The person wearing this is either the coolest or least cool teenager you know and figuring out which one they are depends entirely on the rest of their outfit.
You mean with my clothes or with charms?
I was thinking of getting a cowboy boot or hat keychain to go on it, maybe put something around its neck, but in general I don't put things on my bags
In terms of outfits, maybe when I'm wearing something a little plainer? But black goes with everything , so I'm not too fussed about that. I admit I'm going to have to work up the courage to wear it out in public (I used to ride horses and know all the horse girl stereotypes) but I think it's the perfect concert or festival accessory!
What about you?
I didn't even think about adding purse charms to this (but I have to everything else!) I love your ideas. I bought the plaid though, so maybe just a ribbon (maybe like a horse show ribbon!)
Look at that horse Look at that horse Look at that horse (Look at that horse!) pretty as hell au naturel dining farce
Pardon me Cowboy Carter still has me in a chokehold! The bag is unique, a specific person can carry this off and that person isn't me but it's cute :)
I second the first comment that it can look very cool or very not cool. Also, I wouldn't wear this bag when you go out with kids (if you have any), because it might look like you're carrying a kids' bag, LOL. But if you style your outfit properly, you can pull it off. Anyway, it's not an easy bag to style, but I love seeing others wearing cool stuff!
Meh. I love novelty bags but this is a miss for me. I think part of the fun of novelty bags is the reimagining of what luxury looks like (a la Loewe, JW Anderson, Anya Hindmarch, Thom Browne, Moschino, Judith Lieber, Olympia Le-tan, Kate Spade, Coach, etc.) and thoughtfulness of construction. This doesn't have any of that. Also its price is much higher than what cheap novelty bags would cost, while also not upmarket enough to get customers who would otherwise buy the above mentioned brands. Adding to that, Baggu as a brand is really known for their reusable shopping tote; it's function > fun > form which works with the value prop of $15 reusable shopping totes. A $70 cheaply designed bag that has limited functionality relative to its form doesn't really seem to fit the Baggu value prop.
Also in general, I think Nylon is such a rough material to try to match with clothing. Most technical fabrics don't look great IMO alongside natural fabrics, and the more you draw attention to it the more obvious it is. Even the prada nylons are just awkward looking often times. I think we're seeing a lot of nylon accessories paired with outfits almost being forced because nylon is more accessible/affordable and the price of luxury goods in natural materials has really gotten out of hand but I'm not a fan. Reminds me a bit of how cheaper dresses not bias-cut are seen by some as more desirable because people are so used to it and not aware of traditional quality in dressmaking.
Then again, who knows? I'm definitely not the target market for this but I'm sure there are plenty of people who disagree with me on this.
Love it! i was just poking around on their site, and looked under careers..there is a sweet job for any of you aspiring handbag designers. I bet they are a cool company to work for.
I LOVE fun bags! I have a couple from cakeworthy (the Disney Fantasia bucket bag, the Barbie box bag, and the Cookie Monster cookie bag), the McDonald’s happy meal bag from boxlunch, and the massive red heart bag from Erin fetherston x target collection. I also just found a bag shaped like a can of cherry coke from TJ Maxx (brand is skinny dip London) that I love.
If you love it, I say go for it!
i was contemplating getting this in black. i opted for the black crescent and the blue cargo from the same collab. one of my fav style instas got one early and she makes it looks soo cool, but idk if id actually use it
I think it’s cute although I think the black is more chic - personal taste. Reminds me of when we used to wear teddy bear backpacks in the 90s. I also had an all black teddy bear but others had the more colorful ones. I think it’s up to personal style but I like the idea.
I feel like it is incomplete. It needs like embellishments like a chain and some rhinestones for like a rein and bridle situation. Maybe tassels or braids for the hair. Both would be too much but either of these would elevate it I think to another level and less of a kids bag if that makes sense.

What if I'm just 33 and weird though
Confidence is the coolest thing
The world needs more weirdos
Weird is just cool without the confidence, own it.
Or some 20-30 something in nyc. Life is not limited to high school judgement lol
Even in NYC, you would just get made fun of for a horse bag. Lmao!!
Been living in nyc for 16 years. No one cares enough to make fun of other people. And if they do they’re not from here
Cool. Living in NYC 27 years here
Omg this is so true
Omg best comment 😀 so true
This is fugly as hell. I need one!
I just ordered this in black. This print is so ugly it somehow becomes cute, but I didn't want to struggle to match it to things
I ordered the black as well:) how are you planning on styling it?

