Much like the decisions you make on vacation, summer fashion purchases typically happen on a whim. They are, for better or worse, playful, low-key, impractical, and most importantly, fun, colorful choices you may or may not regret, depending on your investment-level. For both situations, I suggest you go with a hot pick with low-commitment value.
Thankfully Zara, with their latest crop of handbags, is here to help you with that seasonal purchase. From mother of pearl acrylic box bags to rainbow clutches, brand if bringing you everything you want to carry with prices that don't pull at beaded purse strings. My favorites of the crazy cute bags on deck:
The bag you can pretend you found at a locals only flea market
A 'fun' carryall that fits an extra sundress for the morning after
The dinner-to-going-out bag you wouldn't mind losing at a club
A black beach bag for the person who knows Goth is life.
The clutch that makes you feel and act like Rihanna in 'Work'
See? Every scenario is covered. Shop more options over on zara.com.
