We’ve all been there – the tiny, adorable purse that barely fits your phone, let alone your essentials. While undeniably cute, the mini bag can be a major pain in the, well, everything. So our eyes have been lighting up for a while as we’ve been watching the revival of the big bag - not only for the office day but for days out in town. And who better to showcase this resurgence than the ever-stylish Bella Hadid?
Using NYC's bustling streets as her personal runway, Hadid dazzled us with a week of outfits that ranged from breezy summer capris to itsy-bitsy jean shorts. Amidst her steezy ensembles, one simple standout piece slung across her shoulder grabbed our attention, however: the bag. In particular, the Coach Brooklyn 39 shoulder bag. We've already seen the supermodel carrying the super slouchy black version, but in a nod to the boho revival Hadid stepped out in the new suede tan version, the perfect autumn/winter '24 accessory.
Hadid has declared the end of cramming everything into tiny receptacles, opting instead for the spacious and stylish Coach Brooklyn Shoulder Bag - the perfect blend of fashion and functionality, with its slouchy shape offering ample room without looking overly bulky. And not to get technical but the bag’s balanced handle-to-shoulder ratio ensures comfortable carrying without sacrificing on style.
This type of bag would be typically reserved for office attire, Hadid defies convention by pairing hers with Daisy Dukes for a trip to the countryside and a fun graphic 'Here Comes Trouble' tank top and vintage 1999 Gucci leather pants for the city, proving that a large bag can accompany any look, whether casual or dressed-up.
