Over and over, year after year, we idealistically recycle the same old new year’s resolution: drink more water.
But for those of us who haven’t quite nailed the habit of getting in the recommended amount of daily H2o, it can prove to be a struggle.
Luckily, the fashion industry has answered the call of the perpetually dehydrated and designers are rolling out their own (very chic) takes on the drink bottle bag.
Long forgotten since our festival days, the drink bottle bag is a crossbody style bottle carrier that doubles as a stylish accessory. Recently we’ve seen these uber practical pieces grace collections from Jacquemus, Givenchy, Chloé and Marine Serr.
And why is this already the best comeback of 2021? Well, it means that we won’t be forgetting our reusable drink bottles anytime soon, so not only are we hydrated but we also avoid the temptation of single-use plastics.
Fashion that’s good for us and good for the planet? Yes, please.
Scroll through for our top picks of water bottle drink bags that we’ll be donning this summer season.
