It’s always so cool to see people with very different styles than mine pick out things I shrug at and wind up looking awesome in them. Sometimes it gives me ideas of what I want to do; more often it’s just neat to see different ways of doing things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222467 Thu, 09 Sep 2021 10:57:43 +0000 April 2222467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I now have several lightweight bags on their way to me - you all introduced me to brands I didn't know, so thank you for helping me to solve this problem! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222370 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 22:12:35 +0000 Roberta 2222370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also recommend Sherpani - I have two, pictured below, and use them constantly (bad shoulders and neck). They have fantastic colors and prints, are reasonably priced, and are machine washable.</p> <p>I also want to mention my latest acquisition, the orange Waterfly sling bag below. I bought it for hikes, and it is definitely sporty looking, but was cheap as chips and has this EXTREMELY handy phone pocket on the front strap.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222330 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 20:04:38 +0000 Anonymous 2222330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for Baggalini! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222326 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 19:14:03 +0000 Anonymous 2222326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use small crossbody bags all day every day. &nbsp;Leather is heavy but looks nice. &nbsp;I like Bagalinni and other fabric bags. &nbsp;Straps that are nylon do not seem to pill fabrics as much as a chain or leather. &nbsp;I like several pockets in order to separate my large sized iPhone and smaller glucose meter. &nbsp;I often also carry a tube of glucose tablets for an emergency and tissues and a mask. &nbsp;Very occasionally I will also carry a credit card, drivers license, insurance cards and a bit of cash, keys and sunglasses.any more than that and I need a second, larger bag. &nbsp;Think fabric crossbody bags, especially nylon </p> <p>I will look for Kipling although all of mine are second hand. I few are beautiful embroidered silk with a silk cord strap.a local artist makes and&nbsp;sells &nbsp;beautifully designed bags ( Maruca). . &nbsp;A vertical bag is easier to access if it has a top opening than a horizontal bag. &nbsp;Make sure there is a closure, usually a zipper..</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222323 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 18:32:44 +0000 Inge 2222323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Yes, I have the same problem, and was also going to suggest Kipling bags. I have the two below, a small and a medium size (You can still overload them, but if you only do card case, phone and keys, that shouldn't be a problem, I think). I'm also super happy with my nylon Tumi.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222320 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 18:20:19 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2222320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Other fabrics that might be less weight </p> <p>Mesh <a href="https://m-en.zalando.de/blanche-crossover-bag-across-body-bag-stella-blw51h003-m11.html" rel="nofollow">https://m-en.zalando.de/blanch.....3-m11.html</a></p> <p><a href="https://m-en.zalando.de/jost-handbag-red-jo551h06g-g11.html" rel="nofollow">https://m-en.zalando.de/jost-h.....g-g11.html</a> (260 grams)</p> <p>Crochet <a href="https://m-en.zalando.de/parfois-crossbody-bag-bahia-m-across-body-bag-beige-p0g51h0wm-b11.html" rel="nofollow">https://m-en.zalando.de/parfoi.....m-b11.html</a></p> <p>Satin <a href="https://m-en.zalando.de/alberta-ferretti-shoulder-bag-across-body-bag-grey-af351h00u-t11.html" rel="nofollow">https://m-en.zalando.de/albert.....u-t11.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222318 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 18:06:31 +0000 April 2222318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You people are wonderful.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222316 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 18:02:22 +0000 Minaminu 2222316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Longchamp does some nylon bags in different shapes and very light! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222314 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 18:01:51 +0000 Cardiff girl 2222314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kipling would be my suggestion too.l have a navy and cream stripy cross body bag from them and it is &nbsp;my go to bag for summer as it’s very lightweight,has many useful pockets and is very easy to keep clean as it’s nylon but doesn’t look cheap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222310 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 17:45:43 +0000 JAileen 2222310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to Kipling, and to Baggallini, too. &nbsp;Macy’s has a variety of both. &nbsp;Of the two Kipling might be a little lighter. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222307 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 17:23:33 +0000 Angie 2222307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try a small Kipling bag from Belgium.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222306 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 17:22:33 +0000 ANewMindset 2222306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought a casual addidas crossbody bag at Nordstrom that is super lightweight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222292 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 15:47:44 +0000 Neelie 2222292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Check out the Kipling bags - many sizes and formats in a lightweight nylon.<br />Here is the selection from The Bay in Canada as an example.&nbsp; As a bonus I find them very durable.</p> <p>&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.thebay.com/c/women/handbags/crossbody-bags-1/kipling?srule=featured_newest">https://www.thebay.com/c/women.....red_newest</a> </p> <p>If you click on the Details for the item it provides the weight.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222291 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 15:44:11 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2222291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Baggilini was my first thought too. Googling a little, it seems that’s what most places recommend, though I came across a couple Tumis and a bunch of Vera Bradley (which I expect would make you gag) at Zapatos. </p> <p>Why don’t more places list weight of bags? I’ve heard other women complain about that as a factor in their search. One place that weights are always taken seriously is in outdoor gear. Could you deal with the style of this one? It’s 6.7 oz <a href="https://www.rei.com/rei-garage/product/204786/pacsafe-daysafe-anti-theft-slim-crossbody-bag-womens" rel="nofollow">https://www.rei.com/rei-garage.....bag-womens</a>.

My current bag is Derek Alexander. Not as cute as the many lovely bags other Fabbers sport, but kinder to my back and neck. :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222286 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 15:21:13 +0000 Aquamarine 2222286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two Kate Spade (Jackson Street— gabriele) leather cross body bags and find them very lightweight.</p> <p>And because I was curious, I weighed one and it came in at a bit over half a pound (.6) on my trusty kitchen scale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ultra-lightweight-crossbody-bags#post-2222285 Wed, 08 Sep 2021 15:15:32 +0000 ChristelJ 2222285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How aggravating.
