Packing for a beach trip usually constitutes finding the right swimsuits, fitting the best summer dresses, and stocking up on the sunscreen. What we usually don't pay that much attention to is what kind of bag we're bringing ('cause let's be real, you don't want to be lugging around something bulky on the sand). Usually, we just end up grabbing the nearest carry-all that has enough space for our things.
If you're looking to up your tote game on your next island getaway, you best look to style siren Marie Lozano. The news anchor is an aficionado when it comes to seaside dressing, and she's got a couple of suggestions for what types of bags to shop. Chart the ones we spotted on her Instagram below!
LOOK: 4 Marie Lozano-approved beach bags
1. Mini Mochila from Colombian Collective
Intricately handwoven by Colombian artisans, this neutral-toned body bag is what you need for any casual occasion by the shore. The weaving details and pompoms are sure to add that whimsical chicness to your flowy dress OOTDs.

2. Bamboo Circle bag from Cult Gaia
This handbag immediately puts anyone who totes it in a vacay state of mind. Its circular body has enough room to house all of your essentials at arm's reach, and the baubles serving as its handle couldn't be a cuter touch.

Marie has the Cult Gaia piece in a dual-toned brown. Below, we found one that comes in a more understated yet still as stylish monochromatic hue.

3. Cueba Daisy bag from Aranaz
Attending a beach wedding, or having brunch under the palm trees? Go and grab something similar to this woven handbag of Marie's. Despite its petite size, we're sure it'll come in handy when keeping your things safe. And come on, you can't deny how darling it looks!

While the exact yellow one Marie has is currently out of stock, Aranaz still has multiple designs in similar shapes ready for you to shop. We're particularly smitten by this floral oval-shaped one.
