Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink the wild air.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
During hot weather, wearing anything lightweight is helpful. Lugging a heavy purse just doesn’t pair well with summer. It pulls on my neck and feels clunky against my airy summer wardrobe.
So, I set out to find a cute, lightweight, yet functional purse for some summer getaways like to the beach and pool in South Lake Tahoe and on a girls’ day out shopping in the hilly streets of San Francisco.
I scored a rattan purse that’s lightweight and large enough to hold my essentials (IphoneX, sunglasses, reading glasses, lip gloss, keys, wallet, and hand cream). To be fair, my wallet is compact (and still includes RFID security blocking to protect my credit card and driver’s license data) and my hand cream is in a container the size of a soda-pop lid. Everything fits perfectly and the point is, I’m not weighed down by the purse itself.
My neck is still rejoicing!
