Whether to celebrate fall arrival or just to satisfy a shopping crave, you NEED a new bag! Besides the timeless handbag, a crossbody bag is nevertheless as fashionable as functional and it’s ideally the perfect hands-free accessory for last-minute shopping trips, hectic busymornings or girls’ night outings.
Indeed (and yey we couldn’t be more excited!) this season, crossbody bags are finally back and we spotted them on the streets of Spring 2022 Fashion Weeks, exuding creativity and imagination to meet your style expectations. From micro bags to XXL styles, treat yourself to a gorgeous crossbody this season because – hell, yes! – there's something here for everyone.
Cute & Mini
A teeny-tiny bag can be easily thrown on with any outfit. The trick? Choose an outfit with pockets for your phone and keep your mini bag for the spare face mask, hand sanitizer and lipstick. As for styling ideas, a bright colored mini bag flawlessly complements an all-white outfit while a fiery yellow bag can make a huge statement if you’re rocking the monochrome black-and-white trend. Additionally, high waisted bottom flared denim pants and crop top with a leather mini bag are the ultimate modern look.
Crossbodied bucket
A crossbody bucket is an ideal choice for your street walks and trips. This bohemian-inspired bag adds a stylishly and elegant look to both trendy and professional styles as long as your outfit and the bag are a perfect match. It can easily pair with your simple tee and jeans, as well as with a dress or a pantsuit for work while a neutral-colored bag can be worn with jeans, sweaters and sneakers combos.
Layering time
What’s even more stylish (and more practicable!) than one bag? Two. Carrying more than one bag at a time has revealed to be the latest “it” thing! From the runways to the street, bag layering is the name of the game. It is an easy way to add a dash of color and style to your outfit. You can rock the multi-bag look by pairing multiple shapes, sizes, and silhouettes for that extra stylishly chic flair.
Sleek and simple
Whether with athleisure or business attire, sleek and chic bags are a smart buy for those of us who are looking for fashion items that will stand the test of time. Practical and classically stylish, they are the perfect accessory for an evening out look as well as an easy alternative when you want to go hands-free while running errands.
Timeless icons
Similar to a statement necklace or a pair of gorgeous high heels, an iconic handbag is the perfect accessory to beworn every day. Go for a chic Chanel phone holder crossbody quilted bag that has enough space to fit your phone and other essentials like cards and cash. Or rock the long sleeve denim jumpsuit with an iconic Hermès bag to reflect your boho chic lifestyle.
Go big
If you’re not into the tiny bag trend, then the jumbo bag is a great option for you to fit all the things inside. Extra-large crossbodies are the perfect travel companion and they are so easy to wear with jackets and handy enough to carry travel essentials like passports and wallet. Rock an oversized crossbody with a totally nude outfit and you’re ready to go!
