I care about ALL my clothes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621358 Wed, 16 May 2012 18:05:00 +0000 modgrl 621358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't wear it with any clothes that you care about - they will take a beating. I think I may have ruined a Halogen seamed skirt by wearing it with a straw bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621350 Wed, 16 May 2012 17:53:32 +0000 christieanne 621350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks like a fairly light weave in straw. One thing you could do to get an extra year of wear is have it sprayed with weatherguard. I don't think the straw will be rough enough to hurt your fabrics - just run your hand over to make sure there aren't loose snaggy edges. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621293 Wed, 16 May 2012 17:17:26 +0000 Kirti 621293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good point Makrame and Ruth. I am hoping that some members who own straw bags will chime in. I know Natalie has one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621290 Wed, 16 May 2012 17:13:13 +0000 Anonymous 621290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all three of them, too! I didn't think about the straw material potentially rubbing against your clothes, though. Hmmmmmmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621279 Wed, 16 May 2012 17:07:05 +0000 Makrame 621279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them but I would be careful about whether they might damage your clothes. Not sure if the straw material would rub against the fabric. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621238 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:28:51 +0000 Kirti 621238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so glad you guys like them! All three of my bags are brown, so it will be nice to have a summery bag. I am still mulling over the colour...hmmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621231 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:23:16 +0000 Janet 621231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these look like a fun, light summer alternative to the bags you have -- and affordable! Color totally depends on what would complement your wardrobe best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621227 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:21:20 +0000 Kristin L 621227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They would be very cute for summer. I like the pink one the best, but which color would you carry more often? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621224 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:19:37 +0000 christieanne 621224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like one of those for summer. Hard to choose a color though - I think the yellow is a bit more sophisticated but the pink is so fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621222 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:17:41 +0000 rae 621222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I say yay! These are nothing like your other bags, I think, and look so fun for summer. I have a slight preference for the yellow, but I vote for whichever one will slip into your wardrobe more easily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-handbag---yay-or-nay#post-621215 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:13:46 +0000 Kirti 621215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't really need a handbag. I already have a reddish brown crossbody handbag that I bought second hand a few months ago, plus two larger bags - a longchamp and my satchel.</p> <p>But I saw these straw handbags in Monoprix today and I really want one of them, especially since they are crossbody. They aren't very expensive either at 30 euros each.</p> <p>What do you think? Should I get one? And which colour? The neon is pretty cool, but I like pink too! </p>
