After years of rocking the same drab handbag straps, we finally have something to be excited about: the embellished guitar strap. With an array of styles, these colorfully woven patterns and embroidered leather straps are a trend after our own hearts. They’ve even been labeled by Cosmopolitan as the ‘it’ bag.
In the elite-fashion scene, we’ve seen celebrities like Jessica Alba and Chiara Ferragni dress up their bags with Fendi’s geometrically vibrant and floral studded leather straps. And on the runway, Valentino has introduced intricately designed straps that have ultimately turned a #basicbag into something worth talking about.

In the everyday street style, we’ve seen fashion-savvy citizens taking a more economical approach.
By sprucing up their bags with Rebecca Minkoff’s embroidered straps, these stylish folks have dominated the fashion for a fraction of the luxury designer brand price.
So how do you get in on the guitar-strap loving action?
For the insanely creative and a bit more expensive, Valentino has priced its straps at about $900. And for the more affordable, Rebecca Minkoff has straps that start at $95. Fendi has also taken to the trend by designing floral straps for the runway.
The truth is, no matter what route you go, guitar straps do no disappoint.
