Like the Weekender II Duffel Bag, no one could accuse this Weekender Print Crossbody of lacking in organizational qualities. Though significantly smaller than the average-sized duffel, the crossbody still has its fair share of pockets and other practical features.
We’re starting to hit the time of year where canvas material is on its way out of stores and replaced with fabrics like velvet and corduroy. With its floral cotton print, there’s no mistaking the Weekender Crossbody with a fall or winter accessory. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it during the last bit of warm weather or at least stock up for the spring.
My favorite part of the canvas print is the blend of colors. The yellows, blues, and greens on this version are just too pretty to ignore. This bag also comes in a darker color combo including fuchsia, which might be better at transitioning from summer to autumn, but personally I prefer the blues and greens.
The Weekender Print Crossbody is more than just a pretty purse, though. In addition to the front pouch, there’s exterior zippered storage and more zip and slip pockets inside. The style of the bag is flat, which makes it comfortable for crossbody carrying since it falls around the hip.
The long strap is detacable, though I’m not really sure why since that basically renders the bag useless. It’s not one of those convertible designs that becomes a clutch when you take off the strap, but I guess Fossil was going for a classic crossbody look with utilitarian style. This practical and pretty canvas handbag is admirably affordable at only $78.
