Blog: Crossroads Style

If you’ve been scrolling through the gram lately, you’ve probably noticed a resurgence of classic designer handbags featured in #ootds (outfit of the day)! Monogrammed styles and smaller silhouettes that we saw drift away in the early 2000’s are back and are trendier than ever! In fact, some of these cult-classic handbags are so sought-after lately that designers themselves have been bringing some of their most-iconic styles back in rotation (for example, Dior’s chic saddle bag). Designer handbags are definitely an investment piece and purchasing one from a current season, direct from designer, will easily cost you a pretty penny. Luckily for us, vintage is in right now and it’s just as chic to own a bag from a past season as it is to own something more modern.
If you’ve been thinking about purchasing a designer gem, I highly recommend checking out the designer handbag selection at your local Crossroads! People are constantly cleaning out their wardrobes and are selling or trading previously loved and gently used styles that could easily rival that new designer piece you’ve been lusting after! Plus, shopping designer at Crossroads means you’ll be scoring a timeless piece at a fraction of the price! Crossroads always has a wonderful selection of designer handbags that are either kept behind the register or in a glass case. From Ferragamo to Louis Vuitton, there are plenty of amazingly priced handbags that are the perfect option for elevating your wardrobe and for adding a luxe flair to any outfit!
With the demand for designer goods at an all-time high this season, be sure to keep an eye out for timeless gems amidst the more current styles next time you head to Crossroads! Most designer styles that are in store are quickly posted the gram as well, so be sure to turn on post notifications for @CrossroadsTrading on Instagram, that way you never miss out on an amazing #Crossroadsfind! Here are some of the gorgeous handbags that I’ve seen on the Crossroads Instagram lately that will instantly take your style game to the next level!

There’s no better way to make a fashion statement at work than with a bag that does all the talking. Whether you need something that’s big enough to fit a laptop or versatile enough to take you to happy hour, there’s a style that will fit all of your office needs.

Here are our favorite handbags for work to inspire your next purchase:

The great thing about a dome satchel handbag is that it looks great in any size, whether it’s a mini bag or a large one. Stick to a neutral color like black, brown or grey for a classic and timeless feel.

Tote bags carry a lot without losing their structure. You can easily throw in a cardigan for when the office gets chilly or a spare change of clothes for hitting the gym.

Can a Little Black Bag officially become a thing already? Every fashionista should have a simple black bag readily available. Not only is it professional enough for work, it can transition easily from 9-5 to happy hour with coworkers afterwards.

A versatile bag that can double as a backpack or shoulder bag is a match made in heaven.

Nobody does trendy and functional bags as well as brands like Dagne Dover. Their bags are known for helping you stay organized with features like a pocket for your laptop, a place for your metro card, and a ring for your keys.

Remember when you were little and how easy packing for school was with a backpack? Well, if you haven’t hopped on the upgraded backpack trend yet, you’re surely missing out.
