WOULD YOU WEAR A HIGH-FASHION FANNY PACK?

Stars are loving the hands-free design of this bag, but is it chic or tacky?

Fanny packs have a reputation of being the go-to hands-free handbag for tacky tourists all around the globe.

Despite their nerdy characteristics, a bunch of very fashionable stars are drawn to this hip-hugging accessory as of late. Why? We're not sure—Jared Leto is championing the style as a "hip pack," but it's happening. In the past month, Fergie has been spotted multiple times toting around a quilted Chanel fanny pack (and sometimes a baby) in two different colors: silver and black. The ever-stylish Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted in NYC storing her goods in a belted Chanel pouch. One of Kylie Jenner's Coachella looks this year included a gold-studded multi-compartment fanny pack.

Even celebrity stylist and fashion designer Rachel Zoe put her stamp of approval on a low-slung belt bag from her Spring 2013 runway collection.

Now that you've seen the celeb-approved fanny packs, it's time to decide: would you try it?
