When I first caught a glimpse of Jennifer Lopez‘s newest outfit, I zeroed in on her Gucci crossbody bag because it’s incredibly chic but most importantly practical. However, it also reminded me of a TikTok video I made (which happened to go viral) about 5 things royals never wear. At the top of the list—you guessed it—were crossbody bags.