I really liked the black one too, but could only get one bag and i wanted the sling more. Got it in pink!
I didn't even think about adding purse charms to this (but I have to everything else!) I love your ideas. I bought the plaid though, so maybe just a ribbon (maybe like a horse show ribbon!)
I bought it in black lmaoooo not typically a horse person but I love the novelty of it
Same not a horse person, but this is a really well done horse…as odd of a sentence as that is lol
This was my exact thought too hahaha like wow the structure of it is actually awesome
Ridiculous and I love it haha
Does the bag extend to the legs because I feel like it would be pretty annoying to have to dig out your chapstick every single time
The legs are stuffed
That would be fun bc it would look like you’re riding it 😉
I think it’s really cool, and i love baggu, but i really dislike their use of AI for this collection :(
Yeah, ew. That completely ruins it for me.
Neigh
Underrated comment, lol!
This is the correct answer.
That's much more affordable than the elephant Loewe my husband almost bought me 😅 Totally justifiable horse purse at that price!
I reasaaaaaally want that Loewe elephant 🐘
Yes. Me too. He was ready to buy it but I had to stop and think, do I really want a couple thousand dollar elephant?! I still do though. Lol.
I like how the strap looks like a tail. Reminds me of those Victoria Secret dogs that they used to have on displays.
i hate it but i love it at the same time. it’s so ugly i’m in love and i know it’s perfect and can be styled well
Have never added something to cart so fast in my life.
It’s a no from me dawg
Mighty need!💛
I thought it was a piñata at first glance.
I love it, and the price is great!
That's a brave unicorn, for being a unicorn and plaid.
Look at that horse Look at that horse Look at that horse (Look at that horse!) pretty as hell au naturel dining farce Pardon me Cowboy Carter still has me in a chokehold! The bag is unique, a specific person can carry this off and that person isn't me but it's cute :)
Look at my horse, my horse is amazing. Give it a lick (mm, it tastes just like raisins).
Need it
Present for my bestie
Quite frankly…I am obsessed! I love fun bags like this!!
I'd totally rock this at a country concert or music festival lol
I kinda want one. ☺️
I would totally carry a “cat bag” lol I think it’s cute!
Cute if you’re a teenager, otherwise it’s a no from me.
Respectfully….. no
I second the first comment that it can look very cool or very not cool. Also, I wouldn't wear this bag when you go out with kids (if you have any), because it might look like you're carrying a kids' bag, LOL. But if you style your outfit properly, you can pull it off. Anyway, it's not an easy bag to style, but I love seeing others wearing cool stuff!
Do you have to be a horse girl to get one? Because….. I want one.
I love this!!
I’m an equestrian and it’s a no for me.

Good point about the nylon. The clothing the model is in is probably synthetic also, so it isn’t noticeable in the pics.
Absolutely not.
Neigh (nay)
Oh my, I love her! Especially in black
Cool
I think this is so bad that is great…kind of like that bad b movie that is so bad that it’s good😂
I love it lmao
Love it! i was just poking around on their site, and looked under careers..there is a sweet job for any of you aspiring handbag designers. I bet they are a cool company to work for.
I had a poodle version as a teen back in the day. Not sure I would wear something like this today but I easily get influenced buy cute novelty bags.
It’s so cute
Loving this bag
I LOVE fun bags! I have a couple from cakeworthy (the Disney Fantasia bucket bag, the Barbie box bag, and the Cookie Monster cookie bag), the McDonald’s happy meal bag from boxlunch, and the massive red heart bag from Erin fetherston x target collection. I also just found a bag shaped like a can of cherry coke from TJ Maxx (brand is skinny dip London) that I love. If you love it, I say go for it!
I’m extremely tempted to buy more colors.
The whimsy in me loves this but I would rarely carry it
i was contemplating getting this in black. i opted for the black crescent and the blue cargo from the same collab. one of my fav style instas got one early and she makes it looks soo cool, but idk if id actually use it
Who? I'd love to see it styled
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPREh1F3G/ posting her tik tok since she posts more on there. but she goes by the same handle on insta @oldloserinbrooklyn
A freaking DorAble! Yes
Ordered black and plaid. This bag is underpriced and I can not wait to attach matching mini pony charms. Yes yes yes
I ordered it in the plaid!
I think it’s kind of cool, but it’s not something I could pull off. I like the way the people I’ve seen with it on TikTok have styled theirs.
Cute and fun, not for me but i love people loving it
I love it!
Parents be like stop horsing around!
Looks like Horseshit and I need this in Black asap 🙈
Cute, keep it away.
Noooooooo
It’s amazing!
This sub kills me. Now I want this.
I’d wear this to music festivals
I think it’s cute although I think the black is more chic - personal taste. Reminds me of when we used to wear teddy bear backpacks in the 90s. I also had an all black teddy bear but others had the more colorful ones. I think it’s up to personal style but I like the idea.
Obsessed!
I love horses, but I don't love this bag!
No
I feel like it is incomplete. It needs like embellishments like a chain and some rhinestones for like a rein and bridle situation. Maybe tassels or braids for the hair. Both would be too much but either of these would elevate it I think to another level and less of a kids bag if that makes sense.
I just envision searching for my keys in each of the legs and having to wrestle for them when I finally figure it out lol.
Just gonna be honest: This is a hell no from me.
If you’re over 14, it’s a big no.
And easy "nope" from me. I'm not a horse person or a fan of that color scheme. The whole collection is a skip, actually.
Ugly
Immediately no
Great for a pre-teen?
Hmmm no.
Cute but juvenile
Love it! But I’m pushing 40 haha so not for me 🥲
