As college type bags go, many happen to be gender neutral. This is fine if you’re a college kid, not so fine if you’re a woman that’s looking for a good looking bag that embraces exactly what these bags are all about. For that reason Pursenickety have been schmoozing around the shelves, checking out the best cute backpacks.

We wanted to locate and share the good-lookers, the one’s with chic appeal that cover all the basics that any backpack should – spacious, comfortable and something that will sit out of sight, without looking as though it would be just as happy on a guys back as it would on a girls.

Having spent a few days touching, testing and generally playing around with a few dozen, we’ve decided on three great backpacks for women. Each one is super stylish, gorgeous and not going to cost you the price of an evening out with your girlfriends. On top of that they’re all functional, comfortable to wear (even fully loaded) and, of course ... very very cute.

Bungalow360 Owl Vegan Canvas Backpack

Out of all the cute backpacks we checked out, this one was a firm favorite. It's a canvas manufacture, with a repetitious whimsical owl pattern printed throughout and besides the fact that it looks endearing (more so when you have your hands on it) it's definitely functional with it.

It's a medium sized backpack, not too big but big enough to carry around the usual female paraphanalia; a book or two, makeup, wallet, keys, credit cards etc, and you get a choice of a front exterior pocket or a spacious interior one. You also get a couple of smaller ones, one on the side and a cell phone pocket located on the strap. All the hardware and fastenings are good quality and the lining is white polka dots over a brown base. Very now, very cute and very available.

Hummingbirds Butterfly Butterflies Small Backpack - Cute Travel Day Bag

This is a great looking cute backpack, feminine and girly from top to toe, designed for the woman on the go and very high on both function and features. It's a recommended buy, if for nothing more than the fact that beyond its looks it's incredibly cheap for what it is. Despite its compact size, this backpack is lightweight, fully lined and waterproof.

The straps adjusts in a hot second, there's a cool little removable pocket to the front and a surpisingly spacious interior. The fabric is 100% cotton that's been treated to keep it water tight and even if you were caught in a heavy downpour, the interior of the bag remains completely dry.Overall you're getting awesome quality for the price ... and one of the cutest backpacks around.

Quilted Zippered Backpack Style Handbag - Purple And Pink Poodle

As cute backpacks go, we found this one to be rather kitsch, and that's why we loved it so much. You don't have to like dogs (or poodle's) and the color pink to find this one highly appealing and full of charm. Being quilted it's highly comfortable to carry around, plus it's both lightweight and washable.

There's a good size interior space in the main compartment, a zippered front pocket and two slip pockets situated on the side panels. Either one is big enough for a cell phone, camera or a small handheld device and we like the additional detailing on the zippers. In all a very sweet, appealing backpack, it definitely got the thumbs up in the Pursenickety office and remember ... cute backpacks are just like poodles - gorgeous!
