Yesterday, I met up with beauty blogger Toby of Posh and Spicy to do a photoshoot in Dumbo, Brooklyn. Since the kids are out of school this week, I had to bring them along with me. I knew that I wanted to explore the area with the kids after Toby and I wrapped up and I wanted to be as comfortable as possible. The first thing that I thought of were my feet of course, so I threw on my Converse sneakers and the second was the bag that I was going to carry around. I have issues with my back and carrying a regular handbag on one shoulder is not the best thing for me because it throws off my alignment. I’m sure many of you have the same issue where you can literally feel yourself veering off to one side…hehe.
This is where the Hazlmay backpack comes in handy. What I love about this backpack is not only that it’s a pretty grey color but the size of it. It fits everything including my DSLR camera plus an extra lens! It leaves both of my hands free especially when I need to tend to the kids like tie a shoe lace for example, and not having a handbag swing down my arm to the floor, haha. The faux leather is also pretty sturdy so I know that it will last a long time. You can check out Hazlmay’s website here and the Angela Woven Backpack via this link.
