Small cross-body bag for holiday

[everyonebutme]

Can anyone recommend a small cross-body bag that I could use on holiday, or just any time I go out. I really only need it to hold my phone and reading glasses so nothing to big and bulky.

Colours I reckon.

Like the listing for Uniqlo has a lovely purple one that'd I'd buy in a heartbeat, but it's not listed for sale there, just eBay or other resellers for a lot more. I wouldn't buy from anywhere but Uniqlo, I'd be wary of knock-offs.

@elizabethcharlotte yes, my friends have washed their pastel ones in the washing machine without any problems. Wool wash.
I'll do my yellow one when it needs it.

I’m going on holiday tomorrow and have bought this for the same reason. It’s really lovely and, although it’s small, it’s quite roomy. The quality is great too, it’s lined on the inside.

I've just bought a Pom Pom bag for my holiday and love it

Anything Kipling they last forever
If you're loaded liberties do some fabulous bags .

The Uniqlo cross body is fab I have 2 colours. And only £15!

Primark do their own version of the Uniqlo bag for only £7! I bought it in khaki last week, love it.

I’ve been looking for exactly the same. White Stuff have a nice one but it’s very similar to the Eastpak with less colour options, so I think I’m going to go for this one - https://amzn.to/46a5I7Z

I've just bought this https://www.clarks.co.uk/c/Kierra-Strap/p/261696710000
It fits my phone, reading glasses, purse and pack of tissues and car keys. It looks smaller on the photo than it is in real life.

I’ve got a couple of Kipling Abanu bags, one small and one medium. I use the small one when I go to football matches as we can only take very small bags into the stadium but it easily holds my phone, keys, purse, tissues, sanitiser and a bit of make up.

Zara have a great range at the mo

Oh wow. Perfect. I'll get one too. Thanks 😊

Roka do lovely bags of all shapes and sizes! Waterproof too.

Just in case you haven’t bought anything yet… I bought the Troop Classic Shoulder bag (can get direct or from Amazon) - bought 2 in different sizes. Both versions are cross body,
have zipped pockets and feel secure. I bought both in tan but am tempted by other colours…. Whatever you choose, have a fab holiday!

It depends on your budget and how fancy you want to look! I have the uniqlo bag in corduroy which looks contemporary and cool. But I also have a small Mimi Berry leather bag for when I want to look smarter (though mind you I still usually wear it with denim shorts and an oversized linen shirt)

I love Roka bags but their small Chelsea bag is just like a pocket.

I just got my Leather camera bag crossbody bag for $20 from Amazon, I like it so far.

This looks great.

Does anyone have the bigger version of the Uniqlo Round Shoulder Bag?
I love the look of the dark orange one.

I don't have it and haven't seen it in person yet, but someone on another thread (the one about what colour to get the smaller one in) said that she saw the larger faux leather black and beige ones yesterday and wasn't impressed with the quality, saying they looked very plasticky.
Hope to have a look myself when I'm next near a branch.

I love Kipling cross body bags for holidays, loads of different pockets

Just spent a week away and the Uniqlo bag was fantastic , bought one for my friend too and she wore hers constantly - just super handy having everything to hand and felt more secure than hanging around waist

I've bought one of these recently for travelling, I liked the mesh on the front zippy pocket for my passport.
