Crossbody bags are the unsung heroes of our closets. They keep our hands free, can hold basically everything, make us all look like French girls and can probably hold baguettes, too. But we appreciate crossbody bags the most when we need to carry more then one bag — a gym bag , tote or grocery haul — and we can still look chic and sporty.
From buckled to sequined to leather, crossbody bags come in a stellar range and can totally save us when we’re schlepping from one side of town to the other.
