Lamine Yamal's Chanel To Jacob Elordi's Bottega: Celeb-Approved Men’s Bags We're Loving Right Now

For years, the bag was the last thing a man thought about on his way out the door. Not any more. The accessory has become the most telling part of the outfit, and this month's most-watched men are treating it that way.

Here are some of our favorites of the month:

Lamine Yamal – Pink Quilted Chanel Classic Flap Bag, layered with a smaller cream mini flap attached to the front

Every month, this column has one constant, and it's Lamine Yamal. He is a fixture here because he keeps finding new ways to surprise us. This time he carries a pink quilted Chanel Classic Flap with a cream mini flap on its front, as if the original icon needed a companion. The shimmering CC clasp and pink-threaded chain do the rest. It's confident, slightly cheeky, and proof that colour is fair game for men. He is the coolest name on this list, again.

Karan Aujla – Hermès HAC Birkin Multi Pocket Bag

A pop star was bound to be on this list. As we already know, Karan Aujla has an exceptional watch collection, and his bag collection is no less impressive. Recently he posted a very cool shot on Instagram, with a black Hermès HAC Birkin multi-pocket bag resting beside him. The bag is dark, structured and pocket-laden, which suits a man who is always in motion.

Karan Johar – Hermès HAC à Dos Multipockets Backpack

Johar recently dropped a series of pictures that show just how serious he is about his bag game, and every piece is very hard to find. Among the couple of looks he posted, one was head-to-toe black, with an olive bandana at the neck and his Hermès HAC à Dos Multipockets Backpack slung casually over one shoulder.

Jacob Elordi – Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Pouch

Jacob Elordi has long been touted as the man who brought bags for men back and made them cool, and his unbelievable Bottega collection has been the talk of the town for as long as we can remember. He has now been spotted carrying another gem. In the front row in Milan, he kept it simple: white tee, stone trousers, a jacket in his lap and a red Bottega Veneta Intrecciato pouch tucked under one hand. There's no logo, only the weave in a saturated red. It's a small accessory with a very loud colour.

Jude Bellingham – Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandoulière

Bellingham arrives at England's national football centre in a chocolate-brown co-ord, a Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandoulière hanging from one hand. The monogram canvas and cream trim are old-school in the best way, a bag built for departure lounges and also sported by many other athletes.
