Millie Mackintosh's £22 Next handbag is the only accessory you need this summer
If you're after the perfect summer accessory, Millie Mackintosh has given us some inspiration with her blue next beach bag, and it's so affordable at less than £25
With summer sneaking up on us, now is the perfect time to stock up on a few holiday essentials, especially with pay day around. And we've found the ultimate summer handbag that will be the only accessory you need this year, and it's all thanks to Millie Mackintosh.
Millie shared a tropical holiday post with her Instagram followers, and can be seen sporting the Blue Net handbag from Next along with a matching blue bikini and sarong. The Friends Like These Blue Mini Net Clutch Bag is priced at £22 and is available in a vibrant blue shade that is holiday-ready. Although the bag is fairly small, it will be so versatile in the warmer months. It's the perfect mix of playful and practical, and features a cool netted design with a handy drawstring closure to keep your essentials secure, plus a removable inner pouch for extra organisation.
Made from a soft blend of polyester, cotton, and viscose, it's lightweight, stylish, and just the right size for all your day-to-night plans.
Store your essentials and style the bag with more low-key daytime outfits, or use it equally as an evening out bag to add a fun pop of colour to your looks.
If the blue isn't your style, there are also cream and beige colourways to choose from. The bag hails from Millie's collaboration with Friends Like These on Next, and is the perfect summer accessory to add to your warm weather wardrobe.
If you're looking for a similar bag that's not quite so beachy, Dune's woven Primrose Clutch is the perfect dressier alternative. Made from a soft woven leather, this versatile bag comes with an adjustable leather handle or an interchangeable gold chain, depending on what best suits the vibe you're going for. And it's currently on sale at Debenhams for £55 down from £149.
