I've Searched Everywhere—These Are the Most Expensive-Looking Crossbody Bags

Luckily, we've scoured the internet and whittled down the best, most expensive-looking cross-body bags out there. From COS' bestselling crescent-shaped style to Other Stories' trend-led creations, scroll to see the ones worthy of your on-the-go essentials.
