Straw & Rattan Tote Bags at Every Price Point

Do you have a favorite rattan bag you use each spring and summer?

Maybe it is an inexpensive French market basket or woven rattan bag from Loewe.

Now that the weather is warming up, I seem to be on the hunt for the perfect woven tote bag. I want to replace my classic canvas tote for a bag with a summer flair. But is it worth splurging on an expensive rattan bag? I can’t decide.  So I started to search high (Net-a-Porter and Saks) and Low (Zara and Mango) to see what options are out there.

I ordered this budget friendly option (so stay tuned for my thoughts on the quality once it arrives next week) and I have my eye on this under $200 rattan tote but it is currently out of stock…. If I had no care or budget in the world, I think this Khaite tote would be my pick, just because it seems the most sturdy and versatile.

Do you have a favorite? Let me know in the comments below.
