Cross Body...

Go shopping, carry groceries, carry laundry, carry boxes, push a pushchair, watch a concert, go out for drinks on a Friday night, go out dancing, walk around a city you don't know, eat an ice-cream while walking and window-shopping, carry your baby, carry your nephew, walk the dog, reply a text on your iphone with both hands, drink a frappuccino while walking and carrying your shopping bags, try a free sea-salt hand exfoliation, carry your BFF who drank a tad too much,  shop one of H&M designers' collaboration collections, buy shoes at Harrods during sales' season, shape your nails while waiting for the bus, analyse your split-ends while waiting for the bus, read "Stylist" while waiting for the bus, pick someone at the airport and help with the luggage, give a proper hug...

They are simple, functional, practical, cool - I know, in a perfect world fashion would never yield to practicability, but on our day-to-day life it kind has to - and with that on mind, let us thank the "oh so efficient but still stylish" cross body bags :)

I just love how liberating and laid back they are - and nowadays there are so many different designs and styles, that we are really spoilt for choices.
