The summer bags we love now? They include striped cotton-canvas totes from J Crew, basket bags from (new to us) label Paris64, plus lust-worthy woven styles from The Row …

Upgrade your usual beach or book bag to this J Crew striped cotton-canvas tote, which is a revival of a much-loved bag from the brand’s archive. Red and white 1989 striped bag, €112; www.jcrew.com.

We’ve noticed style influencers are carrying totes by Spanish label Paris64 which specialises in premium basket bags, replete with jaunty lining, that can be personalised. Natural Soho basket, €330; www.paris64.com.

The coolest way to accessorise right now is with an offbeat key chain (see the recent Dior show in Paris). Gourmands will love New York brand Vegetable Sweater which sells artichoke, onion and corn charms on charming raffia bucket bags. Natural raffia basket bag with charm, $249; www.agcontemporary.com.

If you find yourself in the midst of an obsession with headscarves (shop the styles we love here) then why not take it one step further and make this bandana-print bag yours. Army green printed cotton tote, Call It By Your Name, €150; www.net-a-porter.com.

Even The Row is lightening the mood for summer with its viral Emilie woven bag which – with its warming orange hue – is the zenith of luxury (and price point). Orange Emilie raffia tote, The Row, €1,010; www.luisaviaroma.com.
