Crossbody bags mean you can go hands-free while still carrying around all your everyday essentials and if you pick the right design, they can be a really stylish addition to your outfit. River Island fans have been flocking to the brand's website to pick up the Weave Bucket Crossbody Bag ahead of summer as it looks incredibly similar to The Leather Mini Bucket Bag from Marc Jacobs - only over £300 cheaper.

The bucket crossbody bag is rather spacious so it could be the ideal companion for all kinds of occasions. We can see it being worn to a festival and at the weekend, but equally taken to work or on holiday. It looks a lot more expensive than its £38 price tag and it has a detachable strap should you wish to switch the style up.

Shoppers have six designs to choose from, including a vibrant orange, navy and tan. There's even a monochrome raffia version which is bang on trend, as well a metallic gold option that is seriously unique.

The bag features gold hardware and a grab top handle alongside the longer crossbody strap, so it an be slung over your shoulder, across your body or held in hand. It also has a popper fastening for extra security, however items may still slip out if it is tipped upside down. If you prefer more coverage to keep your belongings safe, consider this John Lewis Jute Crossbody Bucket Bag. Priced at £55 it has a weave effect as well as a bucket silhouette.

We're also big fans of this Faux Leather Crossbody Bag from Marks and Spencer. Elegant and understated, it's no surprise that this crossbody bag is a bestseller, earning over 400 glowing reviews on their website. It comes in black, tan and a textured stone style, with many people saying it looks similar to a Celine handbag, but for thousands cheaper.

You can shop the River Island Weave Bucket Cross Body Bag here, or John Lewis have also discounted a few designer Michael Kors bags by an impressive amount. The Michael Kors Eliza Tote Bag was £390 and is now £195, available in black, brown, cream and green.
