Man On The Move: A Purse For Men
Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2022
What do you do if you don’t have pockets in your jacket or slacks? Probably you’ll have to carry a bag. Typically men don’t stray far from a neutrally-colored rugged backpack or messenger tote when picking a bag to carry. However, this spring, brands such as Giorgio Armani are presenting flashy patterned tote bags as a sutable alternative to the usual bland sacks.
Style Advice: To achieve the effortless bag-carrying fashion style seen in the Giorgio Armani spring/summer 2022 runway show, wear a men’s Dot jacquard stretch t-shirt ($95) from Nordstrom under a navy PowerSoft Coze edition zip-front jacket for men ($50) from Old Navy. For pants, wear navy blue stretch weekday warrior dress pants ($99) from Bonobos. On your feet, go with Bordeaux Crispo leather loafers ($140) from Calvin Klein. Finally, carry a blue and black Sunset jacquard fabric bag ($2,150) from Fendi.
Matching your outfit to the bag is a stylish decision. It gives the bag purpose and makes it a part of the outfit. An easy way to do this without having millions of different bags to go with all your various outfits is to buy a patterned bag with colors that match your wardrobe.
Must Have: If you would rather carry a more modest-colored cross-body bag to keep your possessions close as you weave in-and-out of pedestrian traffic, Louis Vuitton has a bag for you. The Christopher XS ($19,000) bag is made from fine Taurillon leather and consists of multiple side pockets and snaps to hold all your belongings. According to the Louis Vuitton website, the bag is large enough to hold a wallet, two phones, and a couple other smaller essentials.
