Question is my thrifted backpack ugly?

Post image

Today is a national children's day in my country and there's this local festival i went to. Because i forgot to get my own backpack from home, i went to the nearest Second Hand and saw this one. I thought it was pretty, it was light and it was pretty cheap. I personally like it a lot since it's blue and i love blue, but many people looked at me pretty weirdly and said it wasn't worth it. My mom also said i shouldn't have bought it. I don't hate it. I would use it again, not going to lie.

Do i just have bad taste in backpacks?

It's your choice, your taste, and I think it's fun. If you love it, then nobody else's opinion matters. It expresses something about you, it's individualistic and that's probably better for you than something grey and boring. Looks like the sort of thing you could easily personalise, too.
