Summertime is so close I can almost taste it, and like I've said before, this is the season my laid-back style shifts into an even lower gear. My outfit choices get less and less fussy as the temperatures rise because really, who can stand to go all out in the heat? Instead, I let my accessories do the talking and experiment with fun pieces to spice up my look.
This summer, I plan to do so with my handbag choices specifically. I've noticed that the biggest summer handbag trends all have one thing in common: fun. From pastel hues to natural textures to mini bags too tiny to hold your phone, I'm already seeing the below five bag trends blowing up on Instagram, and it's not even June. Keep scrolling to see the aforementioned styles, plus shop my favorite picks from each one.
