Sling just one strap over the bluntly and you'll hardly notice you've crossed into backpack territory.
Before donning said tote, here's a swift note on positioning: wear your bag in the centre of the back so the bottom sits just below your waistline. Haggard too high and you look like an eager exchange student, but too low and you take after a sulky teenager - hardly ideal.
