies in style. As one of fall’s hottest items, rucksacks can be found everywhere this season and at every price point, from Target, to Urban Outfitters, to Barney’s New York. This tribal printed rucksack by Dusen Dusen is one of our top picks. You can pick up yours at Urban Outfitters or online at urbanoutfitter.com. ($129 Urban Outfitters)

The Classic Messenger

The classic messenger bag is and always has been the go-to alternative to the backpack. The popular cross-body is perfect for girls and guys on-the-go. This gray messenger from Moop’s waxed canvas collection is perfect for those who love minimal, well crafted design. The sturdy fabric is constructed to get better with age, like leather or vintage denim, and the surprise pop of the turquoise lining makes this a must-have. Log on to moopshop.com to order one for yourself. ($187 Moop/moopshop.com)
