Every woman needs a stylish cross-body bag to complete her weekend wardrobe, so you can bet we were pleased to spot that trusty John Lewis & Partners is now selling an affordable option for under £40.
Not only that, but the classic Koko Leather Cross Body Bag is available in four colours, including this spring's hottest hue, yellow. It also comes in classic black, bright green and bold teal.
The smooth leather bag looks sleek and chic, with a front flap that closes thanks to a fuss-free magnetic fastening.
While petite, the bag includes three useful compartments, including an interior slot for your cards, and there's also an extra slip pocket on the bag so there's plenty of room for all your handbag essentials.
The versatile accessory's strap can also be adjusted to sit around your waist like an on-trend belt bag, so you'll definitely get plenty of wear out of it.
