You’ve got the perfect summer dress, the prettiest on-trend trinkets, and found your ultimate sunscreen for the season. But what about your hold-all for balmy weekends under the sun? Hot summer days demand for easy yet eye-catching arm candy, and Vogue Arabia’s edit of must-have bags has something for just about everybody.
Gabrielle Escapade wicker and source calf bag, Moynat
Raffia always emerges as a hot weather hit, so why not invest in Marni’s ‘X No Vacancy’ tote, or dive into bold hues with Rabanne’s red bucket bag and Kate Spade’s statement-maker in blue and green? Moynat’s structured wicker number also makes a strong case for summery weaves, as does the sweet Rania basket bag over at Rouje.
Medium woody tote bag in linen canvas, Chloé. AED 6,400
No summer wardrobe is truly complete without a bag that can carry the world in it — cue Chloé’s linen canvas number, complete with color pop handles, and Soleil’s personalized tweed creations, which come in a myriad of hues. More of a neutrals kind of girl? You can’t miss out on Cult Gaia’s mustard-accent tote, and Dragon Diffusion’s creamy brown leather stunner.
Cote faux leather-trimmed beaded satin bucket bag, Staud. AED 1,387
A little drama goes a long way, and if you’re ready to make some noise this summer, keep your eyes open for Staud’s beautifully beaded swimming pool bag, or the Simon Miller x Mango bag in mango yellow. Maje’s tasseled crimson bag promises to make a bold statement, while Bottega Veneta’s lilac Sardine handbag will stand the test of time.
