12 Wicker Bags To Carry You Straight Through Summer

"A picnic basket, but make it fashion." I imagine that’s the directive every fashion brand gave their designers this season because, wow, have there ever been a bunch of straw baskets on the market lately.

Not that we’re complaining! Straw/wicker/raffia/woven baskets of any kind are some of the most versatile bags out there. A tote version is great for the beach, a more structured version can work for a romp in the park, while a backpack, cross-body, or clutch is great for the everyday. Just ask Jane Birkin, who carried around her petite wicker basket in the '70s wherever she went. Of course, she did a lot of things, style-wise, before anyone else, but that just proves this is a trend worth noting. 

If you're in the market for one of your own, but don't know where to start, we gathered some of our favorites ahead.
