I'm thinking of treating myself to a loungefly bag/ backpack but have never bought one before are they worth the extra money ?? and can you get much inside one ?

For that money (or probably a lot cheaper) you'd get a nice pre loved Kipling one on eBay/Vinted . Or a leather one.
I don't like the Disney one, sorry.

My favourite people are the ones who please their inner child!

Buy the thing that makes you smile

Ignore the things that make you frown

No!
Buy a regular backpack, much cheaper and you won’t look like a twit, for want of a stronger word.

Pair a good happy backpack with a comfortable pair of crocs and it is the winning combination of the year

Loungefly is perceived to be so expensive as you pay for the images, same as other brands as Coach, LV, etc

Whatever rocks your boat

At least loungefly is vegan! Guilt free!

No, The Twits were unkind people, remember the story?

Love backpacks, but don't understand why anyone would want a Disney one. Mine's a lovely colour, has loads of pockets, is just the right size and didn't cost half as much as that one. But if you like it, buy it.

There’s something sad rather than quirky seeing a grown woman with a child’s accessory.
Think of all those Japanese (?) girls/young women you see around London with Hello Kitty or Harry Potter bags etc.
I know it’s a style statement but it does seem infantile.

Loungefly also has wallets!

I'm getting the Bambi one, it's lovely!

Being a self confessed bag-o-holic I would never judge anyone’s choice of bags…

I’ve got an Animal rucksack, love it for travelling it allows me to be hands free and distributes the weight. Tge one pictured looks like a young girls rucksack.

My backpack is plain black, no logos, no adverts, no kiddies’ stuff. Cost a fraction of the OP’s.

My backpack is gorgeous
