TOP 5 BAGS FOR SUMMER

By Grace Cook, 21 July 2018

There ain’t no better time for a bag switch-up than summer. After all, it’s when our style is at its most experimental and our look is changeable depending on both our mood and the weather: we might be channelling some serious 90s vibes one day, and ladylike glam the next. So natch, we need a plethora of accessories to choose from. Enter the latest just-dropped styles on ASOS.

A wooden bag is the ultimate summer purchase. Perfect for wearing with all manner of flouncy cotton dresses, this bag gives us some serious Italian vacay

vibes – picture this cherry red version in Positano with a pizza and an Aperol.

ASOS DESIGN bamboo clutch bag, £35

Big tote bags have been having a moment on the runways of late, seen most prominently at Balenciaga. This practical shopper — printed with an illustration of the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (who by the way

has been giving us some serious style inspo of her own lately) is all you need to add a bit of flair to everyday outfits.

Are we ever not repping the 90s? The classic 90s bum bag is made even cooler with this oversized, colour-block design that seriously channels a The Fresh Prince of Bel Air mood. Whether in the city or at a festival, it’s perfect worn

with denim cut-offs and a crop top – don’t forget the chunky dad sneakers and ankle socks, either, to really get jiggy with it.

ASOS DESIGN Oversized scuba bum bag, £18

Remember the time before Fjallraven backpacks weren’t a thing? Us neither. The ultimate backpack in a summery colour clash is all you need to lift your everyday accessories game. We love the mix

of the jade green with a pop of coral. Throw in all of your essentials and team with jeans and a white tee.

Fabric bags are making a comeback. If you need proof, all you need to do is scroll your Instagram feed to see all manner of fresh street stylers using the Dior Saddlebag – or Kylie Jenner, covered head-to-baby-pram-toe in Fendi
