One of my first designer bags is the Gucci waist belt bag in brown signature GG fabric which i still use often today and is indeed one of the best investments I ever made. Tom Ford created the two-compartment belt bag for Gucci in  early 2000s and after Sarah Jessica Parker was seen wearing it in a few episodes of Sex and the City, it instantly became an IT bag. The chic remains one of the house’s classic pieces,  reinvented in variety of materials season after season. I am not a big fan of the GG Crystal in any color and I think this piece does not look as classy as my classic brown piece but trust me when i say no other waist belt bag out there is comparable to this Gucci classic. Before this, a waist belt bag is more to a fat, clumsy fanny pack used by tourists. Available at Gucci for GBP320.
