It's a satchel... Indiana Jones has one

Lately, satchels (across the body bags) have been displayed in the very front of stores. It's no surprise to me, since the bags really are incredibly convenient. I hate the responsibility and annoyance of having my purse hooked over my shoulder when I go out at night. Then, there's the ever frustrating experience of bringing a shoulder bag or tote to the movies, restaurants, or stadiums when there is no hook. One sure way to never lose your purse is to have it draped across your body, which is exactly the accommodation a satchel provides. If you are going to purchase a satchel, it is essential to love it, as it becomes a part of your outfit. It can replace long necklaces or other accessories, so try to find one that is basic enough to match many ensembles but still expresses your personal style.
