The perfect holiday bag!
mis à jour le 4 May 2019 à 13:14Question from Alexandra, 36, Chatillon, France: "What bag do you recommend to take on holidays?"
This is a good question, because it is often difficult to get in the holiday mood before you start packing your suitcase. And you don't want to forget the summer bag! We are not talking about the beach tote, but the bag which we can bring to the market, for a drink with friends, or to dinner in the town square.
First of all, forget about leather city bags! As much as we love to carry them to work, they are not suitable for holidays.
Instead, choose fabric, straw lined, raffia, crochet and even colored plastic or printed canvas shoppers for a fun carefree look.
The canvas bag is a safe choice, and it has the advantage of leaving the hands free, but choose a small and delicate model to avoid the 'adventurer' look.
As for colors, everything is permitted on holiday but beige and off-white go with everything, just like gold or silver too.
And apart from the roomy tote, choose a nice pouch in which you can store your papers and mobile and slide inside the bag. It also doubles as a clutch for the evenings.
