Two weekends ago, I finally made it down to Champaign (my college town!) for a football game! I convinced Hallieย to come along, she’d never been to the University of Illinois campus. On Saturday morning, we got on the road to make it down in time to tailgate with my parents and little brother before the game! With the mix of my crazy travel schedule and the football home/awayย schedule, I knew there were only two games I’d be able to attend this season. And when you’re leaving the country for a month, it’s usuallyย advised to go hang with your family for a bit before. Right, mom? 😉
Sadly, Illinois lost. Womp, womp. (And why Grange Grove was empty on 30 mins after the game ended!) But my spirits were high just being back on campus and in the football atmosphere! Plus, you know I always take everyย opportunity to sport myย orange & blue. 💙
Davey’sย reached out to me a few months ago and I knew their collegiate collection would be perfect for gamedays this football season and beyond. (I actually got my mom this hoboย bag for her birthday in July!) I chose the crossbody for me personally… I like to keep my hands free at tailgates and games. Plus, no having to set it on the dirty stadium floor!
Davey’sย bags are super affordable, especially considering the leather straps… Most of them are under $100! I love how you don’t have to be too careful with the material since it’s water-resistant nylon, which is perfect for tailgating and a gameday atmosphere! The bags are super lightweight, too. (Which helps if you’re carrying a few beverages inside. 😉)ย Another fun feature for Davey’s…ย You can order a monogrammed gold plate to replace the one that comes on the bag! Let’s be honest, if the option is there, who doesn’t love a monogram? You could even choose Greek letters, which would be such a fun gift for a college freshman whoย is just making it through initiation this fall! (Plus, Greek letters make it easier for sharing with friends, and we all know how much of that goes on living in the sorority house!)
