Wicker isn’t just for furniture anymore. This Kate Spade Tisbury Avita pairs simple toast-colored wicker with black or gold patent calfskin leather straps and a stylish strip running down the bag, adorned with gold hardware. Inspired by Martha’s Vineyard, this is the ultimate beach-chic carryall, whether’s it off to the polo matches or to an early evening cocktail party. The satchel also has a tab and turnlock closure and rose cotton twill lining, plus just enough room to hold your pocketbook, designer sunglasses, and that skimpy bikini you pack for “emergencies only.”
