Don’t Wait Until Summer to Carry Your Favorite Basket Bag

Few can make socks with sandals, crop tops over button ups, or floral frocks with turtlenecks work as well as the street style set. (There is a reason they are being photographed, after all.) The latest out-of-season item these fashionable women have honed in on is the trans-seasonal basket bag. Woven totes have rarely been used outside the summer months or on Instagram-worthy vacations, but in 2019, street style stars dusted off their best basket bags for a refreshing take on wintertime dressing.

Try juxtaposing the summery staple with layered knits and chunky sweaters for a surprisingly cool effect, or, as Tamu McPherson did, style a top handle basket with a pale pink leather coat and a pair of knee highs. When worn unexpectedly, the basket bag becomes a surprisingly chic way to bring a little bit of sunshine to your look, no matter the time of year. So why wait for summer?
