3 Ways to Wear a Hip Pack

Herschel Hip Pack

I don’t know how time is flying by so fast but I’m officially taking off tomorrow to the Balkans which is blowing my mind. I’m still a bit sick and have woken up today to my left eye swollen up so that it’s like half the size of my right eye but I mean, what’s a better fix for your body generally refusing to get better from a cold than the heat and sun of Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia & Herzegovina? I’d like to think nothing, though maybe an actual medical professional would disagree.

Speaking of travel, I wanted to share more details on styling this Fifteen Hip Pack from Herschel because on my back-end, I was really surprised to see how many clicks there were to it in my travel essentials (2019 edition) guide! The hip pack (or fanny pack) has had such a redemption story as far as style goes, going from a touristy faux pas to a bonafide trend, and with cute styles like the Fifteen Hip Pack, it’s easy to style up with any outfit. Here are 3 chic ways to wear it now!

Stylish ways to wear a fanny pack

The Updated Classic

Usually a hip pack is worn around, well, the hips, but I love it around the waist to cinch in a dress or jumpsuit. It’s somehow feminine and super functional – could not get easier to access your stuff!

The Cross-Body

Simply let out some length in the strap and you can wear it cross-body, which is not only really cute with a jumpsuit or dress like this one, but with a casual look of skinny jeans and a t-shirt or something along those lines.

The Handbag

It’s not particularly inventive, but if you’re not into wearing it cross-body (which I get, as I’m chesty and after awhile it kinda feels like it’s doing an unfortunate seatbelt-effect on your boobs) or don’t have an outfit that you want to wear it in the classic way, just sling it over your shoulder! As easy as that.
