Must Have Accessory for your Summer Party Scene

You can amp up a super-simple cotton dress with a KEY accessory this spring/summer...the straw bag!

No, I don't mean frumpy beach ones


I'm talking fashion-conscious straw handbags, specifically the "clutch"!







The repeat of a popular 70s trend made itself known on the "Tokyo Girls" runways

As well as "Rosa Cha"

And others!


Some of my favorites for the season:
The Kate Spade "Lawn Party" Bag $195
lawn party bitsy
