I Paid £100 For The COS Crossbody Bag I Wear Every Single Day — Now It’s In The Sale For Under £65

When I stumbled into COS last year completely accidentally (it was a windy day) and with no intention of buying anything (I had already eye-balled seven things on the website) I didn't know I was about to discover my dream everyday bag. Until I made eye contact with COS' Crossbody bag, I didn't know what was missing from my life. Sure, I was the proud owner of Uniqlo's viral cross-body nylon bag, but nothing comes close to the chicness of COS' iteration. Its fits every one of my possessions, is 100% leather and comes in an wide spectrum of wonderful shades, from an ever-chic chocolate brown, to a vibrant red. Now, the crossbody is a fabulous £65 in the Black Friday sales. For context - I forked out £100 on mine. No regrets.

It was only after I bought my dream bag that I realised - nope - I hadn't discovered a hidden gem. In fact, I was late to the trend. The COS Crossbody bag is loved by every fashion editor/influencer/fashion-conscious individual under the sun, and it's plain to see why. It goes with every single item in my wardrobe, has wide, comfortable straps and a smooth grain leather which will last years. The crossbody has firmly solidified itself as a cult high street item, and a core part of the COS collection. And now, thanks to the COS Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale, you can you can get it for just £65.

While COS has kept the black, chocolate and khaki versions of the bag full price (heavy sigh), the Cream Crossbody now has 40% off in the Black Friday sale this Cyber Monday, while the Beige Crossbody bag has 25% off. Both shades serve as brilliant accents for your autumn/winter wardrobe, offering a pop of colour in an otherwise moody backdrop of blacks, browns and burgundies.

Shop the COS crossbody in the sale while you can.
