I’m not proud of it, but I love fanny packs. Now before you pass judgment, I would like to blame this tastelessness on my sorority girl days. When I graduated, my neon green “G Fly” fanny pack was arguably one of the hardest things for me to part with. I mean, why isn’t it acceptable to wear letters everywhere after graduation? JK, don’t answer that. Anyway, my love for these widely despised mom bags can now live out in the open, thanks to one Kendall Jenner. The supermodel stepped out in a turtleneck, mom jeans and a fanny pack while out with bestie Gigi Hadid:
If you can pull off this outfit and not look like a sack of potatoes (like I would), I applaud you. If you can snag a Chanel waist bag like Kenny’s from Ebay or a thrift store, I salute you. But if you’re not ready to take the plunge and adopt this whole get-up (and you don’t have like $1,000 for a mini bag), here are a couple cute dupes to ease you into this retro trend:
Quilted Faux Leather Fanny Pack ($17.90 at Forever 21)
Quilted Fanny Pack ($11.19 at Charlotte Russe)
These bags pack a punch, or something funnier.
