One of my favorite New Yorker cartoons features a caption that reads, “I dress for the weather I want, not the weather I have.” And that’s the attitude I’ve taken as we deal with plenty of April showers here in Seattle. The weather may not yet be warm, but I’m choosing to channel those balmy temperatures by adding to my wardrobe dashes of the summeriest pieces I know: straw accessories. Today I’ve rounded up my favorite picks for this textural summer-friendly trend — and they all ring in under $100!
Thankfully, straw is having a big moment, so there were plenty of pretty things to pick from. These chic and simple pointy-toe mules are already in my basket (pretty sure I’ll be wearing them with all my favorite sundresses this summer), but I’m having the darndest time choosing between all the great bag options. I think a crossbody and a tote are both musts — but I can’t forget about this super cute basket bag, which Joanna and I treated a little DIY love last month.
No matter which of these budget-friendly straw pieces you choose to pick up, rest assured that they’ll add an instant dose of sunshine into your wardrobe — and that’s priceless.
