Women's Crossbody Bags: How to Choose the Right Size and Style

A crossbody bag is the one you reach for most: it keeps your hands free, sits close to your body and carries the things you actually use. The right one comes down to four decisions.

1. Start with what you carry

Lay out your daily essentials first. Phone, wallet, keys and a lipstick fit a mini bag of around 17×13 cm. Add sunglasses, a power bank or a small notebook and you need a medium bag of around 24×17 cm to 26×21 cm. Every bag in our collection lists its size in centimetres, so compare it with what you carry before you order.

2. Check the strap

An adjustable strap lets the bag sit at your hip, where it is most comfortable and easiest to reach. Many of our models come with two straps, a long one for crossbody wear and a short handle or chain for carrying by hand, so one bag covers work and an evening out.

3. Choose the closure for where you go

A zip is the safer choice for public transport and crowded places. A flap or metal lock looks dressier and suits outings and occasions.

4. Pick a colour you will wear every week

Black, beige and brown match most outfits. If this is your second bag, off-white or a printed design adds something different.

Quick checklist

• The size in cm fits your phone and wallet
• The strap is adjustable
• The closure suits where you will carry it
• The colour goes with at least three outfits you own
