Good everyday cross body bag needed

9 replies

Hello all, I'm in need of a good quality leather cross body bag. I have an old Mulberry Anthony which has been great because I can just bash about with it, but do not want to spend that kind of cash again. My budget is around £150. I'm looking for strong cross body strap (not a skinny one) and the bag needs to be big enough for phone, brolly, hat, purse, sanitiser etc. I really do not like the following brands (they're nice enough but just not me) FOssil, Radley, LK Bennet etc. I'm a black dress and trainers girl! Can anyone recommend one? Am open to suggestions. Pleeeeeease! :)

I know they’re not leather but le pliage are so strong and versatile

If you liked the Antony you might like this bag from The Cambridge Satchel Company: UK produced leather bag around £150 (10% off if you sign up for their emails) in lots of colours.

I am desperate for a really good cross body bag. I bought one (a really nice one!) from a gorgeous shop in Italy for my mother for her birthday. When I noticed she didn't use it, I asked her about it, and she said she didn't like it and had given it away to her hairdresser! GUTTED! I would have taken it back and got her something else.

The real leather satchel company do good cross body bags but even though they look lovely, I find that they are heavy without anything in them (but that might be just me )

Hi the Cambridge ones look lovely but are too heavy. I need one that is soft and supple as I carry quite a lot. Any other ideas ladies?

How about this?

All Saints are also good for a less prim bag and they have great sales.
