This summer, fashion trends have largely focused on accessories – whether you've been seduced by seashell earrings or invested in a few bandanas. However, like every summer past, the one piece that's been topping our wishlist again is a straw basket bag. A staple in every warm-weather wardrobe, it’s the ultimate versatile carry-all. While the internet’s obsession with the Loewe Raffia Bag is hardly a secret, there’s one woven tote from Sézane that’s just as sought-after among fashion's best dressed: the Justine Bag.
Spotted slung around Sienna Miller's shoulder last summer, Sézane’s Justine bag has officially cemented its status as a summer icon. Available in a carousel of colours and designs (including a now out-of-stock embroidered daisy version), it’s the kind of basket bag that easily slots into your weekend getaway wardrobe, while still being excellent for quick errand runs in the city. Naturally, many iterations have already sold out (it's simply that good), but Miller’s exact pick, the Natural Raffia Tote, is still in stock.

Of course, Sienna Miller isn't the only it-girl who’s given this Sézane bag its moment in the spotlight. The fashion pack continues to style the Justine in every way possible, some choosing to pair the straw bag with airy linen favourites and carefree summer dresses alike. For accessories, chunky bangles and sleek oval sunnies are a match made in heaven. Alternatively, if you’re after something a bit more playful, try marine-inspired fish necklaces for a fun, kitschy twist.

Elsewhere, pairing the tote with floaty maxi and midi skirts has proven to be a popular choice – ideal for a coastal stroll along the French Riviera or for bringing a touch of Euro Summer glam to Holland Park. Pair the breezy skirts with bandeau-style tops in crisp white and natural colours or a sleek button-down and a trendy scarf tied as a belt for a timelessly elegant look.
