Our favorite minimalist bag trend is making the rounds again, but we’re making a case for east-west bags to stick around for a while longer!
So what is an east-west bag anyway? Characterized by their elongated shape that is more horizontal instead of a classic rectangle or square shape, they tend to have long straps for easy carrying on your shoulder. Totally effortless and chic, it’s a ’90s-inspired switch-up from the usual bags you might typically gravitate towards.
Our favorites start at just $20 and range up to $233, so there’s something at every price point. From luxe designer picks made of supple leather and suede, to nylon and more, these are the bags you’ll carry on repeat all summer long and into fall.
P.S. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is going on now (and packed with designer finds on sale, of course) and there are a few hidden gems in there as well that we spotted.
Just scroll on to shop our favorite east-west bag picks!
