STYLE MIX: TULLE SKIRT & BELT BAG

Every girl wants that Carrie Bradshaw moment, walking the streets in a fabulous tulle skirt that screams look-at-me! (okay maybe not every girl). Today, I decided to have that moment. I wasn’t really going anywhere special, so a plain old tank top did the trick. To update the look a bit, I added a belt bag, which is all the craze this season. Mine is from ZARA. I really like ZARA’s take on the belt bag because it comes with a shoulder strap as well. So when belt bags become outdated (like trends always do), I could still wear it like a normal bag over my shoulders! The strappy sandals featured here are an old favourite from Shoedazzle. I got it years ago so it’s likely not in stock anymore sorry.

So what do I think of belt bags? I haven’t quite made up my mind yet. I think it is brilliant to have a belt and a bag in one item (an updated fanny pack). It can be worn with almost anything you would normally wear a belt with. However, I feel like it is a trend, and will eventually expire as trends often do. In the meantime, I’ll wear it with as many outfits as I can and give my shoulders some much deserved time off (from carrying bags). What do you think about belt bags?
