4 Websites to Find the Cutest and Quirkies bags

Recently many brands have been dishing out fun quirky bags and the trends seems to be moving away from tradition satchels and slings. Animal inspired bags, popcorn buckets, bags which look like houses are seen dominating the runaway. Whilst brands like Dolce and Gabbana and Kate Spade dominate the luxury market, there are always affordable alternatives if you're looking to spice up your wardrobe with a few statement pieces. Here are a few of my favourite websites to find weird, quirky bags.

1. Dolls Kill

The name and style of the shop seemed a bit off-putting initially. When I first chanced upon the website I thought it was mostly for cosplayers/ punk-chicks as some of the items there are pretty outlandish and unwearable on a daily basis. After exploring taking a close look, I realised that there are pretty decent stuff on the website once you sieve through the metal chains and suspenders. Particularly in the accessories section, you can find a few of the following bags.

Holographic items are trending this season thanks to Holo Queen Cristine of Simply Nailogical. This Holo butterfly backpack is perfect for fulfilling any Holosexual's fantasies.

I literally flipped when I saw this bag! A pastel bag with an attached unicorn hoodie? I'm absolutely SOLD! Unicorn items are definitely trendy and this bag is the a definite MUST for any unicorn lovers. 

2. AliExpress

I did a blogpost a few weeks back about some luxury dupes on AliExpress but they also do sell some of the weirdest, most interesting-looking bags.

This clock bag adds a vintage touch to any outfit. Pair it with a white skater and brown boots and you have yourself the perfect Fantastic Beast Inspired OOTD.

You might be wondering what this strange squishy looking bag is and I was scratching my head when I first saw it as well until I realised it was a Corgi's Butt!!! It's the most retarded bag I've ever seen in my life but also it's absolutely adorable. I completely lost it when I realise you could string your earphones through its butt hole!

3. Betsey Johnson

Betsey Johnson has not been too popular in recent years but about five years back, everyone owned a piece of Betsey. Loud, Colourful and fun, Betsey Johnson is the place to go to bring out your inner Katy Perry.

The pen-pineapple-apple-pen craze is over but that doesn't stop the pineapple craze. Pineapples always remind me of beaches, cocktails and summer and this bag brings out the summer vibe. I would love to see this on someone with a Spongebob onesie, it would be the most epic costume ever!

I'm not sure who would want to carry a chicken around but if you're ever in a mood to bring around some poultry, you know Betsey Johnson has your back. 

4. ASOS 

ASOS curates very wearable pieces but I love that they also carry more playful brands like Skinnydip and Lulu Guinness. You do need to filter through their more traditional bags but I assure you, it's worth the time spent. Here are 2 of my favourites:

Too Faced's Sweet peach palette started the peach craze and ever since, Kylie Cosmetics and a few others have hopped onto the peach cosmetics bandwagon. How about match your peach makeup with a peach bag?

ASOS' in-house brand also produces a few cute statement bags such at this adorable cactus. I'm not entirely sure what you would do with this but I guess it would complete a cowgirl look? 

Of course many fashion brands such as Forever 21 and New Look are starting to catch on the trend but as of now, these are some of my favourite places to find quirky bags.
