They say the bag makes the outfit. Afterall, you take it around every day with all your essentials, so it’s only right you choose the right one for the occasion. As summer approaches it is time to figure what handbags will be in rotation and which ones to put away. Never fear, I am here to help! 

The right handbag can elevate your look by adding the right amount of spice. Here’s a round of the 5 bags I think are perfect for summer. You will be drawing on them for the different events, brunch, or vacation that you plan to part take in. 

 1. Rattan, Woven, Wicker or Straw bag

These would be number one on the list because they are great for vacation and when you want to add a resort vibe to your look. This season they come in a variety of shapes and styles. All I am saying is you need to get on the bohemian trend so you can complete your summer look!

 2. The Shopper Tote

This oversized bag can hold everything you need and then some. They are perfect for a weekend trip, a day trip to the beach and can be used as a carry-on for a plane ride. The tote bag comes in a variety of colors and prints.

 3. The Crossbody bag

This bag is queen because of its handsfree appeal. Throw it across your body and call it a day. Now you are able to carry whatever you want in your hands. These bags are for when you go shopping and you want to be able to touch/feel items. It’s also great for those of us who love live concerts, again you are handsfree. 

 4. Shoulder bag

The shoulder bag is easy to hold as it can go over the shoulder, in your hand or clutched for a night look. Mostly, it is intended to be looped over the shoulder so that the shoulder sustains the bag and makes it hands-free.

 5. The Micro Mini

You may ask, what can hold in this tiny, little bag. Well, it’s not what it can hold but what it will add to your look. They are designed to practically hold nothing but add so much sauce to an outfit. They can hold a lipstick, bank card/cash and ID. 

Now that you have an idea of the bags you need in your closet, you can get a few and add them to your summer rotation. As always, thank you for checking out this post.
