Shoulder bags are the epitome of functional fashion, so it’s no surprise that they’re a staple in many celebrities’ wardrobes, including those of Taylor Swift and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Oprah Winfrey is one fan of the hands-free trend — we’ve seen her carry bags over her shoulder on multiple occasions, the most recent example being on a trip to Jimmy Kimmel Live this week. Her gray saddle bag was the sweet spot for size: it’s compact but still roomy enough for on-the-go essentials.

To copy Oprah’s look, grab this $25 seat bag. Similar in size, the pouch can hold smartphones, wallets, car keys and more without being bulky. Its main compartment has a zipper closure that is covered by a flap on the seat with a magnetic button for added security. Plus, its adjustable crossbody strap is removable, so you can wear it as a clutch for dressier occasions like fall weddings or holiday parties.

This shoulder bag is the ultimate functional find. Much like a belt bag, the pouch straps around you, keeping your contents close instead of hanging off your shoulder. It’s a great option for quick errands or hiking, but many reviewers use it for travel.
One customer said: “I bought this because there are a lot of pockets where I travelled. I felt so safe wearing this.”
