Nothing says summer like a natural toned woven handbag. While a cute straw purse is an obvious and affordable choice, this material’s brittle nature means it might not last more than a season or two. If you’re looking for a more durable summer bag, consider a pale leather alternative like the Anise from Elliott Lucca.
While dark woven leather bags give off a wintery vibe, the Anise in a gentle shade like Honeydew screams picnic lunches and evening barbecues on the beach. The drawstring closure only adds to the relaxed feel, cinching the Anise in and encouraging the leather to fall in a casual slouch.
Drawstrings are never the most secure closures, so Elliott Lucca adds a magnetic snap underneath. Pop it open to reveal a sizable cotton-lined interior. There’s a zippered pocket in one wall for your valuables, and two open slips in the other for your cell phone and iPod.
A woven leather tote like this Elliott Lucca bag requires a more significant outlay than most similar straw alternatives, but consider the cost an investment in your summer wardrobe for years to come. Its timeless style makes sure you can carry it for as long as the leather holds up.
