Confession: We're fully ob-sessed with straw and raffia bags. They have the magical ability to give any outfit a touch of casual cool, transcending its beachy origin to your IRL, landlocked location. Take Jane Birkin's vintage style as inspiration for living a 24/7 straw bag life. The actress styled her Portuguese fish basket with everything: denim, a little white frock, and even wore it with a cocktail dress at the Cannes Film Festival (with a silk scarf ingeniously wrapped around the handle). Indie brand Bonjour Coco recently brought the style back, partnering with local artisans in Portugal to hand-make each basket.
But if you're looking for a modernized straw bag, try Philippines-based label Aranaz. The mother-daughter design trio uses traditional weaving techniques, but applies them with a luxury aesthetic. They lavishly detail bucket bags with colorful flamingos, trim their handles in braided leather, and decorate totes with wood-carved flowers.
