The body is worked in an open crochet mesh of natural straw, light and breathable with a texture you can feel under your fingers. Inside there is a soft fabric lining, so the bag is not see through in use and your essentials stay held rather than slipping through the weave. The curved handle is strung with rounded dark wood beads and a wood ring on each side.

No. While the straw is worked in an open crochet pattern, there is a soft fabric lining inside the body that closes off the gaps. Your phone, wallet and keys sit against the lining and stay out of sight, so the airy weave gives you the summer look without leaving your things on show through the holes.

There are five natural tones. Off White is a soft cream, Khaki Beige a warm sandy straw, Brown a deep cocoa, Blue a cream weave threaded with soft sky blue, and Black a graphic cream and black granny pattern. Each keeps the same crochet weave and dark wood bead handle, so you can choose on colour alone to match your warm-weather outfits.

The beaded wood handle is firm and curved, so it holds its shape and slides easily onto the shoulder. The body has a slouchy hobo shape that settles softly against your side as you walk. It is made to be carried on the shoulder rather than across the body, which suits its relaxed summer look.

It comfortably takes the everyday essentials, a phone, a wallet, sunglasses, keys and a few small extras, held inside the lined body. The slouchy shape gives a little room to spare without bulging. It is sized as an easy shoulder bag for days out rather than a large beach tote, so it carries what you need without weighing you down.

Both. The natural straw texture keeps it relaxed enough for the market, the park or the boardwalk, while the wood bead handle gives it a finished look that carries into dinner. It pairs with sundresses, jeans, linen and sandals, so one bag moves from a casual daytime errand to a put together evening out.

Treat it as you would any natural straw piece. Wipe the surface gently with a soft dry or barely damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat. Store it loosely stuffed so the slouchy body keeps its shape between wears. Avoid soaking it, since the natural straw and wood beads are happiest kept dry.

You can send it back within 30 days for a full refund, no fuss. We would rather you see the weave and the wood bead handle in person and decide for yourself, so if the tone or the size is not what you pictured, returning it is simple and you have nothing to lose by trying it on your own outfits first.
