What’s Your Bag?

Clockwise from top:

SR Squared by Sondra Roberts
For the quintessential warm-weather bag, look no further than this wicker style with cheery leather accents and a spacious canvas-lined interior.
 To buy: Unfortunately, this item is no longer available.
 
 Felix Rey for Target
Glossy faux patent leather and shiny gold-tone hardware lead you to believe this canvas carryall costs a fortune. (Psst―it doesn’t.) The slim silhouette means it will fit comfortably under your arm.
 To buy: $40, target.com.
 
 Target
This woven bargain is made of vinyl, not leather, so it easily wipes clean (a plus for anything white). And in summer a light neutral truly is as versatile as black.
 To buy: $20, target.com. 
 
 Mad Imports
A small clutch in fuchsia raffia will dress up lazy-day Capris and a white tank or add a perfect pop of color to a little black dress at night.
 To buy: $75, madimports.net.
