Good looking backpack for commuting

Hi guys,

Hoping you can all help with some recommendations for stylish backpacks that will work for my commute (2.5hrs each way on trains/walking) and hold a 13" laptop.

I've been having a lot of trouble with my neck, back and accompanying headaches and think my days of shoulder bags are over. I've looked over some old threads and can see things like thr Fact + Fiction Charli, Sandqvist, aspinalls etc. suggested previously so just after some up to date suggestions. The Sandqvist and Aspinalls are a little out of budget perhaps.

I love the Charli but is it REALLY comfortable or is it more fashion focused?

Thanks in advance.

@TigerBreadAddict - thank you very much for the Accessorize link.

I was looking for a 2nd backpack, a fun one, and I liked the range in Accessorize (would never thought of them without this thread).

I got this one for the grand total of £9.60

I already have a very robust backpack for laptop / work where its contents would survive being hurled off the top of a building and wanted something a bit less rigid and work like - so it did the trick!

I have a pacsafe high security one great if you commute and work in Central London. Not particularly beautiful though ...
