Bargain bucket
If you’re like me a need a way to ensure your stuff doesn’t fall out of your bag and you don’t want to splash the cash, try one of these two bags. Both under £50 and have ties or straps to ensure bag contents are secure. From Zara and Mango.


White lines
Embrace the stripes and feature bold linear designs on your tote bags. Check out the bungalow stripe from Staud and the large tote from Fendi featuring the Pequin stripe and the FF classic motif on the interior – this bag is reversible.


Relaxed vibes
When you want to keep your bag laidback in style but with a touch of luxury, choose the Leon bag from Jerome Dreyfuss or the Ivy bag from Miu Miu. These come with the designer price tags too.


Colour pop
From a little known sustainable handbag designer from Northern Ireland, called Taylor Yates, the Agnes bag has you covered if you need a large bag. And if you like a weave, head to Dragon Diffusion who love to weave leather, and the Egola bag is in forest green.


All shapes and sizes
If you prefer to keep it natural looking, here are four brands that give you straw and raffia bags in all shapes and sizes and they’re from all over the world. Starting in London, from Anya Hindmarch, with a handy pocket added to this rectangle tote bag. Then we head to Spain with the safe drawstring inner lining to the natural basket bag from Bimba y Lola. From New York in the US, MZ Wallace give us raffia tote bags with beautiful trim finishes. And last but by no means least, from Ludmila who is a crochet star and sells via the Lunar Cat store on Etsy, gives us the Taipei Jute bag, allowing you to keep your hands free.
