The trend of ‘boyfriend dressing’ has really taken off lately. Many brands are also starting to create unisex lines of clothing. However, if you’re not interested in sharing your clothes with the man in your life, try accessories such as bags. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to see what’s out there.

This bag is by an iconic British brand. It has a classic and understated design which makes it perfect for both sexes. The bag is beautifully crafted and features a front pocket with twin buckle fastening. Females may prefer to wear it as an over-the-shoulder satchel, while males may prefer to wear it in backpack form.

This option is for the designer couple. Proenza Schouler’s black leather satchel is terribly on trend and on the must-have list of any discerning fashionista (or fashionisto). The all black design just screams understated cool. Share this with your man or buy one each because you’ll definitely be fighting over who gets to wear this number.

I love the rich brown colour of this bag. Its minimal design makes it the perfect bag for both males and females. You can use it to carry all your essentials on a girl’s weekend away, while he can take it on his next business trip. This bag will please everyone.

This purse is all sorts of cool. I wouldn’t expect any less from this designer. The straps on this bag are easily adjustable, making it perfect to share. It sits close to the body and would be great for travelling or taking to festivals.

This bag is easily one of my favourites. The classic shape and vegetal tanning are stand out design features. It features contrasting leather straps, snap closures, and is fully lined. However, I do think that most men would find this design too feminine. But when you think about it, this just means that you can use it more often!

This canvas shopper is cool and casual. I love the New York inspired Nouvelle print on the front of the bag. It’s the perfect size for carrying notebooks, laptops, and other assorted materials. The low price point is sure to make both you and your man happy!

Corporate couples take note. This black leather briefcase talks business. I love the classic design and brass accents. It also comes with a lock and key, so all your business can be safely locked away. Carry it by the handle or sling it over your shoulder for a more casual look.
