This season it’s what’s on the inside and outside that counts. With sunshine comes a roster of events and an ever declining will to carry excess weight. Whatever the occasion, choose from our essential summer bag edit, we’ve thrown in some tips on reducing the clutter, and because nobody needs extra baggage in their life.
We’re all about making a cameo at a local festival – one amazing day, zero packing (or washing) drama. Whether you’re a short stay sista (like us) or in it for the long-haul, glow hard or go home!
- 1. Be free
Shoulder and bumbags let you dance freely.
- 2. Think detail
Go boho with coins, crochet & tassels.
- 3. Extra sparkle
Take plenty of glitter for touch-ups.
- 4. Accessorise
You can’t be too extra at a festival. - 5. Don’t forget
Your ID or pass – serious vibe killer.
Culture vultures, shoppers and sightseers, if you’re off for a day in the city then your code is fuss-free and fabulous. The less you take, the more ‘souvenirs’ you can bring home.
- 1. Choose cross-body
This is your chic hands-free solution.
- 2. Think practical
Go for a style with extra compartments.
- 3. Try pop colour
To add interest to a casual look.
- 4. Choose your scent
A sensual fragrance takes you from day to night. - 5. Add mystery
Don’t forget sunglasses, we love a dark lens.
Those dressy summer soirees that could go all night need a bag (and contents) with staying power. Your code is maximum statement, minimum effort.
- 1. Be Bold
Block stripes are a must this season.
- 2. Stand-out
A bright bag is much harder to lose.
- 3. Have fun
Tassels are a playful addition.
- 4. Add glamour
With a statement glitter phone cover. - 5. Glow all night
Highlighter drops are your BFF.
Rising heat coupled with desk hopping from work to business meetings (and the bar after), can cause a meltdown. You need practicality, but not at the cost of your style.
1. Have options
Pick a roomy style with multiple straps.
- 2. Think investment
With real suede in a summer neutral shade.
- 3. On the go?
Get organised with removable zip purses.
- 4. Reinvent your look
With a versatile silky print scarf. - 5. Rediscover the watch
Arrive on time and in style.
