I can’t remember the last time a Derek Lam handbag caught my eye. In fact, I took a look at the Bag Bliss archives and it turns out I haven’t written about the bag designer Derek Lam since 2008! Has it really been that long? I stumbled across this lovely bag today and decided to renew my interest in this designer. Introducing the Derek Lam 10 Crosby Little Prince St. Marks Cross Body Bag!

There is just something about the Derek Lam Little Prince Handbag that lured me in. I think it might be the fringe. The extra long fringe has so much movement and sways with each step. I also like the bucket style, a bag trend that’s not going away anytime soon. Just keep in mind, this is a mini-size, not a full size bucket bag. Which is great for those minimal, essential only days. I don’t see this as a cross body bag and I probably wouldn’t wear it as such. I would use the wrist strap and carry it like a clutch instead! The pictures do not really do justice at all, this bag is stunning in real life.

The Derek Lam 10 Crosby Little Prince St Marks Cross Body Bag is available here at SHOPBOP, where it retails for $595
