The appeal of a purse that lets you stash your wallet, keys, lipstick, and other essentials while leaving your hands free is obvious, so it’s no wonder the best crossbody bags never go out of style. Plus, when the look can range from chic and understated to loud and trend-setting, there’s a lot to play with. Either direction you take, the easy-going style transitions seamlessly from brunch to the office to a night out — hands-free means perfect for dancing, after all.

Those seeking to channel the moment can consider a slouchy design à la the aughts, a logo-splashed sport-inspired bag, or a crossbody that pulls double duty as a belt bag. When timeless is more your vibe, lean into saddle bags and quilted leather — or opt for modern classics like Marc Jacobs’s Snapshot or a mini version of Mansur Gavriel’s now-iconic Bucket tote. And since most of these come in a rainbow of colors, the options have your Pantone trends all covered, from vibrant reds and yellows to comforting browns and blues.

Whether you’re channeling the runways sending out elevated practicality or all-out celebration, there’s a crossbody bag here you’ll love to carry — and you won’t believe that these are all available on Amazon.
