Jisoo’s monogram bag is from her beloved Christian Dior, but that didn’t stop her from styling it à la Jane Birkin. Her Blackpink bandmate Lisa would be proud.
Jisoo, in photos shared to her Instagram, slipped into a simple grout-fit (gray outfit, that is) accented with a logo-heavy Dior bag.

The likes of Dua Lipa, Anne Hathaway, and Gigi Hadid are all decorating their luxury bags with odd bits and baubles. But perhaps it was Lisa who gave Jisoo a few pointers on accessorizing your accessories.
Earlier this month, the Thai rapper paired her micro Louis Vuitton Alma bag with one of the French brand’s fuzzy charms.
