The Shape of the Season: Getting Boxed In

The Shape of the Season

The shape we are obsessing over right now is the rectangular box. It’s actually one of the most classic shapes, but we go in phases when we gravitate towards a particular silhouette (from the slouchy hobo to the structured tote or bucket) and right now, the rectangle is where we’re headed. It’s convenient with a basic size that suits your similarly-shaped phone – because these days, that’s just about all you need. Once Apple figures out how to start my car with my thumbprint, I’ll be set!
