May is upon us, which means seasonal drops from our favorite designers are pouring in. If you’re lucky enough to be in the market for a new summer carry, this is a great year to invest.

From Matthieu Blazy’s first Coco Beach Collection (more on that later!) to fresh summer bags from Dior, Loewe, Miu Miu, and more, this year’s novelty bags are better than ever.

While we’ve already uncovered six seriously sick summer carryalls that won’t break the bank, sometimes we like to dissociate and pretend that we’ll be summering in Capri or Saint Barths, where only the best luxury summer tote will do.

So if you are lucky enough to be yacht-hopping this summer—or at the very least, if you want to bring luxe vacation vibes with you wherever you are—we’ve got you covered with 15 fresh summer bags that will steal the scene this season.

I just can’t spend more than $100 on a raffia bag… I’m too old for these prices to make sense to me. Some of them are what I paid for my first Kelly!

Slim

totally agree!

Some of the bags are nice. I have never thought investing in a summer bag necessary, I just take my Neverfull to the beach.

I’ve seen quite a few people doing that but I would hate to get sand all over a nice bag. Maybe poolside. But then again the Goyard St. Louis was designed to be a beach tote.

For so many years I’ve used my different Goyard totes for a one and done-especially when traveling – travel bag; beach tote; day to day bag; a St. Louis pm can even go to casual dinners. And best of all they can be cleaned with disinfecting wipes! So hard to pack a raffia tote without damaging it.

St Louis is the best beach/ travel bag. I stopped using my raffia bags completely after I got the st Louis maybe years ago. It’s so uncomfortable to pack raffia and then sand… such a pain to clean

Georgina

I want to eat the Bottega hop 🥐 😂

Christy Jacobs

The Chanel and the Balenciaga bags look like the designer took their flagship bag and forced the raffia material into it just so they could have a style for summer. It doesn’t look right.
