Like many other women between the ages of 30 and 45, I spent the last few years relying on the Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag to haul my necessities around on the weekends. Yes, it was great to be hands-free at the farmers market or kids’ sports games, but now I’m finally ready to admit: It’s too small.
I’m not a minimalist. I’ve tried. It’s not my vibe. I need my hand sanitizer, AirPods, receipts for things that need to be returned, and a snack — but I don’t want to carry around my bigger, bulkier shoulder bags all the time.
Just as I was trying to figure out what my bag options were for the summer, my best friend magically appeared at my house to exchange long-delayed Christmas gifts. (It’s been hectic, OK?) When I unwrapped this bag from Uniqlo, I knew it was precisely what I had been looking for. It’s lightweight, not huge, but still manages to carry so much more than the belt bag.
I’ve been wearing it crossbody style and it’s absolutely perfect. I used it this weekend and it easily contained all my necessary items without me having to stuff it and rearrange it a dozen times.
The bag is perfectly priced at $19.90 and comes in nine colors. It also comes in a crocheted version for $10 more.
