I don’t know about you, but I’m about ready to shake off winter snow and get set for summer. A cute nautical bag like the Gayle from Straw Studios could be just the accessory you need to get you there.
What the Gayle lacks in luxury it makes up for in personality and street smarts. The canvas body is playfully patterned with navy anchors. This blue hue is picked up again in the trim around the pockets and bag’s top. This color always makes me think of setting sail, but there are also red versions with anchor and crab prints if you prefer.
While canvas doesn’t feel very luxe, you’ll be happy for it if you’re spending your summer at the beach. This material is virtually indestructible, so you needn’t worry about the salty sea air or unexpected summer showers. The thick rope handles are just as tough, while also adding to the Gayle’s nautical vibe.
It looks like a simple bag on the outside, so I was impressed to see how well appointed it is. The interior is lined with cotton, and kitted out with three pockets. That lining is pale so it’s bound to show stains quickly, but who really cares in a casual bag like this?
Straw Studios is known for its affordable prices, and it doesn’t let us down here. For $54, this shoulder bag is a cheap and cheerful way to usher in the new season.
