The all-too-familiar small 90s shoulder bags are back and better than ever. Armed with your lip gloss, credit card and phone (only the essentials) these under-your-arm bags make the perfect finishing touch to any and all outfits.

If Rachel Green and Carrie Bradshaw taught us anything, it’s that no outfit is complete without an incredible purse to match.

From butterfly clips to scrunchies, we’ve seen the revival of many classic 90s accessories, but this might just be our favourite. Short strap, effortless style and small but spacious, the shoulder bag is a wardrobe staple not to hold out on.

Small bags that still fit everything you need for a night out? A girl’s dream.

There’s no doubt the 90s shoulder bag is here to stay, and we’re keen to stock up on the very best. From monochrome classics to stand-out styles, these 90s-inspired shoulder bags will complete every look with a cool and effortless style.

Shop all the best 90s shoulder bags that are gracing the top of our wish lists this season, right here.
