Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Last week a dress blew people's minds with an accidental optical illusion, this week a bag is doing the same with a very intentional one.
JumpFromPaper makes a range of backpacks that look like the sort of satchels you'd scribble while bored in class, and in similar highlighter-esque pastel neon colours.
While they look flat from front-on, the bags are in fact as roomy as any other, and are already proving popular as a quirky way to turn heads and make an outfit look less serious.
Here's some more shots of them on the street.
And if you're still not convince of their tangibility, a view from the side.
The backpacks, which also include a version for men, cost between $89 and $149 and aren't designed to be taken too seriously.
"JumpFromPaper is a stylish accessory brand designing bags with boldness and playfulness, with an attempt to fulfill everyone’s childhood fantasy," the company says on its website.
"Colorful, quirky and always with a sense of humor, JumpFromPaper stands for the passion to make laughs, and encourages people to let their imagination go wild!"
