The Frienda straw bag has a straw exterior, which is a perfect fit for spring and summer when similar trendy styles like rattan and wicker purses reign supreme. The bag is fairly large for a clutch at 10.63 by 7.87 inches, and it features a knit lining to keep the items you tuck inside safe—it even has a pocket inside for your phone. Plus, you can decide how you would like to wear the bag: You can carry it as a clutch for weddings and dressier events, or attach the adjustable purse strap to turn it into a cross-body bag for everyday wear. To buy: $20; amazon.com. “This cute, lightweight clutch matches anything and is a great go-to for carrying the essentials to weddings,” wrote a five-star reviewer. Another shopper, who tucked their phone, keys, makeup, and more inside, shared that the bag “keeps its shape and looks great.” The bag comes in a variety of neutral colors, including light brown, black, creamy white, dark brown, and white (for a few dollars more). Not only can the bag match nearly any wedding outfit, but it’s also summer vacation ready, especially if you choose to add the strand of pom-poms that comes with it for extra flair. “The bag itself carries a good amount and became the only bag I used throughout my vacation,” wrote a different reviewer who wore the bag as a crossbody and added that they think it’s a “great value.” What’s better than an event-ready bag that can transition into one you reach for all summer long? The $20 Frienda straw bag checks every box, so buy one just in time for the start of wedding season.
