Bag Lust: Printed Cross Body Bag


My favourite bags are cross body bags. Satchels are cute an' all, but if I don't have a long enough strap to throw them across me, I get frustrated. Being able to carry my stuff and have two hands to do things is very helpful. Clutch bags are my nemesis (ask any smoker, they'll tell you the same thing).

At first glance, this is just a normal brown satchel (and goodness knows, I've become smitten with a few of those recently), but look a little bit closer. It has the prettiest print on it. I love the kind of oily blue colours, and the design is very cute. Subtle, too. The bag isn't actually leather, but that might be a good thing - it's only £16 from Oasis. They're doing all sorts right at the moment, aren't they?

  1. Oasis are getting it so right I had to delete the Oasis app on my phone for fear of accidentally buying too much. This bag is very pretty (oh and their sunglasses are good - mine are still going strong after a year).

  2. That's very pretty. Do you know how big it is? I can't see any info on sizing on the website. Would it get a book in it? Too many hours on the train has meant that's become my criteria for buying bags!.

  3. I reckon you'd get a smallish paperback in it.

  7. Went to Oasis- they didn't have this bag but I spent loads of money on other things, it's true what you are saying, they are doing a lot of things right! (and I am broke now)

  8. This might be our most popular bag post! I was in Oasis yesterday and I couldn't find it (although I did find other nice things n there). But I'd be happy to order it online. If I didn't have a million brown leather bags already. Which I do.

    Damn.
