Purple School Messenger Bags for Girls

Freestyle purple school messenger tote for Girls.
I'm partial to purple when it comes to accessories, and some of my kids love it too. This is one of the fun choices that attracts our attention, perfect for spanning the spectrum where purple is concerned. I love messenger style bags for their crossbody carry style, and I find that many adults really love this, too. Messenger bags work just as well for toting the kids' stuff, making it an option for a busy mom! Of course, my daughters don't want to match with mom all that often, so I'll let them decide on their style, and I'll just admire from a slight distance.

Cute and Colorful Messengers for Girls to Make

My Minds Eye Kit for Making Your Own Messenger Bag for School
If you have a daughter that likes to sew, or if you are sew inclined yourself, this kit from My Mind's Eye is fresh and colorful in bright yellow plaid. My tween and teen daughters have been on a mission to create their own school totes this spring, with tremendous results. It can be challenging, though, to find easy to follow directions and well assembled patterns. A kit like this makes for a fantastic summer project. If you need a sewing machine recommendation, my daughters do really well with a basic Brother, as this is what is used in the 4H programs here. They do really well, in fact!

Animal Print Messenger Bag

The Purr-fect Satchel

If your teen or tween loves animal prints, this design from ModCloth is a fun example of a more elegant look in a messenger.  My teenager discovered ModCloth last winter, and her birthday request was a huge bag from the company.  She loves her bag, and it's crafted in high quality materials and detail, perfect for carrying everything.  The grown up look allows her to appreciate being a senior in high school without having to be stuck with silly selections in backpacks.  Cute styles work for some girls, but if  your daughter is beginning to tend toward a more mature fashion style, then you'll find that ModCloth offers some distinct selections.  Of course, they love to have fun, and you will find some of the cutest accessories and home decor items amidst their collections.  While you are searching for a school bag for your daughter, you may not be able to resist the fun gadgets.
