When choosing an everyday handbag, compare its dimensions, handle length, compartments and fastening. A smaller bag may suit your phone, wallet and keys, while larger carry bags offer a different amount of space.

Women's crossbody bags are designed to be worn with a strap across the body, offering an alternative to hand-carried bags.

City Beach carries crossbody bags from Ava And Ever, Mooloola, Nike, Rusty, Roxy and Santa Cruz. Styles include the Ava And Ever Callie Crossbody Bag, Nike Commute Crossbody Bag and selected nylon sling and messenger bags.

Compare compact crossbody bags with larger sling styles according to the belongings you plan to carry. Check the strap adjustment and closure, as these vary between designs.

The collection includes Nike Heritage and Elemental backpacks, Roxy Shadow Swell designs, Rip Curl Ozone backpacks and selected Ava And Ever cord backpacks.

Backpacks vary in capacity, number of compartments, shoulder strap design and overall dimensions. If you need to carry a laptop or other specific item, check the bag's measurements and any listed laptop compartment dimensions.

Women's bum bags are compact bags that can be worn around the waist or, depending on the design, across the body.

City Beach stocks bum bags from Nike, Ava And Ever, Rusty, RVCA, Santa Cruz and other brands.

These bags offer a smaller silhouette than traditional backpacks or totes. Check the strap length, compartment size and closure when shopping for a festival, concert or casual day out.

Women's Gym Bags and Sports Duffels

Explore women's gym bags, including Nike Brasilia duffle bags in different capacities.

The range includes selected Nike Brasilia XS 24L, Small 40L, Medium 60L and Large 95L duffle bags.

These capacities help distinguish the relative size of each bag. Check the exact product dimensions and storage features when choosing a bag for clothing, shoes and other gym essentials.

Explore women's wheeled travel bags and the wider travel bags collection.

City Beach carries wheeled luggage from Rip Curl, Roxy, Billabong, Mooloola, Ava And Ever and Volcom, including different small and large travel bag styles.

Unlike traditional duffle bags, wheeled travel bags feature wheels for rolling luggage. Compare the dimensions, capacity, handle design and empty weight when choosing between sizes.

For flights, check the airline's current cabin and checked-baggage requirements. A product described as a small travel bag is not automatically approved as carry-on luggage.

Reusable Shopping Bags and Bag Accessories

City Beach also stocks eco bags and reusable shopping bags, including printed carry bags.

The term eco bag is used as a product category. Environmental features, including recycled content or material certifications, should be checked against the individual product description.

For decorative details, explore bag accessories, including keyrings, bag charms and selected novelty accessories from Karyn In LA and other brands.

What's the Difference Between a Tote, Crossbody Bag and Backpack?

The main difference is how each bag is designed to be carried.

Tote bags generally have two handles and a larger main compartment. They are commonly carried by hand or over the shoulder, depending on handle length.

Crossbody bags have a strap intended to run across the body. They come in compact and larger shapes, including sling and messenger-inspired designs.

Backpacks generally feature two shoulder straps and are worn on the back, while bum bags are smaller waist or crossbody-style bags.

These categories can overlap, so compare the individual strap arrangement, dimensions and closure when selecting a bag.

How to Choose the Right Women's Bag Size

Start by considering what you want to carry. Different bag sizes suit different belongings, from a phone and wallet to clothing, towels and travel essentials.

For compact everyday storage, compare mini handbags, crossbody bags and bum bags. For larger items, consider totes, backpacks or duffle bags.

Check the height, width and depth listed on the product page, along with any capacity measurement in litres. Also consider the opening size, as a bag's external dimensions do not guarantee that a particular item will fit inside.

For backpacks and work bags, check whether the individual product has a suitable compartment for a laptop or other device. For travel bags, consider the overall dimensions and luggage restrictions.

Women's Bag Materials, Straps and Closures

City Beach's women's bags range includes different fabric constructions and finishes, such as nylon, canvas-style fabrics, corduroy, macrame, straw-look designs and woven textures.

Selected styles include the Rusty Free Run Nylon Sling Bag, Ava And Ever cord backpacks, Mooloola macrame bags and straw-style carry bags.

Bag features vary and can include adjustable straps, shoulder handles, zip closures, internal pockets, external compartments and decorative hardware.

Not every bag includes the same features. Check the individual product description for material composition, lining, fastening, dimensions and care instructions.

For beach and travel use, confirm any stated water-resistant or waterproof features rather than assuming a synthetic fabric or zip closure will protect belongings from water.

Women's Bag Colours, Prints and Styles

City Beach's women's bags collection includes black, brown, white, blue, pink, green, grey, red and neutral colours, alongside gold, silver and multicoloured designs.

The range features plain handbags, printed backpacks, floral beach bags, stripes, graphic logos, woven textures and decorative finishes.

Black and brown bags offer different neutral styling options, while white and straw-look bags can complement lighter summer outfits. Printed and colourful bags can add contrast to plain clothing.

For a coordinated look, match a bag with the colours in your outfit. Alternatively, use a contrasting colour or printed bag as a statement accessory.

How to Choose Women's Bags for Different Occasions

For everyday casual outfits, compare handbags, crossbody bags, backpacks and totes according to how much you carry and your preferred strap style.

For beach days, choose from the beach bag and tote collections. Larger bags can be useful when packing towels and clothing, but check the product's construction and intended use.

For gym sessions, compare Nike duffle bags in different capacities or a backpack if you prefer a different carrying style.

For festivals and concerts, compact crossbody bags and bum bags offer alternatives to larger totes. Always check the event's bag-size and entry restrictions.

For weekend trips and longer travel, explore overnight bags, duffles and wheeled luggage, paying attention to dimensions and capacity.

How to Style Women's Handbags, Totes and Backpacks

For everyday styling, pair compact handbags or crossbody bags with women's clothing, including denim jeans, casual tops and shorts.

For summer outfits, combine straw-look bags, macrame totes or casual shoulder bags with women's dresses, skirts or matching sets.

For beach days, style larger totes and beach bags with women's swimwear, beach cover-ups and sandals.

For sport-inspired or streetwear outfits, pair Nike or adidas backpacks with relaxed denim, graphic tees and women's sneakers or casual footwear.

Add bag charms or keyrings to selected bag styles for a decorative finish, making sure any accessory fastening is suitable for the bag.
