Oh HELLO! Penneys just got in an €8 dupe for Gucci’s €890 bag

Such a striking piece.

Penneys just took on one of Instagram's biggest 2018 trends... and we're NOT feeling it

Where do we stand on bum bags, guys and gals?

Fanny packs, belt bags – call it what you like but you can’t deny that this once-cringe accessory is now a must-have.

They’re not just for festivals either. We’ve seen bum bags worn with super-sleek street style looks for a couple of seasons now.

It’s a trend that’s been led by Gucci, thanks to its very popular Marmont belt bag.

We adore the Gucci version, obviously, but don’t expect to see us rocking one any time soon.

You could expect to spend €890 on a Marmont and that’s pocket change we just don’t have.

Luckily, the high street is awash with them for the autumn/ winter season. As bumbags are so trendy, they’ll probably have a pretty short shelf life so we’ve been looking for one that’s affordable and eye-catching.

Enter Penneys.

The retailer is looking after those of us on a budget with this striking take on the belt bag trend.

Its version comes in the pattern of the moment, zebra-print, and will really stand out against pretty much any colour.

Best of all? It’s just €8.

We’re off to pick up one now.
