Autumn/ winter handbag suggestions please

What style handbag are you using for autumn & winter? I'm looking for an every-day bag, not a massive tote, just to carry purse, phone, keys etc.
Are x-body bags still in? I haven't seen many Uniqlo-style short-strap ones recently.
Any inspiration please, or I'll end up using my sensible rucksack all winter!

I really like the pompom London Sutton sling, sits nice as a cross body the handle can be used for over the shoulder or as a grab bag. Also sits up when put down

That's nice - it seems very similar to my sling from a couple of years ago though. Looking for something a bit different.

I have the Pom Pom sling bag and it’s perfect. I got it for £60 in the xmas sales if you can wait that long.

Although just seen you want a different style so ignore me!

I also have the sutton sling and love it. Probably going to buy another in tan.

Just bought Carvela Nina Tote in white for a slightly bigger option (they also have brown and caramel suede versions I was very tempted by but decided white was more versatile).

Also use several small crossbody bags by Long & Son for days when i dont need much with me - like this one but in tan or stone
