The 24 Best Straw Bags for All Your Warm Weather Adventures
Straw bags have been a quintessential part of warm-weather wardrobes for years, and for good reason. Famously loved by Jane Birkin, the purses are typically all-natural, handwoven by artisans, and built to last—in other words, a most sustainable choice. Not to mention, the raffia accessories are versatile, practical for holding your essential knickknacks, and chic to carry around no matter where you're headed.
These days, there are tons of iterations of the woven style, with luxury designers putting their high fashion spin (and price tag) on the humble carryalls. Many still hold that same je ne sais quoi charm of Birkin's beloved wicker basket, but there's also the option of choosing one with playful pops of color and texture galore.
Below, an assortment of the best straw bags for all your spring and summer adventures, from a market tote for the beach to an elegant top-handle for lunch dates to a rattan evening bag for nighttime shindigs. After all, isn't it about time we all retired the canvas totes?
