I've Been Obsessed With Belt Bags Lately

My Favorite Belt Bags On The Market Right Now
Photo via: @cortnebonilla

I never thought I'd say this but: regular handbags can be really annoying. Enter, belt bags. Between walking my quick-moving Yorkie throughout Brooklyn, or trying to wrangle myself together at the check out line, a bag with a top-handle or thin straps that continuously slide off my shoulder grinds my gears faster than I thought it would. During the lockdown, I've become a little more utilitarian — shifting my wardrobe and filling it with things that are both easy to use and fashion-forward, and that's how I came across the belt bag again. This once-ugly trend has been a lifesaver; allowing hands-free movement, jogs, walks and farmer's market runs without the hassle. Ahead, shop the belt bags that I have my eyes on.

From cargo pants to coverall jumpsuits, the utilitarian trend is strong for fall. Model of the moment, Kaia Gerber (flanked by mom, Cindy Crawford, no less) flawlessly demonstrates another take on this ultra-cool style: the army jacket. We can’t decide what looks chicer—an olive-hued blazer dressed up with a skirt and heels, or worn casually with denim and boots. Either way, Kaia’s giving us cravings for a military jacket of our own.

Fashion's latest obsession comes in the form of ease; outfits that can be thrown together in a matter of minutes, but look as though they took days to conjure up. The boiler suit is at the epicenter of this trend. Toss one on with sneakers for a casual day, heels for an evening out or mules for errand running –– either way, it's as chic as can be.

Once we accepted that utilitarian styles and trends were here to stay, we fully embraced them and put all judgment aside. Now, sturdy combat boots, khaki pants (don't picture a park ranger or your substitute teach from middle school please) are spotted at every fashion week. Can these wrinkle resisted pants look cool? According to Samira Nasr, who was spotted at the Haute Couture shows, it absolutely can. Pair them with a comfy white t-shirt, and bow-embellished velvet heels, then pile on the accessories for the ultimate utilitarian-meets-cool-girl look.
