A summer bag is a faithful assistant for any woman. You cannot do without it at a business meeting, on a walk around the city, when going to a store or at a gala event. Therefore, in the wardrobe of any lady there are probably several models of different colors, textures and designs for a suitable occasion. But, as you know, there are never too many bags, and summer is a great reason to buy another one!

Types and models

The modern abundance of bags, of course, is difficult to list, so rich and vast assortment is offered today by fashion designers. However, there are several main types and models.

Beach

A great option for a hot summer. A spacious, bright summer bag is indispensable not only on the beach, but also in the city. It fits everything you need to keep close at hand, and the bright and stylish design perfectly complements any look. Such models are usually sewn from textiles, jeans, woven from straw. For the convenience of storing the phone and other useful little things, an internal zippered pocket is provided.

Beach bags are made in bright, catchy colors and are decorated with colorful prints and designs. Among the most popular ornaments are the marine theme and everything related to it. The squeak of the season is a bag that matches a bathing suit in design and color.

Wicker

These models are versatile. This neat wicker bag can be taken to work, to a party, or to the beach. Today, designers offer models made in different styles, so choosing the best option for a business or evening bow will not be the slightest difficulty.

Hobo

Today these comfortable, practical and very beautiful shoulder bags are in great demand. Most often they are sewn soft, frameless, equipped with one, two handles or just a shoulder strap. In shape, they can be trapezoidal, polygonal or resemble a crescent. For their manufacture, natural or artificial leather, suede, denim are used.

Shopping bag

The name of this model in itself means that it was created for shopping. The sturdy, voluminous shopper goes well with both casual and formal styles. In summer, this model may well be replaced by a beach bag. Lightweight, durable materials are used to make these accessories. Summer options are decorated with bright appliques, rhinestones, embroidery, fringe.

For toiletries

NSThis accessory is a must for a trip or business trip. It easily replaces uncomfortable plastic bags, which usually contain soap, toothbrush, shampoo and other products. The accessory is very compact, lightweight and equipped with special pockets and a hanger for ease of use.

Clutches

Summer heat is not a reason to deny yourself a solemn appearance. On the contrary, this is the perfect time for open, beautiful evening gowns and elegant suits. A theater, a restaurant, a party with friends, a working corporate party - there are many reasons to dress smartly and beautifully in the summer. And a neat, elegant clutch bag can perfectly complement any evening bow.

It differs from other beautiful evening models, first of all, by its compact size. You can only put your mobile phone, keys, powder box or mirror in it. Clutches are made in different geometric shapes: it can be a square, rectangular, oval handbag. The most beautiful materials are used for its manufacture: patent or matte leather, suede, velvet, satin, lace.

Backpack

An irreplaceable wardrobe item for active and motivated people. This practical, comfortable, roomy thing goes well with jeans, shorts, dresses, sundresses. The color scheme and decor of backpacks can be very different - for every taste and for every style.

Small suitcase

A model that is becoming more and more popular along with summer backpacks. A compact, elegant suitcase looks great with a business or casual outfit.

Retro

Everyone knows that the new is the well-forgotten old. Therefore, handbags a la 60-70s are again at the peak of popularity. Grandma's reticule, knitted square handbags embroidered with beads, velvet models-purses or a bag-bag on a chain are the undoubted hits of the summer season. In order for the bag to look as impressive as possible, and the image should be as thoughtful and stylized as possible for the outfits of that time: a fluffy dress, sandals with high, wide heels, a ribbon in the hair.

Other models

Other topical handbags include accessories made in ethnic or folk style and decorated with fringe or characteristic embroidery. Bags embroidered with bugles, beads, multi-colored stones and transparent rhinestones are still fashionable. This does not have to be an evening version, the combination of denim or suede and transparent stones looks interesting.

Styles

Business, casual, sports, romantic, evening, ethnic, oriental style - for each such outfit, designers offer a variety of models of bags.

