If you’re a regular follower of mine, you know I love a great bag strap. They are so easy to clip on a favorite bag, and they always add style and color. I find that they elevate the look immediately!
I mix and match them with all types of bags and all types of outfits and have so much fun styling them.
Plus, I LOVE wearing a bag cross body. Being hands free is something that I’ve become quite accustomed to, and I pretty much no longer carry a bag if I can’t wear it cross body.
So…now that I’ve professed my love for a cross body bag strap, I want to share some of my favorites that are BACK! IN! STOCK!
BAG STRAP #1: EMBROIDERED MEDALLION BAG STRAP
If I was forced to pick just 1 bag strap, it would be this embroidered medallion bag strap. I love it paired with my big LV, but it also looks great with a plain cognac or black bag as well.
I love it.
white tee / cable cardigan option / huggie earrings / embroidered medallion bag strap / raw hem ankle jeans/ neutral mules with gold chain
It looks great paired with colors too.

BAG STRAP #2: CAMO BAG STRAP
This is my newest strap in my collection, and I think it’s so much fun! This camo bag strap is classic a camo pattern with classic camo colors, but then it surprises us with the pop of red. And I’m in love with the pop of red!
This is what I wore on my travel day on my girl’s trip to Charleston! I think wearing your purse cross body on a travel day is NECESSARY.
tunic swing sweater / camo bag strap / must have earrings / SPANX faux leather leggings in PETITE / dolce vita sneakers
It looks great on both bags.
crewneck sweater / chunky gold hoops / heart necklace / striped tote and camo bag strap / jagged hem slim jeans / chelsea boots

BAG STRAP #3: WAVE BAG STRAP
I’ve had this wave bag strap for a couple of years now, and I still pull it out frequently. It looks awesome paired with so many different types of outfits.
Even on the occasion I don’t wear my bag cross body, the strap still adds style to the outfit.
black tee / cardigan / gold hoops / blingy necklace / bracelet / black jeans / leopard belt / wave bag strap / neutral booties
It of course looks great paired with a classic black tee and jeans.

And it was a no brainer with this mocha cardi and black jeans.

It even pairs well with a lounge wear outfit. #ifidosaysomyself
Of course it looks awesome with my creamy colored swingy sweater.

BAG STRAP #5: BLACK AND WHITE STRIPE STRAP
This black and white strap is the most basic of all the straps I’m sharing today, but it still manages to offer a graphic punch.

So, are you a big strap girl like me? If so, which strap today is your favorite? And if you’re not typically a bag strap girl, doesn’t this post want to make you give a bag strap a whirl?!?
Click HERE to see all of the bag straps they have to offer at Social Threads. You’re sure to find one you love!
Before you go, if you aren’t familiar with Social Threads, you need to check them out! They carry THML tops and dresses that I love (but they always sell out quickly, so I rarely feature them on the blog). And look at the denim shorts they just restocked. SO FLIPPING CUTE! They said they were SUPER popular last year, so they were quite excited to add to them to the shop again. Mine are on their way to me (I sized up). I’m going to be ready to roll once it’s shorts season!
Okay, that’s it for today! See you back here tomorrow!

How do you think it’d look if I clipped my key fob or wallet to a strap? ??
Sheaffer says
I think that’s a great idea. #fashion
AngieN says
I am a regular follower and pulled up your blog this morning to specifically search for bag straps because I knew you had mentioned them before. You must have read my mind! lol! Just what I was looking for today.
Sheaffer says
NO WAY! Love hearing stories like this, Angie. I LOVE A GREAT BAG STRAP!!!!!! xoxo
Carole says
All of these are so cute!! Have you come across any thinner bag straps? I bought a small Coach crossbody at a resale shop and the original strap was in bad shape, so thought I’d get a strap like these but they are too wide, just doesn’t look right with a small bag. Just curious if you’ve seen anywhere that had different width straps!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Carole! Great question! Sadly, I can’t recall seeing any that are thinner, but I will definitely keep my eyes peeled. xoxo
Carole says
Thanks! I love your blog by the way!! Always so cheerful and great info!! ??
Sheaffer says
Awwww! Thank you SO MUCH, Carole! That means a lot! xoxo
Jill says
What style LV bag do you carry? A LV is on my wish list and I either want a Neverful or a style like you have that can be worn with a long strap. Thank you.
Sheaffer says
Hi, Jill! Mine is 10 years old, but I believe it’s called The Sully. Not sure if they even make it anymore, but I love it and would highly recommend it! xoxo
