Naomi Watts and Anne Hathaway’s Favorite Bag Style and Lookalikes at Quince

If you’re on the fence about adding an east-west bag to your collection, consider this your nudge. This bag style combines chic design with practicality, offering a minimalist ’90s vibe while providing ample space for your belongings.

Recently, celebrities like Naomi Watts embraced this trend. She sported two different east-west bags during her promotions for All’s Fair in New York City. Anne Hathaway also adopted the same bag shape for her Devil Wears Prada 2 press tour last summer. Inspired by these elegant looks, similar styles are available at Quince.

The new Quince leather bag mirrors Watts’ sleek style, enhancing any fall or winter outfit. This leather bag includes a cotton-polyester lining that protects your items. Despite its compact size, features like triple-compartment organization and two side slip pockets maximize its storage capacity.

“The quality is top-notch and looks high-end,” said one reviewer.

If you’re after a more relaxed look, consider Quince’s suede version. Available in shades like rich chocolate, whiskey, and pebble, this style pairs well with various outfits. The top handles feature a small strap to keep them secured, preventing the need for frequent readjustments.

For those needing more space, a sleek work satchel may be ideal. It includes two side compartments and a zippered compartment that fits a 13-inch laptop, along with notebooks and other essentials. A customer mentioned their obsession with the luxurious gold hardware, noting it resembles a $500 designer bag.

Lastly, Quince presents a leather bag that captures the essence of Hathaway’s and Watts’ preferences, featuring a striking rounded design. It offers a zippered interior pocket and an additional snap-closure pocket for quick access to cosmetics or other items. The bag’s design includes a clip to keep the top handles together.