For example, practicality and convenience are relevant for everyday style. Therefore, bags made in casual style are quite voluminous, equipped with many pockets and compartments. Practical and durable leather, denim, textile fabric are used for their manufacture. The design doesn't have to be overly complex. The usual rectangular or trapezoidal bags with a belt or with handles look best.

Bags in vintage or retro style, on the contrary, have an original, interesting design. Usually they are richly decorated: they are embroidered with bugles, beads, multi-colored threads, ribbons, and decorated with lace inserts.

Bags made in the “patchwork” technology (patchwork quilt) can also be attributed to the same category. Such an original handbag can be sewn with your own hands or purchased ready-made. Its distinctive feature is a bright, catchy, unusual decor in the form of multi-colored patches decorated with different prints.

Business-style handbags are made in clear geometric shapes and restrained colors: black, white, beige, gray, dark blue. Usually they are quite functional and decorated to a minimum. Business handbags are universally combined with a sheath dress, trouser suit, blouse and skirt.

Sports-style bags should be as comfortable, lightweight and practical as possible. They are usually complemented by a shoulder strap and padded, wide handles. Decorated with logos of sports brands, lettering, contrasting color trim.

Dimensions (edit)

Bags can be made in a wide variety of sizes, depending on the function or style.

Small handbags are not particularly practical or functional. Such a model will fit, perhaps, a minimum of cosmetics, a wallet and a mirror. Miniature accessories are most often used as evening accessories.

Large bags, backpacks, suitcases, shoppers can be used every day, as sports equipment, and on trips. They are quite voluminous, they have many compartments and pockets, practical, non-marking, wear-resistant materials are used for their manufacture.

Small handbags are the most common option. With such an accessory, you can go to work, to the store, or on other matters. They fit the necessary things, while they do not look too bulky and heavy.

Fashion trends

Among the most fashionable trends of this season are the following:

  1. Miniature handbags are in trend. We are not talking about clutches, they are almost an integral part of any evening look. It is micro-bags that are popular, tiny accessories a little larger than a women's wallet. They are completely impractical (lipstick and credit card fits in there), but very original. Especially if they are made in the form of a cartoon character, fruit, berry, animal face.
  2. Bags-bags. An average option between sports and casual models. Especially popular are bags made from pieces of leather and decorated with colored prints. A truly fashionable bag should be a little overloaded with decor.
  3. Metallic shades are popular not only in clothing and shoes, but also in accessories. Silver handbag bag will be a great alternative to the traditional black clutch in an evening look. The silver bag will perfectly complement a sporty or casual bow, make it brighter and more memorable.
  4. Bag with pendants. Metal decorative elements, original-shaped key chains, toy hares or other animals, wicker, knitted, leather pendants can be used as decorations.
  5. Drawstring handbag. A very convenient option for a sports or casual bag, which is closed with lacing.
  6. Original bags stand out against the general background by their unusual shapes, size, color, print, decor. It could be a handbag as fruit wedge, with a wide hoop instead of a handle, a model decorated with newspaper print or multi-colored feathers.

Materials (edit)

Leather bags are relevant at any time. They look appropriate in different situations and go well with any outfit. Leather is a flexible material, it is great for creating models of classic and original shapes. A more democratic option - leatherette externally and in many characteristics is practically not inferior to natural material. Matte bags are most often used with everyday clothes, lacquered bags are great for an evening out.

Knitted handbags are a great opportunity to make your fantasies come true. You can create a completely unique thing with your own hands. A special chic is a knitted bag combined with a knitted dress or blouse.

Textile bags are especially popular among young people. Light, bright, beautiful textile models create a wonderful summer mood and give only positive emotions.

Linen bag is very light, stylish and practical. Natural linen is beautiful and textured in itself, so these bags do not need decoration, although they go well with various decorative details.

Today, straw products can be found not only on the beach, but also on city streets. Most often they have a short handle and are worn with a woven straw hat.

