The Return Of The Fanny Pack

In Nigeria, at the NYSC  camps, it is like a requirement to keep all your small personal effects as close to you as possible during the drills before some people will rip your bag in the room and make away with your valuables. The best way to do this was to carry a fanny pack around your waist.  We use to call it  the waist bag.

It was not unusual to find people going about back in the day with it. Who would have thought that it would come back as a big fashion accessory in 2014. Even seen on runways. Givenchy, Burberry and others had various luxurious versions down their spring runways.

The big designers are crafting into it indeed, while the big celebrities are making it happen.

They are much more sleek and stylish as well as more superior to the nylon styles of before that had the dome shapes. They are available in numerous colors and fabrics.

A trick to pulling it off, is to let the bag hang at the side not the front.

Is this a trend you think you will rock? Personally i would. They are tres chic and can come in handy especially when you are on the move.
