Item of the Week: Stylish Crossbody Bags

Nov 2, 2018

Crossbody bags are the best choice for travel, for the weekend, an extra bag to keep in your oversized work tote.  But is it possible to find a well-made, stylish crossbody for under-$75?

This simple cognac crossbody ($68) from Urban Originals is a nice option.  I also like their Perfect World bag with a sleek shape and minimalist design.

Looking for something cool, almost rocker-chic?  This black bag with black hardware from Pixie Mood is unbelievably cool.

For something uniquely feminine, this Easton colorblock clutch has a lovely blush color and a modern clasp.  Or if you’re just looking for a bit of color, try this green Street Level clutch.

    Love the cognac bag, great color and I am a huge cross body fan, so easy when walking any where.

    These are cute bags! I love the shape of the Street Level bag.

    I also have this one from Anthro and freaking love it: https://goo.gl/HX8Rh6. I get so many compliments and it definitely looks more expensive than it is.

    I’d love to hear your thoughts about what makes a quality bag. Really, about quality in general. How do you evaluate?

    • Belle says:

      First, the strap and handles. It should be stable and the clasps holding it to the bag should be strong.

      Second, the stitching on the interior and exterior. It should be tight, look secure, etc.

      Third, the material. It should look like a more expensive product with no obvious flaws.

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
