Like 'em all. I agree that the ps1 is the most impressive one so far but I can definitely find other ones to love at much lower price points.
The dkny one is cute and so is the Roots one. The J Crew bromptons bag is very pretty and substantial irl. The cross body strap hangs very low though.

I love my LV Mahina XS, it can be used as shoulder bag or messenger style. I have a miu miu (that found out Alexa Chung has it, too) that it's convertible from a clutch to a tote with long enough strap to be worn as a messenger.

I love the PS1 but I must settle for something way less expensive.
I am looking at this messenger style satchel from Hype.

I am kicking myself for not seeing that they had it at neimanmarcuslastcall.com during their 30% off columbus sale (that ended yesterday). With the $50 off code, it would have been about $120ish.

I adore cross-body bags (probably my favorite), and I can't get Il Bisonte out of my mind lately - there is a beautiful vintage one in the consignment store near my house, and it is amazingly well made and in top condition. Il Bisonte is usually quite expensive, but this one is a bargain.
It is taking all of my will power to not go buy it, since I know that I will use it a lot.
Other favorite cross-bodies: Balenciaga Folk, Town, and Velo; Jerome Dreyfuss Twee (regular & mini); Chloe Paraty Cross-body; PS1; Mulberry Alexa; Katherine Kwei Amber Switch; Alexander McQueen Faithful, JW Hulme Legacy ...and the list goes on, lol.

I believe ASOS has a bag VERY similar to the PS1 for much less, you should check it out!
I really like the Balenciaga Folk as a cross-body bag. Also there is a Cole Haan bag out right now that that can be hand-hand held, worn on the shoulder or used as a cross-body bag. The leather is really nice. I will try to post a picture of this bag later today.
Messenger bags aren't large enough for my liking, but here is my one of my favorite go-to convertible handbags for winter!
I love carrying this huge Prada deerskin instead of a manly briefcase, so I have one in black and one in brown.
They've survived rather nasty crushes and crunches in elevators, subways, cabs, airports, etc.

Here are a few photos of the Cole Haan crossbody I found recently. Sorry, after I took the photos I realized I hadn't snapped the snaps at the bottom of the bag but unsnapped bag and all, these photos should at least give you an idea of the style, lol. They had it in black, this brown, and a really nice green color at my local outlet last week.
