Ocean blue

Top tip

The solid base and double lining give the bag strength, so pack what you like!

Summer’s finally here, and we’re looking forward to hitting the beach in style with Jenny May’s lovely lined tote bag. When we asked Jenny to design a bright carry-all, perfect for the beach, she chose to seek inspiration in the setting. “I couldn’t resist adding some sea-inspired embellishments in the form of an anemone hung with water drops,” she says. Jenny has also double-lined this aqua-blue beauty with an apple-themed fabric that’s strong enough to carry your summer reading, crochet WIPs and whatever else you may need. Bring on the sun!
