Baguette bag in vintage style
The 1990s were the golden age of the baguette bag. It was a time of fashion experimentation – outfits were either shocking or extremely simple. A white T-shirt, distressed jeans, sneakers, and of course… a baguette-shaped bag, available in various sizes, materials and often decorated with eye-catching details. The vintage-style baguette bag is still a hit today. The smart casual or bold and relaxed urban look are the best companions for this type of accessory.
Casual or elegant? What defines a baguette bag?
Timeless wardrobe items are those that match everything. The elegant baguette bag, as befits a '90s fashion trend, is one of the best accessories for a business look. You can take it to work, an exam, or a formal meeting. On such occasions, a black, beige or other universal colour baguette bag is your best bet.
However, baguette bags are not typical classic-style accessories. If you're wearing an oversized sweatshirt, leggings and comfy shoes, you can throw a decorated baguette over your shoulder and instantly elevate your casual outfit. A medium-sized baguette bag is roomy enough to carry everything you need for spontaneous city outings.
Baguette bag – how to wear it?
The way this unique accessory is worn relates to its name – the baguette bag is carried over the shoulder and held at rib height, like a baguette under the arm of a French woman. Milanese style has reached us too, making the baguette bag a universal and increasingly popular accessory. Compared to other styles, baguette bags have a medium-length strap. No matter which design you choose, you can wear it on your shoulder, carry it in your hand, and easily set it down whenever needed.
