Beach Bags
Not just reserved for the beach, woven and straw bags add a light and airy finish to any summer ensemble. In fact, their lightweight construction, along with their roomy silhouette, is what makes them ideal for the beach, but they can also be used for picnics in the park or as a casual finish to your everyday outfits.
Our Summer Tote Bag is the perfect size for the beach and other swimming excursions.
Large enough to fit a towel, swimming cossie, sun cream and a good summer read, this straw tote has two shoulder straps for easy carry and a magnetic clasp closure to keep everything safely stowed away.
Offering an alternative, our Woven Tote Bag is made with a straw bag inspired woven outer, with plenty of space for your sunglasses, sun cream, and latest read.
There’s even a matching Floppy Straw Sun Hat to go with, for a coordinated touch!
Bags for Summer Adventures
Some sunny adventures are destined to take us further afield. For days that require a little more packing and organisation a backpack is just the ticket.
With handles that allow for hands-free wear, you can keep all your essentials close while focusing on the bright day ahead.
This multi-compartment women's backpack takes organisation seriously. Featuring a main compartment, plus external pockets, and a handy pouch, this backpack is made from lightweight materials and has two adjustable straps to help you find the most comfortable fit.
Perfect for day-long excursions and summer travels.

On the more subtle side of vibrant prints, this versatile Cross-Body Messenger Bag features an adjustable strap for a personalised fit, plus a whole host of pockets to help keep your daily essentials organised.
Coordinate the colours of this bag to your outfit by styling it with purples and reds. Contrast with whites, beige, and sunshine shades.
