Ed. obsession under $30: The best BTS backpack

Check these out, too...

  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
  • Trends we heart: Americana
  • 6 handbags every girl should own
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
  • Ed. Obsession: INTERN TAKEOVER: Muscle Tees Under $20
Nothing says BTS like getting a brand new backpack. Even though I’m not heading back to school this fall, whenever August rolls around it still feels like the start of a new year. Thus, I’m channeling my BTS nostalgia and snagging this adorable (and affordable!) neon fold-up backpack from Baggu.

 

In my color of choice, Electric Poppy, it’ll definitely pack a punch to my weekend farmers’ market outings and end-of-summer picnics. Plus, I love how it folds up into a perfect pouch when not in use!

 

Electric Poppy Daypack, $24, baggu.com

Hey girl!

Unfortunately, you can't change your club's name. You can make a new club though! Sorry for the inconvenience!

I was just wondering, what are some essential things to buy for school? (clothes) I made a list of things that I like and want to get, but it's pretty long, so I just need the main things that I should buy. On the list I have 2 pairs of jeans, 1 pair of yoga pants, 1 hoodie, 4 tank tops, and 6 shirts on the list. Is it too little, too much? Thanks, xo




Hey girl!

That sounds like a good list! Once you start school you can decide whether you'd like to get some more clothes or if that's a good amount.

My knees naturally hyper extend and I have soccer thighs
I want to wear skinny jeans but they look weird cuz my knees are set back and then I have my thighs.... How can I balance out the weird look?? I don't want to wear bootcut
Thanks!




Hey girl!

If you wear wedges with skinny jeans that can help lengthen you and balance you out. But honestly, I really doubt it looks weird. Soccer thighs are awesome, so just embrace them and don't worry about it!

Ok so I have thin, wavy hair that gets poofy and frizzy VERY easily. I want to buy a clamp less curling iron so I can work with my hair (instead of against it since I straighten it everyday) but my only problem is when ever i curl or let my hair be natural its very frizzy. I want smooth and sleek hair, what shampoo or product can I use to get nice sleek and smooth hair? ( Ive used silk drops before and it doesn't help, my hair also gets oily)
THANKS SO MUCHHH!!!! <3




Hey girl!

Clamp-less curling irons are great! I use one sometimes. Usually, I put Moroccan Oil or Garnier Leave in Conditioner in my wet hair, blow dry it using a round barrel brush so it's dry and somewhat flat, and then go section by section with my curling iron. Using a holding hairspray will help your style stay put and keep frizz at bay.
