Fanny packs for the 21st century
The fanny pack is back! This 80s classic is no longer just for American tourists. In the last few years, waist bags have become a major fashion statement. Don't think you can just dust off your mum's old fanny bag from decades gone by, though. The days of brightly coloured, nylon women's fanny packs are well and truly over. Instead, you'll want to look for modern styles. Edgy leather with silver metallic details, hippy-inspired multicoloured designs, and sleek, sophisticated patent looks are just some styles that have taken off. It's the new evolution of the bum bag, and there's something for everyone to try.
Choosing the right fanny pack
Belt bags have become an extremely common sight. You can now find as many types of fanny bag as shoulder bags – so you're bound to find something to suit your style. Think about practicality when you're choosing your waist bag. Some have just one large compartment, while others have several small pockets; this can be a more practical choice for some women. Choose a women's fanny pack that will suit your lifestyle, and make sure you think about the type of clothes you tend to wear. A bright, colourful bag may look fun on the rack – but if you wear a lot of prints and patterns, it will clash. A good rule of thumb is to match a colourful bag with plain clothes, and vice versa.
Styling a fanny pack to look cool
Despite the name, belt bags don't have to be worn around your waist. Of course, you can loop them around like that – but if you're going to wear yours that way, don't pull it too tight. A slightly looser, more casual style slung around your hips will help keep the dreaded tourist look at bay. There are other ways to wear women's fanny packs, though. You can throw yours diagonally across your torso, or loop it over one shoulder like a handbag. These are fun ways of playing around with this classic style, bringing it firmly up to date for the 21st century. Make sure you match your belt bag to the type of clothes you tend to wear. Whether you're preppy or grungy, choose one that goes with your personal style.
