Handbag plushie charms are officially the latest must-have accessory, and Gen Z is leading the charge. Thanks to TikTok, these soft, nostalgic trinkets have become the go-to bag adornment, no matter how high-end the purse. Unlike statement bag charms of the past, these plushies aren’t about standing out—they’re about tapping into a sense of childhood nostalgia. And let’s be real: sometimes, accessorizing with a tiny stuffed animal just feels better than pretending to have it all together. Who needs to stress about adult responsibilities when a Hello Kitty plushie can add a little joy to your tote?
It’s not just Gen Z rocking the trend—celebrities are getting in on the fun too. Rihanna was spotted sporting a Labubu charm while out and about. Meanwhile, BlackPink’s Lisa has long been a plushie enthusiast, frequently pairing her Labubu charms with luxury staples like the Louis Vuitton Speedy Monogram. If the biggest names in fashion are giving in to their inner child, maybe it’s time we all do the same.

There’s something unexpectedly fun about pairing high fashion with the whimsy of a plushie. These charms don’t just accessorize luxury bags—they soften their sharp, polished aesthetic, making them feel a bit more playful and inviting. A structured designer purse can suddenly feel less rigid with a cheerful Labubu hanging from its handle. It’s a reminder that fashion doesn’t always have to be so serious—sometimes, the most stylish choice is the one that sparks joy. And really, who wouldn’t want to carry a little happiness with them everywhere they go?
