Sarah Jessica Parker is keeping her fans happy. 

The actress stepped outside the theater to greet fans and sign autographs after her Plaza Suite show in London on January 19. The 58-year-old kept warm in a black coat and gray beanie, which she styled with light blue jeans and black boots. She also had a backpack strapped on, plus the crossbody bag that appears to be the same one she carried at least two times last year — once while strolling through New York City and then again at the airport. 

So, why does she keep opting for the fuss-free style? We can’t know for sure, but this time around, it’s probably so she could have her hands free to wave and sign autographs. Otherwise, it’s probably because they’re an easy way to keep all your essentials organized and still be able to pick up your phone, open a door, or take a sip of a drink, without dropping things everywhere. And in the winter, you won’t have to constantly adjust your straps over a bulky coat. 

Crossbody Bags Inspired by Sarah Jessica Parker 

Katie Holmes also just went back to a compact crossbody bag after toting around bigger bags, while other celebrities, like Jennifer Aniston, Mindy Kaling, Taylor Swift, and Jennifer Lawrence, have been carrying the smaller style for months now. Blake Lively and Jessica Alba have even been spotted with hands-free phone accessories. 

Gladdon Crossbody Bag, $20 (Save 26%)

While SJP’s go-to bag has a thicker strap, you might be partial to a thinner one for dressier days — which this Gladdon purse has. The leather-looking material is also more nighttime-friendly than a casual canvas bag, and it comes in 16 colors, if green doesn’t match your vibe.

One shopper, who left a five-star rating, said it’s their “favorite crossbody bag.” They continued, “It's just big enough to fit all the essentials. I'll choose this purse over any of my designer bags every time.” 

Draper James Daisy Crossbody, $34 (Save 60%)

At Zappos, you can get this bag from Reese Witherspoon’s brand, Draper James, for 60 percent off. It has feminine floral appliques to liven up your winter wardrobe, and it comes with a chain that you can wear on your wrist or arm when you need a break from the crossbody craze. The navy color is probably the best for the cold months, though spring break is coming sooner than you think — for that, there’s beige and champagne. 

Lululemon City Adventurer Crossbody Bag, $39 (Save $19)

You could also opt for the Lululemon City Adventurer Crossbody Bag, which is made with water-repellent fabric, meaning it’s a sound choice for those who experience snow or live in perpetually rainy climates. But if it’s genuine leather you’re looking for, this Kate Spade purse and this Hobo bag cost $79 and $110, respectively.
