Impulse Buy: Fanny Packs by Kelly Dempsey

Project Runway Season 14 runner-up Kelly Dempsey charmed us (and Tim Gunn) with her funky streetwear. And while she just missed taking home the prize, the Boston-based designer is still rocking the same edgy aesthetic we came to know and love from the reality show. Her newly launched line, Rack Addik, features eye-catching prints, urban silhouettes, and—yes—fanny packs. Leave it to the über-hip Dempsey to bring back this long-forgotten trend. Updated with statement-making prints and fabrics, her next-level fanny packs are the perfect accessory for running errands. We have our eye on this slick quilted-pleather version, which resembles a futuristic take on a classic Chanel handbag.
