The cross body bag has become the essential MUST HAVE for all fashionistas this year. They are a fashion-forward statement that exudes confidence allowing you to wear your purse and not have your purse wear you. Cross bodies are not only fashionable, but also functional and cross over easily from day to night (no pun intended 
) especially the Dylan Cross Body Clutch by Linea Pelle.
Constructed of luxurious soft Italian leather and adorned with gunmetal hardware, this bag offers two chic, casual looks: a cross body or a clutch (hence the name “Cross Body Clutch”). However for this review, I decided to test out the versatility and functionality of this bag as a cross body. AND what better way to test its’ durability than in a energetic setting like E3 hosted by Electronic Arts at the Los Angeles Convention Center in downtown Los Angeles, CA.
The Electronic Entertainment Expo (AKA E3) is an annual trade show that showcases the latest and greatest in video games and electronics. This entails walking endlessly from booth to booth, maneuvering among thousands of people, and having tons of promotional propaganda being thrown at you in all directions. Which means having a comfortable bag to carry around while trying to enjoy your self is KEY!! Fortunately for me I had the Dylan Cross Body Clutch, which worked out amazing.
In my bag I was able to hold my digital camera, keys, parking stub, iPhone, bulky wallet, business cards from vendors, coins and cash, and still had room for more. The magnetic closure made me feel safe knowing that all my valuables, especially my camera and iPhone, were safe and made it SO ACCESSIBLE to grab either when I needed update my FB status or snap a quick picture. I also loved having the outside zipper pocket to stick promotional cards and buttons from each booth. The inside pocket was also perfect for holding the money that I wanted to have easy access to for food and parking. The zippers used on this bag have a strong teeth grip that firmly keeps the inside and outside pockets securely closed.
Overall I give the LP Dylan Cross Body Clutch an overwhelming 5 star rating!!
I think it’s a great affordable investment piece for its versatility and style, and it worked divinely under the intense pressure of the convention setting. Pre-order yours today at http://www.lpcollection.com/Dylan-Cross-Body-Clutch-Gunmetal.html.
