One of the biggest trends for autumn winter 2018 have been belt bags, or better known as the bum bag. This 90’s revival got a high fashion update with everyone from your favourite bloggers to your most stylish friends sporting one. I remember sharing one of my first belt bags about 2 years ago now in this post so when I saw that everyone wanted to know how to wear a belt bag, I was so excited to get my new Prada one out! The best part about these bags is that there are so many different ways to wear them. You can wear your belt bag with jeans, over dresses and even over your jacket. Here are my favourite ways:

1. Wear your belt bag as a crossbody.
I like to sling my belt bag over my shoulder to wear it like a cross body for a more model-off-duty look. I love how easy it is to wear it this way and this is the easiest way to style it with any outfit. Try this way with your next sweater and jeans combo for an instant update to a go-to look.

2. As a waist belt
You can wear your belt bag with your jeans as a belt or over looser dresses as a waist belt. It’s a great way to add some definition to your outfit so that you look taller too! I used it here to make this loose dress more fit.

3. Over your favourite jacket
You can wear your belt bag as a winter accessory that you don’t have to hide away! Wear it over your favourite blazer for these chilly autumn days and as you move to your winter coats, belt it over your straight fit coats (like this one) for a really cool winter outfit!
