During the week, I tend to accumulate embarrassingly large quantities of things in my oversized purses. Receipts, water bottles, coins, etc. all find their way into the bottom of my bag, and quite frankly, my back and I have had enough. Instead of carting my laptop and other non-essentials around on errands, I’m going to stick with the bare minimum – lip gloss, cell phone, wallet, keys. That’s why I’ve decided to ditch the giant bags each weekend and switch to a more joint-friendly cross-body purse when I can lighten up a little bit. This bag from Marc by Marc Jacobs has everything I’m looking for in a weekend bag, with none of the bulk of my usual picks.
