Editor-In-Chief Wilson Lim: The Padded Cassette
I’ve a penchant for small bags because I like to be handsfree and not have my pockets stuffed while I’m on the move. As an advocate of non-black accessories, the striking green of this one ticks all the boxes for the type of bag I would want.

I already own the classic Pouch and thought “hey, that’s enough — you should be buying cat food instead” but when I fiddled around with this beauty on set, I was #sold.

Fashion Stylist & Writer Manfred Lu
I’ve always had a fond liking for all things 1990s bags — the simple, off the shoulder, decently sized variants that holds nothing but your phone (which is fine for me considering that’s all I usually carry out).
This nappa leather crossbody that encompasses the brand’s iconic Intrecciato weaving technique is everything that era was great for, without all the unnecessary logo mania — which is why it’s the perfect bag for me.
