I feel like I’m constantly finding myself wearing all black so I think I’d end up wearing this bag as a nice pop of color with my oops-goth outfits.

Love the red bag! I'd put it together with black overalls, a white t-shirt, and black boots. Also, always a high ponytail.

that bag is soooo fucking cute. I am dipping my toe into wearing more color so I'd probably have it be my colorful accessory to my otherwise "boring" outfits

Prairie Lights in Iowa City and the Raven in Lawrence, KS are phenomenal indie booksellers, too.

Oh, and I’d wear the bag with a pink and red striped JCrew cashmere sweater and Toad & Co. gray cords. Or white cashmere wide leg trousers from Naadam and a JCrew denim button up.

Great ideas! I second Browseabout Books in Rehoboth Beach, DE. The red bag is so cute! I’d style it with a pleated black skirt and a black and gold fair aisle sweater, and metallic gold flats. Happy holidays!

Ooh! I’d style the red bag with my baggy Levi’s, a striped rugby sweater, baseball cap, white sneaks, and a matching red lip!

I’d style it with Rental House by Wieke Wang peeking out, my new secondhand Acne leather jacket with red lining, faded jeans, boots, a white tee and a black cashmere beanie.

That red bag is so cute! I would wear with an oversized denim jacket and I guess more denim on the bottom and black boots

Love the indie bookstore shout outs! I've been into red + burgundy this fall/winter, so I'd pair the bag with a burgundy sweater + skirt for a monochrome look with a red lip to tie it all together.

love the red bag and the festive spirit! Thanks for the last minute ideas. Vintage is my favorite, with a hint of new in the mix.
