Weekend Styles with Tsuchiya Legacy Crossbody Bags

Dona and Tsubasa - A Tokyo-based couple

Tokyo-based couple Dona and Tsubasa, both models and influencers, have garnered a following with their popular YouTube channel @donatsuba, where they share the latest in fashion and lifestyle. We invited them to curate weekend outing looks, featuring the Tsuchiya Legacy Crossbody and the Tsuchiya Legacy Logo Crossbody in two sizes. Compact yet functional, these statement pieces add an effortlessly chic touch to any outfit.

Style 1: Casual Chic with the TSUCHIYA Legacy Crossbody

Tsubasa: "The first thing I noticed about this bag was its unique logo pattern—so I chose to keep my outfit very simple while placing a little more emphasis on my shoes. I usually match my bag of the day with an accessory, because that often grounds my look. Today, I’m pairing the Legacy Logo Crossbody with these brown leather shoes."

Dona: "Staying true to the weekend theme, I chose an outfit that’s casual but elegant. I wanted to avoid looking too formal, so I set a relaxed tone with the jumper, while bringing a feminine accent with the fitted skirt."

Style 2: Light & Classic with the TSUCHIYA Legacy Mini Crossbody

Tsubasa: "When the weather is bright and sunny, blue is a go-to color, to match that freshness—so I chose a light blue shirt with a relaxed fit. The Legacy Logo Mini Crossbody is perfect for day trips or a cafe stop. My mini water bottle nests perfectly in the bag, so it’s just the right size for your essentials."

Dona: "Since this bag has a classic design, I’m complementing it with a leather belt featuring a metal buckle, but I’m bringing a little personality by dressing it down with denim. I considered pairing it with chinos, but ultimately went with blue denim to match Tsubasa’s look."

Tsubasa: "We really enjoy playing off each other’s outfits, responding to each other’s fabric and color choices."

Choosing Joy Cultivates a Cherished Wardrobe

Dona: "When we shop for clothes and accessories, we try to choose pieces that bring us joy and excitement. I used to focus on versatility—but more often than not, that lead me to choose “safe” and sometimes even boring items. Once I began choosing things that brought joy, I started to really enjoy putting outfits together."

Tsubasa: "In the end, choosing items that delight you lead to longer use—they become cherished items because you enjoy them, which means you take better care of them. I enjoy limited editions because I prefer wearing something a little different. That’s why I love leather items; they evolve in unique ways, depending on how you use them." 

Dona: "Yes—even the scratches on your bag become special, because they make the bag uniquely yours."

The handkerchief Dona brought is a family heirloom handed down through three generations. The vibrant lemon motif stands out on the crisp, wrinkle-free fabric—a treasured item that continues to bring joy today.

Dona and Tsubasa each honor their individual tastes while complementing each other’s styles to create something fresh. Their passion for fashion has led them to select cherished pieces that will continue to bring joy to their wardrobes for years to come.
