It’s officially time to trade in summer’s totes and straw beach bags for something more structured and sophisticated: long-handled and cross-body bags are the new secret weapon amongst the A-list. The hands-free accessories hold the key to Diane Kruger and Alexa Chung’s nonchalant looks. So if you’re looking for a way to adhere to the ‘less is more’ rule, then invest in these. While Celine, Hermes and Chanel are among the bags on show here, cheaper versions can be found at Raoul and Zara.
