Summer is in full bloom, which means our clothes are becoming lighter – and so are our bags. And we definitely cannot talk about summer without beach trips. Inspired in part by the way Taeyeon from SNSD matched her summer look with Fendi’s basket bag, here we’ve scoped out five different basket bags to complete your summer look – from Alaïa and Loewe to Giorgio Armani and Prada.
