I fell in love with the Fendi bag strap
Fendi bag strap. Hello, gorgeous. Ok so let’s talk about the Fendi bag strap. The first time I saw this strap on the Nordstrom website my heart sang with joy. Then I saw the price tag and my elated feelings turned to immediate depression. Over a grand for a strap?! I could buy a handbag with that money! Listen, I’m no cheap but a grand seems aggressive for a leather strap. I have no problem spending my money on designer fashion BUT I’m also smart about how I accumulate my designer goods.
I immediately took to my tried and true consignment stores. And what do you know? The bag straps were for a fraction of the price! I scooped mine up for around $480 in excellent condition here. I love my authentic pre-owned stores because I save SO much money. You can literally save thousands of dollars on authentic, designer handbags.
Fendi bag strap review
Material
The fendi bag strap is calfskin leather with glazing on edges. Clasps (in my case, silver) are on the ends to attach to your bag. I attached this leather strap to the mini 3 jours handbag.
Sizing
The Fendi bag strap is 35.5 inches in length and 1.75 inches wide.
How to style
The Fendi bag strap fits on the shoulder or cross body. I find it a bit short for cross body BUT it is possible. Just depends how tall you are and your torso length. The bag strap can be attached to any bag that has rings that will hold the clasps. Most of the Fendi handbags are equipped for this. I’m using it on the mini 3 jours handbag. However, you are not limited to Fendi bags. The Fendi bag strap is compatible with other handbags of various designers.
What I’m most excited about
The thing that really gets me going about the Fendi bag strap is how I can change my handbag without buying a new one. I feel like I’m going to buy another Fendi bag strap in the future and swap them out to give my bag a new look. It’s cheaper to buy a (pre-owned) bag strap than it is to buy a new bag.
I love the idea of buying one in another color! A darker one for Winter/Fall and a lighter one for Spring/Summer. They have flower bag straps that would be perfect for Spring and Summer!
Outfit Details
The Striped Sweater
Striped sweaters are everywhere right now! Living in Florida, I balance my sweaters with shorts or jeans if it gets a little chilly. If you live anywhere cold, sweaters are the best to transition from Winter to Spring. So many spring sweaters, including the best Spring sweater I can’t stop wearing.

Black denim shorts
A good pair of black denim shorts is essential. They can last you years and are a capsule wardrobe staple! I invested in a designer pair and feel that it’s worth it so that you don’t have to replace them every year.

Accessories
Wearing the Gucci marmont mules in silver glitter. The best review on the Gucci mules will make you want a pair now! The Gucci marmont belt is a luxury fashion lover staple. I also have one in white. I wear them multiple times a week and have made my money back with cost per wear! The Gucci glitter sunglasses are super extra, if you want to make a statement this summer these are your sunglasses.

Hi Christina! I’m looking to buy the Fendi strap but I’m concerned about the drop length since I’m petite. Just as a frame of reference, how tall are you?
I’m just shy of 5’5. The drop length is a little short on me for crossbody so if you are shorter I think it will be perfect!
