Carry With Confidence: How NYC Girls Elevate Every Outfit with a Bag


Fashion is indeed a form of art, and some bags we've spotted on the streets resemble sculptures more than mere accessories. We ventured into Soho to observe how the girls were carrying and styling these bags, showcasing their bold textures and striking shapes. We've heard that Cult Gaia is making a significant impact with their designs for the season.

1. Winter Runway Look

Not to exaggerate, but we are truly enamored with this look. She paired the Hera Rhinestone Shoulder Bag from **Cult Gaia** with a fur coat, mini skirt, and stiletto boots. The standout element here is the way she combines these pieces. Her accessory choices? Absolutely top-notch. The interplay of brown and black deserves a mention in the style book.

2. A Fur Bag is Always a Must-Have

Wearing white in winter? Completely unexpected yet flawlessly executed. The various shades of white and cream in this ensemble are exceptional, particularly that fur bag. It ties the whole outfit together and exudes winter vibes.

3. A Leather Tied Bag? Yes, Please.

The brown-on-brown coordination in this outfit is something we wholeheartedly support. She’s donning a brown leather bomber coat—think utility chic—paired with blue bootcut jeans, a black turtleneck, and brown boots. And the tied detailing on the structured bag? Simply perfect.

4. Abstract Fashion

Fashion is indeed a form of art, and this bag exemplifies that. The origami-style bag complements her outfit, which includes a cream wool trench, a suede hobo bag, and blue cuffed jeans. The milky boots are a must-have for any year-round wardrobe.

5. Calling all Copenhagen-Style Girls

Upon seeing this look, we instantly thought: straight out of Denmark. The uniquely shaped gold bag caught attention, while the soft, flowy headscarf beautifully balanced the bag’s bold structure. Her foundation? Simple: a leather blazer, blueberry jeans, and sleek boots.

6. Wicker Isn't Just For Summer

We were initially disappointed when summer came to a close and we had to set aside our wicker pieces, but she may have just changed our perspective. Pairing this wavy structured bag with a tan fur teddy coat during winter is undoubtedly a smart choice. It harmonizes all the colors beautifully, particularly with those cocoa brown knee boots.

7. Playing with Patterns

This was the standout piece: the wood-inspired tailored coat. Just take a look at the intricate details: a fur collar, textured leather, and those stylish buttons? The patterned jeans and structured clutch say it all. She has successfully blended Y2K aesthetics with Western influences.

8. Cow Print Is Back

We like to refer to this as: how to be understated yet still embody the it-girl vibe. The cowboy-inspired printed trench coat, when paired with a net-style bag, creates an unexpected combination, but she made it work, and we are somewhat obsessed. To incorporate the grey accents from the bag, she layered a grey wool trench underneath for added warmth and completed the look with a simple white sneaker to enhance the coat.

9. Chrome in 2025?

We believed we had left chrome behind in 2023, but she has proven us wrong. The impact this bag delivers is remarkable. Who needs an elaborate outfit when you possess a statement piece like this? Staying true to the theme, she added a grey trench coat, matched it with light blue jeans, and finished off with a simple yet eye-catching loafer.

10. Wrapped in Warmth

She is making a statement: it is possible to be both comfortable and stylish. Who could go wrong with a mixed fur and leather coat, a suede fur boot, and a chunky knit scarf? Brown symbolizes warmth, and she certainly came prepared. The diverse shades complement one another flawlessly—and the bag? It elevates this outfit from casual errand-running to dinner-ready.
