Love these bags! All over the Runways at London Fashion Week were side-slung bags. Other synonyms for these cross-hearted goodies; messenger, sling, saddle or cross-body bag! Whatever we want to deem them...one thing's for sure, they are CHIC!
Take a peek at the above collage and see the array of bag styles. Small and petite at House of Holland, a flat messenger version at Jaeger London and skinny straps at Eley Kishimoto and Paul Smith Women. I would actually bet some serious moolah that you have a big, right now, in the depths of your closet that can fit this side-sling mold perfectly! Or...do you have a bag with removable straps? Go to your local guitar shop, but a guitar strap then VOILA...hook it ON and cross your heart!

A few more looks from London Fashion Week to make sure, this new purse-sporting style, resonates with you! I do have to say, I'd steer clear of the furry versions, similar to the puff-ball at House of Holland (directly above) as it lends a feeling of raiding your 7 year old sister's closet! NOT cool!
Just keep an eye out for a luxurious leather messenger, a lady-like flat bag with a long strap or even a glittery nighttime clutch with removable strap can fulfill the need. I've provided some speedy-savvy-stylin' for you below. Just click on the thumbnail and you'll be directed RIGHT TO find out more about the bag and to maybe even buy! My top two from this grouping has got to be the Market Bag By Jaye Hersh or the Grand Canyon Saddlebag, with it's two 'must have' large front pockets! Love this look...this Spring and on into Fall...allow your bags to ride side-saddle!
