Carry-all totes and teeny-tiny evening clutches have their well-earned places in our wardrobes, but it’s the crossbody bag we find ourselves reaching for most.
The perfect balance of practicality—hello, hands-free liberation—and style, the crossbody bag proves both chic and versatile.
Our go-to when looking for the perfect travel companion and everyday accessory, many crossbody bags can go from day to night thanks to multiple straps—a long shoulder strap to throw over on the run and shorter chain or top handle for elevated evening events.
If you’re rightly wanting to invest in such a style, look no further, we’ve found the best crossbody bags below.
