Filed under: Handbags

A light plaid just says summer, easy, classic and just a bit preppy. Call it the gin and tonic of fabrics. This clutch from Lauren Merkin is done in silk shantung in a peachy plaid shot through with cream and brown. It opens with a hexagonal frame and has a pink striped Lurex lining. Imagine this one tucked under your arm at a summer garden party, paired with a long white linen dress and arms full of gold or silver bangles. The bag sells for $165.

Monsac Nantucket Tote, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

Monsac's 'Nantucket' tote is a twist on the old-fashioned Nantucket lightship basket bags made of woven cane or wood with a hinged lid. This bag is made of rattan and has a hinged top with a magnetic snap tab closure. It has crinkled patent leather handles and a leather front pocket that makes it look a bit like it has had some sort of accident with a hobo bag. The bag has enough room for your water bottle, a book and wallet, sunglasses and cell phone. It comes in white, blue or black with rattan. It sells for $278. I can't decide if I would like it more without the leather pocket on the front or not.
