I Track Trends For A Living – This Colourful Accessory Sells Out Every Summer
Damson Madder, DM Canvas Tote in Red Stripe COS, Mini Striped Tote Bag The Row, Barn Mini Striped Mesh Tote Bag Zara, Striped Fabric Tote Bag M&S, Canvas Striped Tote Bag Dragon Diffusion, Bali Basket Leather Tote Bag Nobody's Child, Red And White Striped Tote Bag Free People, Oksana Oversized Tote Missoni, Cyrus ZigZag Leather-Trimmed Tote Bag Dickies, Hickory Stripe Tote Bag Mansur Gavriel, Pascucci Bag To me, there's something incredibly nostalgic about a striped market tote. Maybe it's the playful ice lolly-hued stripes that evoke beachside trips, or the memory of my gran's weekly shop staple stuffed with boiled sweets. But this summer, the humble tote bag once reserved for groceries and weekend markets has quietly become the season's most unexpectedly chic accessory.

Back then, his supersized take on Thai grocery bags felt obviously ironic. Now, however, striped market tote bags have become a bona fide essential. In the last month alone, I've spotted versions of market totes slung over the shoulders of fashion editors, perched on picnic blankets on Primrose Hill, and brimming with organic fruits and baguettes on social media. Suddenly, these colourful bags are everywhere, and for good reason. They're oversized (read: practical and roomy), punchy, and most importantly, brilliantly fuss-free. All of which to say, in a sea of micro bags and logo-heavy totes, the return of a relaxed carryall is all but inevitable, and somehow, feels cooler than ever. Prada put the humble accessory on its spring/summer 2025 runways with a sturdy metal handle for carrying that deceptively heavy organic produce, while The Row's sherbet-coloured stripes have been a popular pick amongst stylish celebs including Kendall Jenner and Zoë Kravitz. ©Instagram/@annabelrosendahl There's also plenty of designs on the high street that promise a similarly vibrant look at much less. To wit, COS' striped market tote bag, with its roomy silhouette and classic summer stripes, has proven so popular this month that it's already mostly sold out. Happily, Damson Madder offers a preppy red and blue striped canvas tote that's just as chic and versatile. Damson Madder, DM Canvas Tote in Red Stripe While the red and blue striped iteration adds a summery nautical touch, Damson Madder's oversized canvas tote comes in an array of patterns, including a vibrant fruit label pattern as well as a flirty pink and white striped iteration (that's soon to be restocked). If it's a slouchier style you're after, look to Zara's fabric iteration or Free People's Okasana Oversized Tote. For alternate fabrications, Dragon Diffusion's woven designs are brilliantly fashion-forward while Arket offer jute classics. Whether you're toting your beach day essentials in a striped bag or switching out your stuffy leather bag for the office with a dopamine boosting alternative, striped market totes add a fun slant to any summer outfit. You could also add some bag charms or a fun scarf to the handle to really personalise your summer arm candy.

Horse racing tips: ‘A win would secure his place at Royal Ascot' – Templegate's 6-1 NAP for the Osbornes
TEMPLEGATE takes on Thursday's action looking for winners. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. HICKORY (4.25 Newbury, nap) Jamie Osborne's flyer was a game winner of Ascot's Victoria Cup before getting a bump at the start at Sandown last time. That meant he was way out the back before flying home to hit the frame. He could do with another win to secure his place in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot and has every chance. HARRYELLA (8.00 Chelmsford, nb) Was an impressive winner on his last visit to this Essex track and didn't get a clear run when second at Wolverhampton last time. He's got more to offer and this longer trip will suit in-form James Fanshawe's hopeful. Was a typical Sir Mark Prescott improver when winning on handicap debut when stepping up in trip. He has an extra quarter-mile in front of him today which should see him take another big leap forward.

Car slams into lemonade stand, critically injuring three girls, NC troopers say
Three girls were critically hurt when a Nissan ran off the road and slammed directly into their front yard lemonade stand, according to the North Carolina Highway Patrol. It happened around 1:20 p.m. Tuesday, June 10, near the intersection of Conley and Arthur Mull roads near Morganton, the Highway Patrol said in a June 11 news release. The girls are ages 7, 8 and 9, officials said. Their identities and specifics about their injuries have not been released. 'A 2007 Chevrolet HHR was attempting to turn left from a public driveway and pulled into the path of a 2017 Nissan Altima traveling north on Conley Road,' Master Trooper Christopher Casey reported in the release. 'This collision caused the Nissan to drive off the right side of the roadway and collide with three children. The three female children, who had set up a lemonade stand in the front yard ... were transported to area hospitals in critical condition.' The drivers were not injured, he said. Video recorded at the scene by WSOC shows the lemonade stand was flattened, and the vehicle came to rest in a front yard with damage to its front and back ends. The driver who collided with the lemonade stand has not been charged, officials said. The 24-year-old Hickory woman who was driving the Chevrolet HHR was cited for 'failure to yield right of way causing serious bodily injury,' officials said. The Nissan driver was identified as a 29-year-old woman from Forest City, officials said. 'The initial investigation does not indicate impairment or speed as contributing factors,' the Highway Patrol said. Jessica Tallent, who identified herself as the mother of one of the girls, said she initially thought her daughter was killed, WCNC reported. 'We thought all three of them were dead,' Tallent told the station. 'I was bawling my eyes out.' Her daughter's injuries were not as serious as the other girls, and the child is currently recovering at home, the station said. Morganton is about a 75-mile drive northwest from Charlotte.
