You can’t go far wrong with the colour or texture of your arm candy this season, so long as it’s a satchel style, and for a designer-esque piece at a purse-friendly price, we love Pied a Terre’s boxy canvas cross body bag.

The main body comes in a muted natural canvas – versatile for whatever you pair it with – while the mock croc leather strap and trim come in a complementary taupe tone.

But the real key to making this bag stand next to its designer contempories? The chunky gold buckle detailing, which lifts this boxy accessory from its humble high street origins to rub shoulders with the satchels that walked the catwalk.

We’ll be wearing ours across the body with cute playsuits and flats – snap yours up for some casual summer cool!
