Top 5 Designer Street Style Bags of 2019

 

with 2019 coming to a close, it's time to look back at the top 5 best designer bags of 2019. full disclosure, I'm a street style b*tch, so these bags are the ones that I think are best rocked with a pair of Air Force 1s and the hoodie you stole from your ex-boyfriend...

the multi-pochette accessoires

 this bag from Louis Vuitton ($1,640) is the height of street style bags. the canvas strap, the chain, and multiple bags and the classic LV print gives the urban, utilitarian vibe that we all crave mixed with that sweet, sweet luxury.

ah, a classic. Balenciaga's ($1,790) white on black, minimalist min bag is perfect for most outfits. such a vibe. i love that it looks almost not fancy enough to be designer. the cool factor is at an 11.

another from Balenciaga ($1,390) and though it's new, it's already sold out. the graffiti print is something else. there was a limited edition Gucci print that had graffiti as the main design, and then only thing stopping me from getting it (besides a crying bank account) was that it was mostly pink. no shade, no tea, i'm just not a fan of pinks and pastels, but this one is perfect. you can't get more street style than graffiti.

speaking of Gucci ($1,150), i couldn't make this list without mentioning the classic Gucci belt bag. one of my favorite bag trends for street style is the hands free belt bag (or fanny pack or bum bag, depending on where ya from). this style has come from the upswing of the popularity of festivals in the last decade or so (shout out to me and all my friends ditching school to drive to Coachella). this is retaking "dad on vacation style" one designer step at a time.

finally, the last street style bag on my list, this beauty from Off White ($910). Off White is one of the street style lovers' tried and true brands, which has really only come in to the mainstream fashion market within the last couple of years. again, they keep the colors simple and the patterns graphic, which is a trend for street style bags. they also have a canvas strap like the Louis Vuitton, though it's debateable as to who popularized that first. (most people argue it was off white with their caution tape belt.)
