In the summer months, we prefer to keep our accessories low-maintenance and casual by ditching oversized caryalls in favor of small day clutches and colorful pouches. These have just enough room to hold the necessities—an iPhone, lip gloss, sunglasses, and a credit card—and are perfect for both summer getaways and weekends in the city.
