Cute & Affordable Shoulder Bag Trends To Shop
Iconic bags such as the Dior Saddle bag or Fendi Baguette have been around for centuries, and for good reason.
With the re-emergence of 70’s, 80’s and 90’s fashion trends, shoulder bags, particularly, have been making a massive comeback. Practical, versatile and fun, they’re a great way to quickly upgrade your look.
Without breaking the bank, here are some trending shoulder bag styles that you need to hop on:
CHAIN STRAP.
Let’s begin with the coveted chain strap bag— what’s not to love?
Wear it across your body or carry it short-handled if you prefer. Its fairly rigid structure adds to its versatility as it can be taken to both casual and formal events (since it hides any unsightly bulk).
The mix of leather and metal also makes it easy for you to accessorise with matching jewellery and shoes. I typically like complementing the hardware on my bags with matching jewellery tones as it pulls everything together.
Chunky acrylic chain handles have also been seen everywhere, and I think they’re a super cute twist to traditional styles. Their larger-than-life handles make them them the perfect statement piece and can add a lot of interest to an otherwise simple outfit.
To make your chain strap bag yours, tie a scarf around the chain for a personal touch.
PLEATED.
The pleated shoulder bag is all about texture!
If you prefer to let your outfit do the talking, the pleated bag is a wonderful companion to have. The texture makes it stand out in its own understated way.
You’ll find yourself reaching for this bag for most occasions as it can be easily adapted to anything you’re wearing!
HALF MOON.
Finally, the half moon bag is arguably one of the greatest It-bags of all time to have.
The simplicity and minimalism of its look is particularly striking, and you can easily dress this bag up or down.
While it’s great as it is, if you want to make this classic bag more contemporary, consider choosing one with a unique shape or details such as acrylic chains, pearls or fabrics.
Wear it with your jeans for an effortless look, or pair it with a duster coat for something edgy.
