Upgrade Your Summer Style With These Chic Raffia Bags
It’s the versatile accessory your summer wardrobe needs.
What’s the charming summer trend we can’t get enough of? Raffia bucket bags. There’s something wonderfully nostalgic about this specific silhouette—especially those made from raffia and other natural materials. They remind me of baskets brimming with fresh-picked tulips or homegrown vegetables, instantly transporting me to a slow-paced morning at the farmer’s market. Plus, the timeless style pairs beautifully with flouncy spring dresses, making them the chicest accessory for everything from countryside walks to summer brunches—or even a laid-back outdoor wedding.
The open-top shape, often lined with a handy drawstring pouch, makes grabbing your essentials on-the-go effortless. Deceptively spacious, these bags hold more than you think. Their structured, cylindrical shape comes in various sizes that will easily fit your phone, wallet, keys, and even extras like sunscreen or an intriguing book, all without looking overstuffed.
Whether you’re after a timeless designer bag to treasure for years, a crystal-embellished style for some wedding season sparkle, or a compact, polished option for effortlessly chic weekend looks, our top picks have something for every occasion. If you’re looking to add a romantic touch to your warm-weather wardrobe, scroll on for a curated edit of must-have raffia bucket bags that combine style and function (and are picnic-in-the-park approved).
