fringe bags
Photo from Polyvore.comWestern hooked up with boho chic and out popped the fringe bag. Celebrities such as Nicole Richie, Kate Hudson, and Vanessa Hudgens have all been spotted carrying these hippie staples, but I gotta say ... I don't love it.

It just seems to be one of those items that are hot for one season and, personally, I don't want to buy a bag just to use for one season. And I don't think I'm fashionable enough to pull off a bag with strings hanging from it. Plus, my cat would have way too much fun with it ... there wouldn't be any fringe left after a week.

From top left, clockwise:

  • BKE fringe purse ($43) from Buckle
  • Stud-detailed fringe hobo bag ($25) from Yes Style
  • Jersey fringe bag in red ($24) from Karma Loop
  • Marta Marzotto leather bag ($35) from Yoox

Are you a fan of the fringe trend?
