1. A cross-body bag featuring the daintiest little bumblebee so cute, it could pass as a designer bag.
Promising review: "This is a beautiful purse when you don't want to carry too much stuff or if you are a mom that still needs room for her personal belongings and not stashing your things into the diaper bag. The little bag itself feels really soft and looks pretty but classy. It has plenty of space in the main compartment and the other two are good for keeping your hand cream, lip balm, sunscreen, glasses, cards holder etc. All I can say is you won't regret buying this one." —Gaby&Ricardo
Get it from Amazon for $16.98 (available in 44 colors/styles).
2. A lightweight, faux-leather tote with an overabundance of room so your must-haves will be with you always. If you NEED a bag with a solid amount of pockets — you've just met your match.
Promising review: "I honestly was very scared to order such a plain purse. But let me tell you it may look thin and nonsturdy, but it has been the best every day purse. I literally shove everything in my purse, so much space and soo sturdy. Honestly who needs all these brand name purses when there are these affordable amazing purses that last and match everything. It has gone through trips, school, work etc. It honestly is the best purse I have ever had. I have an LV purse who I thought was going to replace this purse, and let me tell you I returned to this one for its accessibility. BEST PURSE HANDS-DOWN FOR AN EVERYDAY PURSE!!! and you can dress it up to make it yours!" —Leslie A

9. A Stoney Clover Lane fanny pack so carrying your essentials can be hands-free, and you won't have to worry about overpacking a big bag that you definitely don't need. These will make any outfit and your next selfie look so chic.
I adore my fanny pack so much that I actually own three. The return of the fanny pack has been one of the highlights of 2020 for me, and I'm so glad that this lightweight bag option has made a comeback. It carries just my minimum essentials — AKA my phone, hand sanitizer, mask, keys, and card holder. I am a repeat offender when it comes to using a large handbag and thus feeling the need to use up every ounce of room in it when I genuinely just don't need that many things. The fanny pack life has changed the game for me.
