This summer , straw and raffia bags are back (did they ever really leave?), and they’re hands down the easiest way to give your outfits that laid-back summer vibe.
Lightweight, chic and surprisingly versatile, these are the pieces you’ll be reaching for all season long.
Whether you’re heading on holiday, off to a picnic, or just running errands in the sun, a woven bag instantly pulls everything together.
Go for a classic tote for beach days like the ASOS My Accessories Small Straw Tote Bag With Contrast Satin Straps (£28), a crossbody for hands-free exploring, or something structured for a more polished evening look.

This year, we’re loving the details. Think leather trims, gold accents, and playful pops of colour. And the best bit? You’ll find great options all over the highstreet at a fraction of the cost of high-end alternatives.
So if you’re after the perfect warm-weather bag, we’ve rounded up the best straw and raffia styles to shop now. Trust us, you’ll want to carry these with everything.
