THE BAG
If the term “fanny pack” or “belt bag” brings to mind a pouchy, battered leather version of years past, it’s high time you take another look at these hands-free handbag alternatives. This year’s hottest bags feature eye-catching design elements and embellishments, like the stylish studs on this Valentino Garavani Rockstud Matelassé Leather Belt Bag, which pretty much ensures they look nothing like the (often-hideous) packs you’re recalling. $1,940 | Nordstrom
