For the hip and stylish gal who is constantly on the go, it can be an adventure itself to find yourself a fashionable bag that will look good and allow you to carry all your essentials. I was browsing through Etsy and came across this eye catching messenger bag in a to die for kelly green.

Earlier this week I talked about the travel friendly Lesportsac bag and while that little cross-body bag is well… little, it’s not practical if you’re the type of gal who has more things to carry around ‘just in case’. I’m one of those ‘just in case’ types myself so I can appreciate a cute, not too big, not too small messenger bag.

Let’s face it, there are days when we can get away with carrying a teensy little wristlet or clutch purse…
And then there are days when we need to carry our whole lives in our bags!
Are you stuck with a schlumpy backpack?  Of course not!  The cross-body bag has an extra long strap that allows you to loop the strap over one shoulder, and across your body.  Your bag should rest on your waist or hip, keeping your hands free.
