Summer Holiday Handbags to Suit Your Holiday Outfits
Whether you're hitting the beach at an exotic location this summer or taking in the sights and culture of a city break, you'll no doubt be updating your wardrobe before you pack for your trip.
To make sure you look stunning with every outfit choice we've put together suggestions for the best handbags to complement this year's top summer fashions.
The Patterned Maxi Dress and Tote Bag
Teaming up a funky maxi dress with a chunky tote bag is a winning combination for summer fashion. Maxi dresses in wild patterns have been around since the 1970s and it seems that they make a comeback in the wardrobes of fashionistas everywhere each summer.
Practical tote bags are ideal for holidays as you can stash everything in them from your sun cream and water to your guidebook and summer read. As tote bags are so large they balance the volume of the maxi dress perfectly but just make sure you choose a plain colour so it doesn’t clash with the busy pattern of your dress.
The stylish monochrome look of the Anouk Ivory and Black Leather Dame Shopper (£290) will work a treat with the maxi dress of your choice.
The Beach Babe Bikini and Shopper Bag
The best beach bag is most certainly a spacious shopper bag which will take you from a day’s sunbathing to evening drinks at a beach side bar.
The ideal bag should have enough room for your beach essentials such as water, sun cream, magazines and a sarong but also be secure enough to avoid attracting the attention of any pick pockets. Finally, the shopper bag should also be stylish and complement your beachwear which is why a black bag is an ideal option as you can wear a bright bikini and sarong without worrying about how well your bag will go with them.
This may seem like a lot to ask but thanks to the Marion Ayonote Limited Edition Swarovski Crystal Shopper Bag (£30) you can look sensational and have all the practicality you could ask for from a beach bag.
The Shorts and Vest and Grab Bag
Denim shorts and a cute vest is the classic choice for holiday daytime wear whether you’re sightseeing, shopping or enjoying lunch on a sunny restaurant terrace. The shorts and vest combination tends to be subtle in colour so this means you can go all out on a bright and daring grab bag.
The Billy Bag Molly Grab Bag in Honeycombe Red (£32.50) will add an injection of colour to any outfit and its practical size means that it’s small enough to carry for a whole day yet big enough for all your day time necessities. The best thing about this cool grab bag from Billy Bag is that it’s smart and compact enough to be used in the evening as well so it will take you seamlessly from day into night.
Summer’s finally here so whether you’re heading abroad or staying in the UK, make sure you invest in some stylish holiday handbags to complement your summer fashion.
