As a sixth grader, I had a major fashion moment: I went on a bike ride around our Michigan suburb wearing a Hypercolor shirt, stonewashed jeans and a fanny pack. I felt so cool that I almost felt embarrassed anticipating how much people would be admiring my ensemble.
Who knew that two decades later people would be riding bikes around town and wearing fanny packs? And actually looking cool. This spring, designers are releasing highbrow versions of fanny packs and calling them "belt bags." And they're weirdly appealing. Wouldn't it be liberating to go hands free this summer? You could just bring along some keys, a $20 bill and a lipstick.
Here are a few pretty versions:
leather,
perforated,
camo and
camel.
Would you ever wear a fanny pack? Definitely not? Maybe yes?
