"By this point, the universal stadium clear bag policy is a foe we all know well. Gone are the days of bringing your go-to bag to a concert with you; now, if it isn’t clear, it typically isn’t allowed inside the stadium. However, that doesn’t stop us from bargaining with ourselves before heading out. Surely my favorite little shoulder bag will be allowed in, right? Take it from me, the last thing you want is to find yourself barred from entering the stadium with your favorite going out purse and debating whether you should throw it into the bushes and hope it’s still there after the show.
This 24-ounce Stanley is the take-anywhere hydration essential that’ll make an everyday appearance.
Still, finding the perfect clear bag that won’t ruin your outfit is no easy feat. You want something small, yet still big enough to hold any essentials you’ll need away from home, but not so big that it’s an inconvenience to hold onto during Chappel Roan’s HOT TO GO! dance break or while you’re scream-singing to Sabrina Carpenter. After hours of research, we’ve found that clear bags come in a million shapes and sizes, and—in a complete surprise—they’re also pretty cute.
We’ve found them all: belt bags, Y2K-style purses, saddle bags, hell, even ones that look a little Chanel-inspired. Prepare yourself by snatching one of these now and avoid the shame-walk back to your car to put your stadium-forbidden purse in it later.
