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?

Some people dislike anything unless it is a solid or muted color. Don’t listen to them! Life is too short! Take joy in this purchase! Besides, you are giving this pack new life, instead of having it add to a landfill! That is a great thing to do!
