If you’re looking to wear this backpack out and about with necessities in it, I’d say it’s perfect for that, but not school, traveling, or work (ESPECIALLY college). It’s smaller than most backpacks, has 4 pockets (and two side pockets) it still fit my things but didn’t have any more space than that. If you know you don’t have many things you need to put in it, go for it, but if you do carry bigger stuff/ heavier stuff I don’t recommend it, get a bigger more practical one for that. I’d say this backpack was rather created to be cute than very useful. (It can’t fit anything bigger than 12 1/2” by 9” in its biggest pocket or big binders).
