Ed. obsession under $30: The best BTS backpack

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!

When I went on vacation to where I always go, this little small town has these cute shops and there was this one that had these bags but they were the totes instead of backpacks but I bought one and I love it. I don't like this color they have but the colors the store had were so pretty. They had this really nice teal but both my sisters had it and I decided I should probably get a different color so I got hot pink even though I am not a fan and ended up loving it. I got it to be school bag haha, what a coincidence.

This year, I'm prob. using the same pack I used last year, and it's not that great a pack. What should I do?

MOD MOD MOD MOD,
What bottoms can I wear on my first day of high school (besides short shorts because of dress code against them)that will show off my long and newly-tanned legs?




Hey girl!

Shorts are fine but you just need to find a pair that hits a little more mid-thigh than short shorts. You could also wear a cute skirt or dress that's an appropriate length too!

i start middle school next year and i want to carry around a bag but we arent aloud to carry backpacks during school only too and from. any ideas?? thanks in advance




Hey girlie,

Since it's a school rule, there's not much wiggle-room here. Try snagging a great messenger bag or shoulder tote so carrying books to/from school is a breeze. Then, grab a little cross-body purse that you'll keep with you all day. You'll carry your books between classes, but this will also help you bring pens, pencils, your phone, lip gloss, pads/tampons, etc. with you all day long. As long as purses are allowed, this is def the way to go!

I am going into sixth grade next year, and I am so nervous! I just have to go to SO many classes, and I only have 4 minutes to get to them, there is bullies, and I don't know what to do! I'm scared I'll get LOST, or something! What if I am late to class? And what if I can't open my locker, and what if my locker partner is messy and/or mean? Aggghhhh!!!!

Hey girl,

First of all, relax! It's going to be fine! I'm sure you'll make plenty of friends, and even if you do get lost on the first day, I'm sure a lot of other people will too, and you'll find your way around in no time. You'll get the hang of your locker, and if you have a problem with your locker buddy you can talk to a teacher! Lucky for you, we have a ton of posts about new school, because tons of girls feel the same way you do! Check out these posts for more tips! http://www.girlslife.com/tag/new-school.aspx

ok so ive been wanting a phone. i found one of my older sisters old phones in a desk drawer at my house. and its not the best phone but it will fit my needs. my mom said i could have it to "play with" scince its not activated. i asked her if she could activate it, but she said no cuz she doesnt want to pay $10 a month scince we are tight on money. im only 11 so i need a way to make about 10 to 15 bucks a month. i obviously cant get a job and im not ready to babysit. any ideas to make that much each month? thanks! xoxo ~Ryleigh

 

Hey girl, maybe doing yard work for neighbors? Or maybe you can convince your mom to get an allowance?

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.

I actually do own this backpack. It's a leathery texture and it comes in adorbs colors, which I like. But, I wouldn't recommend it for school, because the pockets aren't very big. It's still a great bag though. It's carries my makeup, wallet, phone, glasses case, and notebook. For size reference, it's about the size and depth of a three inch binder.

i got a bag like this but im worried that my stuff wont fit through the opening. im starting high sschool and we are using computers so idk if we will have books to take home or have to take the computer home. do you think i will have too big of books? do you know if i have to take my computer home? what if it wont fit??? thanxTong kinda worried bout high school(its huge)lol

 

Hey chica! Every school is different, so I don't know whether you'll be taking books or computers home.  Chances are, unless you are buying a laptop for school, you won't be taking it home.  Books in high school tend to be big, but you might not be expected to take them home, so you might want to have a back up bag just in case your backpack doesn't work out.  xoxo

Hi! Ok, so I'm going bowling later with my besie and a couple of other friends. And some of them are going to be guys, one my crush. So any advice of what I should wear? Thx!!!

 

Hey babe! Bowling shoes don't look good next to, well, anything, so keep your outfit cute, but toned down.  Try a pair of loose or bootcut jeans and an adorable tank or tee.  Avoid rings, they'll only get stick in the ball.  Instead, try layering a couple cuff bracelets and finish it off with a cute scarf. xoxo

Hey, MOD, I could use some help. I was invite to the birthday party of my really good friend. The only problem is that I'm only good friends with three of the girls she invited, and there's a lot of girls that I've never really talked with, and I'm nervous that I'm gonna be left out. Any advice ? Thanks Smile

 

Hey chica! If you have 4 friends there, chances are you won't be left out. Be open to making new friends! Make sure you include everyone in what you and your friends are doing and I'm sure they'll do the same for you.  Plus, if she's a really good friend, I'm sure her other friends are awesome, too! xoxo

It's perfect for going somewhere. But I wouldn't wear it to school because it looks like it doesn't have a lot of pockets to hold all my supplies especially pockets on the side.

MOD MOD MOD,
I'm going to a pool party tomorrow. Can you suggest some cute and easy hairstyles to do for the party, that still look cute after I take a swim? Thanks so much! Smile

 

Hey girl! Try to make your hair as low key as possible, since most hairstyles will droop after they get wet.  A french braid will stay put while your swimming and looks adorable wet.  xoxo
