Listen, I'm an NYC resident who is always on the go. The last thing I need in a rush, especially in the winter, is for my bag to constantly fall off my shoulder. I've had one too many annoying morning commutes and overstimulating nights out because my cute but frustrating bags would fall off my coat shoulders.
Your entire outfit should be comfortable, functional, and chic. A coat-and-bag outfit combination is such a go-to for me during the winter, but perfecting the strap-to-shoulder ratio can be arduous. But it's possible—trust me. There's no need to do the measuring yourself because I searched for coat-friendly bags that will get you through the next five months. These bags range from tote bags to east-west bags to classic shoulder bags. They all have one thing in common: They won't fall off your shoulder.
If you're on the hunt for a new coat-friendly bag this winter, keep scrolling to shop all the ones I discovered.
