Summer straw tote bags are your best friends during summer season. You can wear the to the beach and pack all of your stuff, wear them in the city because why not right? Also, when you’re flying somewhere they are great to pass on as your one personal item and the best thing is… that you can put your purse, laptop, extra pair of heels that does not fit in your carry-on.. seriously they’re so useful! In today’s post, I’m sharing with you my favorite straw tote bags for everyone’s budget and tastes. Vibrant stripes, nautical flare and beach reach all ensemble in this beautiful Mar y Sol Havana straw tote bag $135 and this Mar y Sol Caracas double stripe sisal tote $125, who doesn’t like pom-poms right?

Leather & Stripes

Summer leather and stripes for summer, what do you think? I’ve had this stripe dress for years, I got it passed on from my mom. Luckily we share the same size, which makes going through her closet really fun. I wear it as a dress and top equally. Bebe striped dress worn as a top (similar and super crop top in stripe from Asos), Express leather skater skirt, J.Crew Factory emery flats, Coach watch, Stella & Dot cluster renegade bracelet, House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea sunglasses.

Sommerleder und Streifen für den Sommer, was denken Sie? Ich habe diese Streifenkleid für Jahre gehabt, ich habe es auf von meiner Mutter übergeben. Zum Glück haben wir die gleiche Größe, die durch ihren Schrank wirklich Spaß gehen macht. Ich trage es als Kleid und gleichmäßig. Bebe Kleid, Express Rock, J.Crew Factory emery Schuhe, Coach Uhr, Stella & Dot cluster renegade Armband, House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea Sonnenbrille.

Cuero de verano y rayas para el verano, que les parece? He tenido este vestido de rayas por años, lo heredé de mi mamá. Afortunadamente compartimos la misma talla de ropa lo que me hace muy feliz cuando reviso su closet. Uso este vestido como vestido y top regularmente. Vestido de rayas Bebe usado como un top, falda Express, flats J.Crew Factory emery, reloj Coach, pulseras Stella & Dot cluster renegade, gafas House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea.

They have been nominated for the eco award for the upcoming International Handbag Design Awards, if you want to learn more about the great work they’re doing, check out their site and read more about their inspiring story. The Rewilder block caution pouch is great to keep all your small beach essentials such as sunblock, chapstick… shall I go on? The Rewilder cozy caution bag is one of my favorites, it’s compact but roomy so you can pack your laptop to work or take a bottle of wine, a book and some small apps to the park for a summer picnic. Make sure to pack a nautical stripe pop of color outfit such as this super cute Topshop striped jacquard a-line dress that is all about giving you that structured figure you want. The waist fit will shape perfectly around your body and you’ll be beach ready. Add a statement feminine straw hat like this fabulous J.Crew wide brimmed hat that is so glamorous every IT girl is wearing it this season. To add a pop of color to your feet, try these striking cobalt Aquazzura Belgravia suede espadrille wedge sandals for a bohemian chic look.
