Looking for a nice Cross body bag please..

[VulvaInLaw]

Leather preferably
No Fossil or Radley or Kipling please

For every day. Current one I have is a DKNY one from New York 12 years ago! Has lasted well!

I like simple ideas, clean lines etc. Would like a mulberry tessie but I'm being sensible so budget of about being £100, more if I absolutely love it

Thanks!

I just bought this, it's Lovely - nicer in the flesh, beautiful clean lines, and well within budget!

From one who thinks m&s is infact not dead....www.marksandspencer.com/leather-turnlock-messenger-bag/p/p22438425?image=SD_01_T01_6107E_VS_X_EC_90&color=TAN&prevPage=plp&pdpredirect

Try fat face- I have a lovely one from there.

I have a modalu cross body in pale grey that I love

How big does it need to be? I'm getting the DKNY Chelsea Vintage cross body from DH for my birthday

Thanks for the replies. Is the DKNY bag a bit boxy? Need to get usual stuff in it- purse iPhone keys, usually a thomas train or two, lip gloss.

Will have a look at ones mentioned

I love my knomo elektronista

I cant link but there is a beautiful oiled leather one in fat face at the moment

Feels lovely, comes in brown and black

I have this Jigsaw bag in light grey, the leather is beautiful and buttery soft!

That jigsaw bag is Gorgeous !!

Not helpful, but I thought a "cross body bag" would be something you might find an angry person in in a mortuary . I should stay away S&B threads...

Why not Fossil?

More...

I have this and I loveit because it is slim and has clean lines. You forget you're wearing it. It's hand-tooled leather made in UK.

I treated myself to one of these recently and I really like it.

There's a sale on at the moment too...

Take a look at COS too. They sometimes have good minimalist cross body.

I have a Mulberry Tessie in Oxblood, really love it-works with everything!

Right, just gone back and read your op (I am idiot). Ignore my post.

(It's defo worth the money though, got mine in a 20% off John Lewis day)

White Stuff. I dislike thier clothes but thier leather bags are quite nice and simple. www.whitestuff.com/accessories/womens-accessories/bags-purses/

OHHHH ....... Op following with interest. I started my own thread last month to ask the same thing.

Good luck.

Have a look at mint velvet and all saints, they have some good bags.
I've just bought a fossil one and am returning it as it's just not as nice as I thought it would be.
Have ordered a fat Face one to try, I feel like I have been looking at Cross body bags for ages now!

I have a lovely grey (last season) Mint velvet one .. They have some gorgeous ones... and some in sale

You guys are good! Liking the jigsaw one so far and just found this on the Cos site, although not sure it will be very strong for the price? Need something that won't damage the straps if I have a couple of sets of keys in etc.
