Fashion week is crazy hectic. With a plethora of shows and events to attend, style setters require a bag that’s head-turning but also practical, making the cross-body silhouette one of the most commonly worn. Easy to sling on and go while keeping hands free, it’s a no-brainer. Our favorite this season is the navy blue leather convertible bag from GiGi New York, the hero item in our Fall Box of Style. The multi-tasking wonder will also stash your laptop for day and convert to a clutch for evening—it’s an essential for on-the-go ladies.
