How to Layer Your Bags

· From daily commutes to weekend trips, it’s not always possible to fit everything you need into one carryall.
· For the moments when life calls for more bags, lean into a few key styling tips.
· Read on for how to layer your bags with confidence, plus a few bag duos that never fail.

Carrying more than one bag at a time doesn’t have to negatively affect your style—so long as you know how to layer them to work with you instead of against you. Whether heading to your internship in the city or packing up for a quick weekend getaway, there are certain occasions that require more space, more separation and more flexibility than one bag alone can offer. Below are styling tips to keep in mind when life calls for that extra bag, plus a few bag duos that are anything but bulky.

Tips for Layering Your Bags

Balance Proportions
Balance your silhouette by carrying a larger, expandable bag for primary storage on one side, and adding a compact, structured bag for your smaller essentials on the other.

Choose Complementary Colors
Go for a tonal look with bags of the same color that match your monochromatic outfit or stick to neutrals that go with anything and everything to avoid any clashing.

Mix & Match Textures
Choose bags of varying materials or textures—like leather and denim—to add dimension and depth to your look on the go.

The Best Bag Duos

Oversized Carryall & Crossbody Bag
Taking a quick day trip? Pair your oversized carryall with a crossbody bag for an ultra-functional duo that won’t overwhelm your frame. With your tote hanging over one shoulder and your crossbody leaning snugly on the other side, you’ll forget you’re carrying multiple bags.

Backpack & Wristlet
Whether commuting to work or heading to class, there are moments you need easy access to all your smaller essentials on the go. Pack your backpack with your bulkier items (like your laptop and notebooks) and carry your card case, phone and keys in your wristlet so you don’t have to take off your backpack mid-trip.
Pair: Coachtopia Loop Mini Backpack and Plaza Bag

Refined Shoulder Bag & Top-Handle Bag
Preparing for a weekend getaway? Wear a structured shoulder bag with all the essentials on one side and carry a top-handle bag with your favorite looks on the other to create a balanced, proportional silhouettethat’s both convenient and stylish.
Pair: Tabby Shoulder Bag 26 and Soft Empire Carryall Bag 28
