My closet is not ready for warm weather. Last summer, I was unemployed. The summer before I was pregnant. So pieces that I can re-wear are sparse. To spruce up what I do have, I’m buying a woven straw bag. It’s an easy way to bring a bit of springtime flair to pieces that you rescued from the back of your closet.

This Sezane tote is a great option.  The shape, the leather handle, the simplicity — all give it a real cool-girl vibe.  The scarf is also just a really nice detail.

This pretty tote from Magid has a sweetness to it.  I imagine it with a white, cotton sundress being carried around a farmer’s market.  It’s also $80.

This Ann Taylor bucket bag is 60% off, because it was from last summer.  The marigold satin bag and chic details make this a great piece for adding a different vibe to a t-shirt and jeans.

If I was going to buy one bag from this collection, the & Other Stories tote would be the one.  It’s big, it’s functional, it’s versatile.  It’s a pool bag, a travel bag, a work tote, and cool option for hitting some errands on the way home from brunch.  Plus, it’s under-$100.

Demellier’s Santorini tote comes in multiple colors and sizes.  It’s a speedier option, but if you live in a warmer climate, a useful bag to have.

This Hat Attack tote is the perfect way to transport your beach hat this summer.  Keep your sun protection on lock and haul your essentials in a cool bag.
