Whether your chosen warm-weather vibe is Mediterranean chic, boho beach babe, Hamptons riché, or mermaid-core all the way, let a shell bag be your statement accessory to tie it all together. They can be daytime or nighttime, sunrise or sunset, beach club, night club, poolside, lakeside, boatside, or even none of the above if you’re stuck in the city all season (but hey, manifesting escapes for all of us).
Consider me your guide for entering the summertime mood with the best shell bags you can buy. If you want a hardshell clutch, I’ve got you. Pearl handles? Covered. Oysters? Shucked and ready for you to throw in your lip gloss. The Birth of Venus has nothing on us, so grab your favorite swimsuits, throw on your coolest shades, slather on that SPF, and shop now!