Color and print

Summer bags can be made in the classic line of colors. A snow-white bag visually "lightens" any image, makes it more elegant and expressive.

Black is versatile. It looks great in any model: business, evening or sportswear.

Light colors make the accessory more delicate and airy, bright colors attract attention. Pastel colors look great not only in a casual look, but also with a business suit and an evening dress.

Floral print is one of the trends this season. Very large buds, small bouquets, bright or delicate floral ornaments can be used as decoration. Handbags with raised floral appliqués look very interesting.

Not inferior to the palm tree of floral prints images of animals. This is especially true for the cat family: leopard and tiger prints make any accessory very noticeable and catchy. Therefore, the outfit for such a bag should be selected sufficiently restrained so that the finished image does not look vulgar.

Fringe. A fashionable decorative element that is used to decorate a bag along its entire length or its individual parts. The shiny fringe looks very interesting and unusual, contrasting with the main background.

Chain. The handle in the form of a chain makes even a medium-sized bag very graceful and feminine. Ideal for using a chain - a micro bag

Brands

A summer bag is an integral part of any look, so many fashion designers attach great importance to this particular accessory.

The Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini company offered handbags made of wicker to the customers' judgment. Such a thing will be an excellent addition to an outfit designed in ethnic, folklore or rustic style. The Dolce & Gabbana brand maintains the same style. Its models resemble wicker baskets in shape.

The collections of the Holly Fulton and Olympia Le-Tan brands contain original models decorated with cartoon characters.

Bulky tote bags, which will come in handy both on the beach and in the store, have also been noticed by eminent designers who believe that even shopping bags can be elegant. For example, Sonia Ryciel offers packages made in a strict, classic combination of black and white.

The new Prada collection presents stylish miniature wallet accessories in a laconic, elegant design and rich colors. A blue, bright red, lilac, green, dark blue wallet will become a real highlight of a business or evening look.

How to choose?

  1. Quality is the first indicator to look at. The bag must be strong and sturdy enough. The lines should be straight, no threads sticking out in different directions.
  2. The size and shape depend on the style, functional purpose, as well as the body type, height and weight of the hostess herself. A fragile, graceful girl is unlikely to fit a bulky, bulky bag.
  3. Colour. A versatile line of colors to suit a wide variety of outfits. Usually a black or white handbag is selected for everyday wear. Bright, catchy, multi-colored handbags are selected for a specific outfit.
  4. Material.In a hot, sunny summer, handbags made of natural, light materials, for example, straw, cotton, textiles, knitted jersey, look most harmonious.
  5. Purpose. If an accessory is chosen for everyday wear, then it must have a rather rigid shape, be roomy, and non-marking. A handbag for a business meeting is made in the correct geometric shape (rectangle, trapezoid) from natural materials (leather, suede) and in classic colors. The evening version should be as graceful and elegant as possible, made of expensive, beautiful materials (brocade, satin, lace, patent leather).

What to wear with?

The color matching of bags and shoes is still relevant. Not necessarily tone on tone, but close enough. Or the handbag is matched to the color of the main outfit.

A bright handbag is in perfect harmony with a blouse or dress in pastel colors. The more creative the cut and the more poisonous the colors, the more restrained and neutral the clothes should be.

Large, roomy bags look best with sportswear, jeans, T-shirts and other casual clothing.

A small, laconic handbag is best suited to a light, airy dress in a romantic style.

A business suit involves strict accessories, for example, a rectangular leather handbag.

Colorful, colorful bags look best against a background of plain clothes. It is desirable that one of the shades of the bag echoes the main color of the outfit.

The wicker bag is not only appropriate for the beach. In combination with a lemon-colored dress and golden sandals, a neat handbag makes up a completely modern and stylish ensemble.

Summer should be bright. A bright yellow handbag with a long strap effectively complements and sets off a set of clothes, made in different shades of blue and light blue.
