You guys probably know by now that I’m loving the round straw bag trend. I actually purchased my first round straw bag all the way back in January. I can tell you right now this trend is going to be huge in 2018. Not only are straw bags super cute, but I adore trends like this one that are affordable. And if you want compliments, buy yourself a round straw bag. I promise you – guaranteed compliments.

So here’s the thing about these fun straw bags. You can find them just about everywhere. Yes, lots of fancy designers make straw bags, but I guess I don’t really see the point in spending a ton of money on straw. I can all justify a price difference when it comes to nice leather grades or other expensive trademarked materials. But straw is straw. This is a trend to save on if you ask me.
This cute little round bag is my latest addition. I love the color of the straw and the adorable bow that secures the bag shut. It isn’t huge, but there is plenty of room inside for a few cards, my phone, makeup and keys. Since my diaper bag days are over, I still get oddly excited when I can leave the house with only a few items. I’m sure that excitement will go away at some point, but it is still a big deal for me.
I’ll include a few of my favorites in the round-up below, but I wanted to share a website where I’ve purchased a few of my straw bags (this one and this one). It is called Ali Express and it is almost like an overseas Amazon or Etsy where sellers can list items and ship them directly to you. I heard about this website originally from an overseas brand I used to partner with so I knew it was legit. Shipping times are usually a few weeks out because the items ship from overseas. There are also a few odd things like you have to confirm you received the item when it shows up, but that’s a good thing since the website guarantees your item will arrive. Totally worth the little oddities given the awesome prices. Both of my straw bags were under $30 including shipping!
Here are a few other favorites if you are looking to get in on this trend this spring and summer.

Thanks Jen! It really is and especially at that price! Xo
I have yet to purchase a straw bag, but the prices you’ve mentioned from this site definitely intrigue me! I’ll have to take a peek!!
I need to get one of those straw bags because they are so cute. They go great with stripes and florals (that’s just what I see them working really well with in my head, lol). Great prices too. Cute look babe.
