This Loud Bag Trend Has Fully Infiltrated European Women's Wardrobes
It goes without saying that all European women do not dress alike. Distinctive personal style is alive and well on the continent, but that doesn't mean that they don't have similarities in how they dress and the trends they choose to embrace. Bag trends are something that should be carefully considered, in my opinion, as you're likely to wear a bag over and over, and it can be a significant investment.
Recently, the bag trend that I'm finding European women have similar feelings about (that feeling being love) is leopard-print bags, a trend that U.S. celebrities have already been embracing. I've spotted European women styling them with everything from casual weekend outfits to dressed-up special-occasion looks to classic office-ready attire. It just goes to show how surprisingly versatile and wearable the loud trend is. Leopard-print everything is trending right now, but it's bags that Europe-based fashion people find to be the best way to wear the trend.
Keep scrolling to see how Europe-based fashion people are styling their leopard-print bags and shop some of the best ones on the market for your own collection.
European Women + Leopard-Print Bags
I kick myself daily because I didn't invest in this Saint Laurent Le 5 à 7 Supple bag before it sold out.
Another fast sellout was Prada's east-west bag.
A leopard-print clutch with a polished outfit is one of the chicest ways you can wear the trend.
Add a leopard-print bag, like this celeb-favorite Saint Laurent one, to your most casual outfits to give them a boost.
