Take your belongings everywhere in this black cross-body bag with California-inspired patches—it has summer written all over it.
You can also pick up a patch from Urban Outfitters and accessorize whatever you like. We love this exclusive vase of roses by L.A.-based artist and designer Francisco Reyes Jr., who also goes by the name of Never Made.
