Prediction: This New COS Bag Will Be Impossible to Get Your Hands on Very Soon

I don't say this lightly, but I think there might be a new trending COS bag on the scene. After the brand's
Swing Crossbody Bag (£110) reached new heights of popularity this year, COS has just released the style's sleek older sister, featuring a long shoulder strap and a generous pouch. For its slouchy silhouette, spacious shape and supple leather finish, this grown-up option is set to become an everyday staple amongst the fashion crowd. In fact, it already is. I keep seeing influencer Louisa Hatt wearing hers and forever having to share the link with her followers on IG.
To me, this bag looks genuinely designer, and whilst it's still a decent investment at £180, it's significantly more affordable than its high-end counterparts. Ideal for a trip to the office or a dash around town, the quiet black bag forgoes loud colours or ostentatious design, resulting in a pared-back bag that taps into the fundamentals of luxury design. Plus, it's practical too—Hatt assured her followers that "it could easily fit a laptop."
If, like me, you appreciate timeless design and comfortable, functional fashion, then you've come to the right place. Read on to discover the new-season style the Who What Wear UK team is already shopping, as well as our other favourite COS bags.
