Here, I’m using the Anouk belt bag by Akris, in black metallic pebbled leather. You understand I’m far much more dedicated to ageless classics than fleeting patterns in our email inboxes, however for me the Anouk belt bag feels different. I feel like… it’s not going anywhere—except anywhere I take it attached to my midsection. (Side note: I have a belly again, YAY.)
Another reason I feel positive in this specific bag is its versatility, so you can invest easy.  The metallic leather is a fun method to flavor up a laid-back daytime look, however its shift to evening-wear is even much more seamless. Obviously, it works remarkably as a belt bag, as I’ve styled here, however it can likewise be used cross-body with an broadened strap. To gown it method up, the strap detaches, as well as the bag becomes an envelope clutch. You understand exactly how much I like a great multitasker, and this, my friends, is a extremely great multitasker.

I’ve always liked hands-free options, however because ending up being a mom, I feel like hands-free as a perk just ended up being a main purchase incentive. You mean, I can bring whatever I requirement as well as likewise have both hands to handle the logistics of me as well as my small in as well as out of cabs, coffee shops, the pediatrician, as well as back house again? Take my money as well as run. 
There’s likewise a fun chance to mix volumes when working with smaller belt bags this fall. It’s the ideal waist-cincher to layer over an large blazer or a voluminous gown like the one I’m using today. The statement sleeves as well as cinched midsection provide beautifully wearable volume to this Rosie Assoulin dress, as well as by “belting” the gown with the Akris Anouk bag, I’m producing balance (and likewise having a bit fun). The sharper edges to the bag, sandals, as well as even the shades I’m using right here likewise provide a good contrast to the cloud-like nature of the dress—it’s all about balance.
You’ve likely already got your work bag circumstance in hand for fall. So take this chance to look into a statement-making bag that’s likewise going to offer you versatility, practicality as well as polish throughout your closet. I’d start here if I were you.
