6 bags suitable for a Kindle Paperwhite

All year round, I share this little shoulder bag (my affiliate code is JANSSEN) that fits my basic Kindle perfectly.

But my Kindle Paperwhite?

This one doesn’t fit inside (with or without case).

So I went looking for small bags that could hold a Kindle Paperwhite!

Here are some of my favorite options:

Best bag for Kindle Paperwhite

Shoulder bag
This crossbody purse is the one in the photos above and is under $30, comes in many color options, and is a great hands-free option! So many readers have raved about this one and now that I’ve tried it for myself, I can see why it’s such a popular option for bags to fit a Paperwhite!

Zipped shoulder bag
This shoulder bag is really similar to my Thread, but just large enough to comfortably fit a Kindle Paperwhite. One of my teenage daughters uses this bag constantly because she has a Paperwhite that doesn’t fit in the Thread bags her sisters use! And less than $11?? It also exists in black.

Fanny pack
It’s similar to the Lululemon option but cheaper, under $20 and lots of color options! Plenty of space to fit your Kindle Paperwhite and all your other essentials!

Padded shoulder strap
This one is so pretty and roomy without looking huge! It comes in several neutral colors and when I tried this one, I was instantly in love!

Braided leather shoulder bag
If you want a bag that fits your Kindle Paperwhite AND is a little more upscale, this one is for you! It’s small but very big for a Kindle and so charming. It also comes in many color options!

Large woven shoulder bag
This bag is the largest of the group but its slim profile makes it easy to carry. The large weave makes it a statement without being overwhelming and it’s just such a beautiful bag!
