Fashion and home decor from the Nineties are back but with a decidedly cooler twist. Many concepts from that decade were a good idea with a less than stellar execution. Take “fanny packs” from the last century, for example. A belt bag that is worn around the waist that was often cheaply made and frumpy looking. They were a staple of many tourists, however, because of the convenience of being hands-free and not burdened by a bag.
Fortunately, our favorite designers today have found many ways to make these bags unbelievably chic and crave-worthy. Belt bags are stylish and very on trend this year.
