Although their popularity might have waned temporarily in favour of the (impractical) baguette purses, the eternal charm of cross-body bags lies in their functionality and ability to lift even the most mundane looks. And now, with the style trending again, they are available in a variety of styles, colours and patterns.

Glitter and glam

This playful unicorn-patterned sequinned bag has a reversible gold-hued side making it the perfect pick-me-up for a night out on town. Pair it with a little black dress and statement heels for a chic but playful look.
