I Give It a Week Until Every Fashion Person in NYC Is Wearing This Under-$500 Designer Bag
We pay attention whenever Bella Hadid showcases a new designer item because it’s more likely than not to become a widespread trend. A prime example is the under-$500 designer handbag she recently displayed in NYC. We confidently predict that it will sell out in just a few days and soon be spotted on the arms of chic dressers everywhere.
The bag in question is Coach’s new Empire Carryall 34. With its east-west silhouette, long double shoulder strap, zip-top closure, and distressed vintage-style glazed leather, this bag is the perfect mix of elegance and function. Compact yet spacious enough to hold essentials—think a notebook, mini hairbrush, AirPods, lip gloss, and an iPhone—it's a practical choice for any day. Plus, it comes in three versatile neutral shades: black, chocolate brown, and tan.
On Bella Hadid: Coach Empire Carryall Bag 34 ($450)
Hadid paired the bag with a black long-sleeve minidress, sheer tights, and knee-high boots, but it’s also the perfect accessory to elevate jeans or leggings. Since the last Coach bag she wore, the Brooklyn bag, became the must-have accessory of 2024, this fresh silhouette is set to become just as popular—if not more. Keep scrolling to grab one of the three color options, and if you have the budget, check out other timeless east-west styles to add to your collection.
