Bag charms are officially one of the biggest —and I couldn’t be happier about it. You might associate these whimsical accessories with Jane Birkin, who famously adorned her bags with tokens she collected throughout her life, and now absolutely everyone is getting in on the accessorizing of accessories. From chic chains draped on handles to colorfully campy keychains, these tiny adornments have been spotted on the arms of models strutting down the runway at shows like Coach, Fendi, Miu Miu, and more.
And off the runway, bag charms have been trending on TikTok, where they’re proving that even the tiniest detail can elevate an entire outfit. Seriously, Jane Birkin-ifying your bags has become the ultimate fall to add a little personality to your favorite purse or tote. Let’s be so for real, fashion has been a bit exhausting lately.
With trend cycles rising and falling so rapidly, it’s increasingly difficult to keep up with single microtrend that pops up (...
and it's very unnecessary in my book). More and more people are opting out of this unsustainable route and focusing instead on fine-tuning their own personal style. That's why bag charms seem to really be meeting people where they are—switching up a little something about their look with a small accessory instead of changing up the entire vibe.
