The daily steal: Cross-body bag, $63

As an urban cyclist, the number one priority for a purse is that it must have cross-body capabilities. Weaving through cab drivers and jaywalking tourists is just that much harder when clutching for a shoulder bag’s dear little life. This one, ($63, topshop.com) fits the bill very nicely, and while the canvas is great for summer, the leather makes it an easy transition into fall.
