Two of my favorite things collide in today’s post – my love for the power ‘shorts’ suit this season and all things Timbuk2.
This past winter I had the opportunity to partner with one of my favorite brands, Timbuk2, to host a local event for friends and fans. If you’re not familiar, Timbuk2 is San Francisco based company with a strong passion for inspiring urban mobility, enable mobility, and promote responsibility. Â Since being introduced to the company I have been in love with their positive energy, their mission and their unique, quality products. Â
I have been using a number of their bags and products for the last year or more.  After last Fall’s event I have a number of friends who are also more than in love themselves.  Shawn and I both use their luggage roller for travel (the wheels are made out of skateboard tires which makes the movement of the bag flawless and smooth), as well as their Wingman Carry-On Travel Duffel .  He and I both are all about packing for trips in a solid carry-on bag to ensure we never lose our luggage (again!).  Both of these bags are really well designed with great compartments and made from solid materials.
I also do not go anywhere without my Snoop Camera Bag Insert which holds all of my camera essentials and fits perfectly inside a number of Timbuk2 customer backpacks and totes. Â I’m also so in love with the Blue Bottle Weekender Travel Kit which is perfect for any Summer picnic or date-night under the stars.
For more of my every day essentials, I carry FEMME Messenger bag to the office every single day – literally. Â I LOVE the clean, modern look with the faux snake skin details. Â It takes me comfortably from day to night flawlessly. Â But, as an avid lover of Timbuk2 products, and someone who wants and needs a bag that is as functional as it is stylish, Â I was so thrilled to create a completely custom backpack that I could also use at the office as much as I could on the weekends.
The Custom Prospect Backpack can be completely customized by you.  From the side and front panels, to the piping to the color of the Timbuk2 table you can create a truly one of a kind bag that meets your style needs.  I chose a black and white look with water resistant material.  I wanted only the top and bottom panels to be a more mesh material to give it a sporty, but sophisticated look and feel.
Which Timbuk2 custom backpack would you choose? Â What design would you opt for?
Before you go, can we all chat about the Summer short suit set?  Is anyone else as in love with me?  For the corporate girl, I love transitioning my corporate, day-time look into a classic pulled together look for he evening with a quick switch of pants to shorts.  Not to mention, both pieces are versatile to wear separately 100 time over.  Are you also in love this season?
Hope you all had a great weekend! Â XOXO

Love this outfit!! I used to carry packpacks all the time in college, I had a long champ and a prada one that I lived in and then I drifted away from the them but last year I found myself loving them again! This one is so perfect!

Girl you are rocking that suit! Makes me want to dig mine out. Haven’t put suits to use much since I no longer work in a courtroom.

You and me both, Tamara! I really think my heavy totes are killing my back 🙂 I am so getting old.
I have been on the hunt myself! I think I found a really cute one at Loft over the weekend which I am going to give a go next week. I also saw a cute one on Gal Meets Glam from Ann Taylor 🙂 She looks cute in absolutely everything though! Hope you’re having a great start to the week! XO
Such a fun and chic backpack! Definitely going to look into this company!
