Every year, there’s seemingly one style of handbag that takes over the fashion scene. And while we’ve got our staple work bag or our trusty tote, it never hurts to add a fun new addition to your rotation every once in a while. This year, bowling bags have taken the top spot.
Bowler bags started trending earlier this year, thanks to bags like Miu Miu’s Arcadie ($3,850) and Coach’s Swing Zip ($725) having their moments on Pinterest and TikTok. Acne Studios and Charli xcx also hopped on the bandwagon with their first campaign together, wherein Charli posed with the Bowlina Shoulder Bag ($2,700) over her chest.
While bowling bags were originally crafted as a sports bag to carry — you guessed it — bowling supplies, they’ve since received a glow up. Now, they’re adorned with bag charms, come in fun silhouettes, and are a whole lot cuter (and more compact) than the dated bags we once knew. And we love them! They’re sturdy, practical and can fit all the essentials unlike a lot of mini going out bags.
Unfortunately, we can’t all fork out a small fortune on a gorgeous Miu Miu or Acne Studios bowling bag. Thankfully, the trend has trickled down to some more affordable brands, who are putting their unique spin on the sporty-chic piece.
