Bags built to carry a real day
A bag that doesn't hold what you actually carry gets abandoned in a closet within a month.
How to know it's the right one
- Put your own things in it in the store. A bag that fits a wallet and a phone but not sunglasses and a water bottle is a going out bag, not an everyday one.
- Check the strap drop against your coat. A crossbody strap sized for a tee sits wrong over a jacket.
- Woven and leather age differently. Woven softens and forgives. Leather marks and then looks better for it.
What customers buy in twos
The Westlyn Woven Bum Bag has been one of our best selling pieces of any kind for two years straight, because it holds far more than it looks like it should. Beyond it, small woven pouches and clutch wristlets are what customers buy in twos and threes.
What size bag do I actually need every day?
Big enough for a wallet, a phone, sunglasses and a water bottle, small enough that you don't fill it with things you never use. For most women that's a medium crossbody or a small tote. Anything larger becomes storage rather than a bag. Empty your current one onto our counter. We'll size it properly.
