There's nothing like a pre-summer escape to Europe — and Priyanka Chopra Jonas and her husband Nick Jonas totally have the right idea. The lovebirds were recently spotted hand-in-hand enjoying some Italian gelato while strolling through the streets of Rome, and of course, they both had on effortlessly cool 'fits.
Jonas gave his neutral wide-leg trousers a pop of color with a coral button-down shirt and a bright green bag, while Chopra Jonas wore a matching green set with a leather jacket, sneakers, and a $625 Mansur Gavriel M Frame Box Bag in the practical style everyone in Hollywood seems to be wearing.
With its compact, structured appearance, a box bag is a timeless silhouette that can easily be dressed up or down, which is why it's no surprise that Kate Middleton was seen carrying the bag style on three different occasions last year. But some stars like Chopra Jonas and Taylor Swift are opting for hands-free options, which are a little more functional due to comfy shoulder straps.
If you love Chopra Jonas stylish and practical box bag but don't want to spend hundreds of dollars, you can get a similar handbag for as little as $26. Shop crossbody box bags from Amazon below.
