PART 1 - 2016 Fall Handbags Trends!

Summer’s gone and that means it’s time to get back to school, work, or whatever you might do when the weather changes and the kids are back from vacation. With lots of events and holiday parties coming up, it’s time to take a look at that fashion accessory we can’t live without…the purse or handbag!

I know what you are thinking, this is way too big a topic for one blogger to handle, and believe me I’m with you, so let’s get down to business and look at some specific styles. Today we are starting with “cross body” bags.

What is a Cross-Body Bag?

Well, it’s a bag whose shoulder strap goes across your body. Hey, this is not rocket science! Keep your hands free our selection of cross-body bags. The convertible bags can be worn as a cross-body but also as shoulder bags.

Let’s dig a little deeper into the bag and talk about the benefits of this design

Cross Body Bags are so convenient!

Cross-Body Benefits

1. Cross body bags are versatile!

Sometimes you have lots of stuff to carry and you want that big purse that’s closer to a suitcase than a purse, but there are other times when you may decide for a night out that you want a bag that is very compact and minimalist. Cross body bags can fit both of those needs! Cross body bags can be cute and versatile, or rugged and hardy.

There are small and big cross-bags.

2. Flavor of Old West

For those of you longing for the old West, you’ll become a huge fan of another type of cross body bag, the saddle-shape bag. These bags are known for their great curved shape and if they are made out of leather, have an equestrian feel to them.

3. Adjustable Strap

As much as style, size and convenience, one of the biggest benefits of these bags is the adjustable shoulder strap. Whatever size you may be, or whatever the length of shoulder strap you want, the comfort and convenience this feature provides may determine if you buy, or just browse the bag.

4. Safety First

For those of you who want a bag that will do it all, or at least carry it all without requiring a Sherpa, these bags with their ergonomic styling are great, but they are just as good for those of you wanting to carry the least amount and still feel safe. It’s much harder for a thief to pull the bag off your shoulder when it’s across your body.

Sure, it takes time to get the bag you like to join your collection and that’s where the styles and fashions come in. The quality of the leather and the details of the decoration helps sell the bag, plus, you want something that is going to last you a while! As with anything, cross body bags come in lots of shapes, sizes and materials. Cross-body bags come in so many styles and in future blogs I’ll look at some! Meanwhile feel free to browse Lavky.com collection for so many different cross-body bags varieties that come in various forms as messenger bags, traveller bags, embossed and embroidered handbags, and much more!
