Outfit hack: how to make the trendy shoulder bag out of your pocket

By Antonia Everding

No bag is as popular this year as the shoulder bag. Celebrated in social media and worn on the streets of contemporary style icons. Instead of having to buy it now, you can easily make your own shoulder bag out of your handbags.

The shoulder bag is the it bag this year. Brought back from the 90s and 2000s, it acts as a compact bag with short shoulder straps. While it was still worn by Paris Hilton on red carpets, the bag can be seen today on the arm of every influencer.

It is usually monochrome and has a subtle look to complement the outfit perfectly. The shoulder bag is particularly popular in the croco look and in the curved half-moon shape. Most of the time, the it bag is not too thick for it to be worn under the shoulder.

But not only under the shoulder, also in the elbow or on the long arm on the hand the bag looks good. This makes the shoulder bag an elegant handbag, which can be worn in everyday life but also for going out. It is small but still more handy than a clutch.

So easily turn your handbag into the new trend

Since trends often go as fast as they have come, it is not sustainable to buy any trend bag. With this simple trick from TikTok, you can still carry the shoulder bag without having to add a new one.

The shoulder strap is simply folded over once and clamped under the base of the closure flap. However, the trick only works if you have the bag a closure flap. Otherwise, the folded shoulder strap cannot hold.

It & APOs; s particularly nice that the bag has two shoulder straps by flapping it. This gives her a unique look. But make sure that the shoulder straps are not too thick, so that two straps side by side do not seem too clumsy.
