As bag collectors, we have bags for every reason and every season, and when the temperatures begin to rise we know just what to do—reach deep into storage and pull out those seasonal carries. From white bags and raffia, to pretty pastels Winnie The Pooh 11 Mini Backpack.
Switching your bag out to match your outfit or jazz up your look is fun, and even expected, when you’re a collector, but I’m the first to admit I forget (ok, ok I get too lazy) to switch my bags often. When a bag seems to work with all of my outfits or feels easy to wear, I get super lazy and end up grabbing and going without really thinking whether or not I’ve got a bag that will work better. And lately I’ve been favoring one of my more utilitarian pieces: Backpack Reebok Act Core Ll Bkp M HD9905 Batblu.
While it’s not the most stylish, or even fun bag I own, it is without a Golf the most functional and durable bag I own by far. Having a puppy was a Women game changer for me and though he doesn’t require me to carry much (other than water in the summer) when I’m out and about with him, he does require a lot of attention and having my hands free is a must!
The bag itself is large and I can fit my sunglasses in the case, my small wallet, spray hand-sanitizer and a small cosmetics case with various items. I’ve been going to the park a lot more and spending a lot of time outside, which makes the nylon material ideal for the super hot city temps. Nylon can easily be wiped clean or sprayed with a fabric spray, and as the belt bag sits close to my body a refresh can be necessary (I like Medium 4g Bag In Black Box Leather With Silver Chain for my nylon bag). I’ve been living this entire summer with Backpack Reebok Act Core Ll Bkp M HD9905 Batblu like my second skin.
Boss Black Wash Bag!
Gucci Soho Disco – it fits everything I currently need to run around and is cross-body. Hands Free!
I’d love to know if there are any other bags out there that fit as much and aren’t bigger. I’ve been looking around, but so many of them are SO SMALL inside!
I’m so broke right now I’ll take anything 🙁
Mc2 Saint Barth watermelon print beach bag!
Atm I’m loving the OG Fendi Baguette, idk why but I just prefer it to the new design. So glad it was reissued!!!
I’ve been using my Coach Cassie, JW Anderson Pierce, and Chloe Paratay. Easy grab and go bags and easy to go from one to another.
Victoria Beckham Half Moon and The Row Drawstring Backpack. Fit all I need and some. Plus hands free!
One pocket at the front of the travel bag!
Bottega mini pouch (dark dark teal), Gucci Marmont Camera bag (black), Valentino rock stud mini hobo (brown) Post pandemic (that is really still going) I am still team small bag. I have managed to have my small wallet, key, and phone as my contents. Not sure how to fill a tote now.
Oooh I LOVE the dark teal! Great choice!
Hermès garden parties in canvas. Light, easy, and happy bags for sure!
Manu Atelier Cylinder-shaped shoulder bag Blue.
Pretty much going small and crossbody, so I’ve been alternating between my black Gucci Soho Disco and blue Gucci Ophidia Dome small shoulder bag. If it’s a situation where Gucci might be overkill or call too much attention, I use a burgundy Kate Spade Kourtney camera bag I got on clearance from the surprise section of the KS website.
im waiting for the versace la medusa to go on sale, and snatching one up, i really like that one and i feel its being under rated and no is talking about it, normally i would jump on them at full price but i feel they dont hold its value and they always go on sale sooooo ill wait for it to go on sale lol
Always and forever, my Chanel rectangular minis. The perfect size crossbody bag for me, and since they’re in caviar leather, fairly stress-free. 🙂
