A Cross-Body Bag is litterally a bag where the strap goes, diagonally, across the body. The strap of the bag rests on one shoulder and the bag itself rests on the opposite side of the body. In this way they differ from handbags (including totes), which have shorter handles to be held by hand or over the forearm.
