January 18 2020 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

These Crossbody Bags Are Stylish, Affordable and Perfect For Everyday

If you’re looking for a new bag that you can wear everywhere this year, you can’t go wrong with a crossbody bag.

As someone who usually carries around a bag that is big enough to fit the kitchen sink (or so my husband thinks), I’ve fallen in love with the style and practicality of carrying a bag that ONLY fits the essentials (purse, phone, keys, lip gloss(es)) AND looks good.

I’ve scoured the internet and uncovered the my Top 10 crossbody bags for the year.

Good luck on choosing just one!

Stevie Boxy Cross Body Bag $19.99, Amara Pinch Lock Bag $99.95, Croc Front Slim Cross Body Bag $39.95, Accordion Mini Shoulder Bag $59.95, Mini Tassel Crossbody Bag $9, Eden Wide Strap Cross Body Bag $19.95 (on sale), Kylie Camera Bag $99.95, Marta Quilted Crossbody Bag $29.95, Blocked Chain Crossbody Bag $9, Mustard Cross Body Box $99

After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was amazing to see my boy back on the court last night doing what he loves.

Can’t wait to see what the rest of the season brings 💪🏻🖤❤️🏀
