You don’t have to wear a fanny pack to free up your hands. Crossbody bags serve the same function and make you look a lot cooler. Here are the top five crossbody bags, starting at $26:
1. The simple row of studs on this Under One Sky Studded Crossbody Bag ($26) is enough to make a statement, but not too much to overwhelm an outfit.
2. Fringe is a great detail, but too much of it can make you like you just left Woodstock. This TopShop Leather Tassel Cross Body Bag ($44) has subtle fringe that won’t make you look like a a complete hippie.
3. Exterior zippers look good, but they are also useful. With this Rebecca Minkoff BF Leather Crossbody Pouch ($150) you won’t lose the tiniest of your most prized possessions.
4. The coral color on this Fossil Sasha Crossbody bag ($108) will elevate a standard t-shirt and jeans outfit.
5. The Sak Crossbody Bag ($89) fold over bag is compact, but if your purse starts to overflow, you can wear the purse as a tote, too.
