Say hello to your new favorite carryall. Carla Kiley, a plus-size influencer and fashion designer, writes, “as a plus size woman, crossbody bags aren’t always one size fits all. But this bag hits right at my hip - and I’m 5’10” and size 20. It’s compact and lightweight but still holds a decent amount of stuff.” This quilted crossbody bag features an adjustable strap, a large outside pocket and a removable tassel.
