25 editor-approved summer bags with a city-to-beach appeal
Time to swap your leather totes for chic city-to-beach summer bags that are equal parts vacation-ready and everyday-appropriate.
It's a versatile hero piece that deserves a permanent place in your rotation this season. Make the most of your investment purchase this summer with a sculptural bag that effortlessly blends a beachy, artisanal mood with a polished, city-chic sensibility. Think hand-woven details, earthy materials, artisanal craftsmanship, sculptural hardware, elevated finishes, and refined shapes that transition seamlessly from poolside lounging to city strolling. Don't shy away from unique silhouettes and unexpected materials. Think canvas and mesh trimmed with leather, bold shapes softened by natural weaves, and bags that offer both aesthetic appeal and practical prowess. Case in point: Savette's mesh reinterpretation of the 'Symmetry Pochette,' a minimal yet modern nod to summer texture, and Jacquemus' 'Rond Carré' bag, a playful but polished piece featuring wooden accents and sculptural curves.
Opt for fabrics that feel synonymous with summer—raffia, crochet, mesh, or canvas—and style them with everything from breezy co-ords, lightweight tailoring, statement summer dresses, or even the classic jeans-and-white-tee ensemble.
Look for designs that strike the perfect balance between form and function: roomy enough with hidden compartments and wide interiors to stow your daily and getaway essentials, yet elegant enough to complement your day-to-day wardrobe, making these the perfect companions for your airport sprints, office days, and leisurely afternoons by the sea.
