Zip-top summer rattan shoulder bag for kids' gear: Meda Bag Rattan Bag

Daytime temperatures have shot up and outfits have gotten so much lighter lately~ it really feels like summer has arrived!! When the season changes, the daily bag you carry every day needs a change too, I think. So I tried the Meda Bag rattan bag, a great summer bag :)

What kind of bag is the Meda Bag rattan bag?

The Meda Bag rattan bag is a summer shoulder bag made of tightly woven rattan. Say "rattan bag" and it instantly feels like the perfect bag to carry on a holiday~

It looks casual yet polished, so it goes well with travel looks and really with any relaxed outfit, wherever you're headed!

A cute teddy bear keyring came with the Meda Bag rattan bag, and you can hang it on the bag however you like! Jane planned to clip it onto her bag too, but the little bear caught my kids' eyes right away~ And the bear is carrying a bag himself, which is such a cute detail!!

The rattan's texture is woven so tightly that there's no scratchiness, and the bag feels clean and neat.

Is there enough room for the kids' things too?

Above all, the Meda Bag rattan bag has plenty of storage, and even with lots of belongings inside, the weave didn't loosen or sag. I still have loads of kids' stuff to pack whenever we go out, so a small bag is a problem~ That's why I was even happier with it.

Small items can get mixed up inside a bag and be a hassle to dig out~ The Meda Bag rattan bag has a separate open pocket inside, so you can keep small belongings together!

Does the rattan bag have a lining?

The Meda Bag rattan bag has a soft lining added inside. Lots of rattan bags come with no lining at all~ With those, small things can get caught in the weave or the inside can look messy, but the Meda Bag isn't all rattan inside, so it's great for packing in lots of different things. I think it's a summer bag that pays attention to the small details.

Does the zip give peace of mind on holiday?

The opening of the Meda Bag shoulder bag closes with a zip, so nobody can see right inside!! And it protects your belongings so you don't have to worry about losing them!! Jane liked this zip detail best of all, and thanks to it, I think you can worry a little less about losing important things when you use it on a holiday trip :)

How is the Meda Bag rattan bag's weight and fit?

The Meda Bag rattan bag is a shoulder bag, and the bag itself is on the light side, so it's no burden. You can tell at a glance that the size is generous, right~ Even with things inside, it doesn't lose its shape, so the pretty silhouette stays, which I loved.

Beige or brown: which color should you pick?

The Meda Bag rattan bag comes in two colors, beige and brown, and Jane brought home the brown one! The beige is a light ivory and pretty, but as pretty as it is, I figured color transfer would worry me, haha, so I picked the darker color that's a bit easier to look after!!

Brown goes well with my usual daily looks, so it's practical, and I think I'll carry it everywhere. I have a strong feeling this one bag will carry me through the whole summer~~ I'm even thinking of buying the beige one too and alternating between them :)

Which summer outfits suit the rattan bag?

The Meda Bag rattan bag goes with casual summer outfits like dresses, shirts and shorts. One summer bag seems to finish the whole summer look!! It's an especially perfect match for Jane, who loves black clothes~ I just wore it with my pajamas at home, and the outfit didn't feel like pajamas anymore!! It blends into casual, daily looks really naturally :)

It suits all casual styles, whether a summer dress, a shirt or shorts, and with a simple outfit the bag actually becomes the focal point. The combo of dress + rattan bag + sandals especially gives an effortlessly put-together style that looks stylish yet comfortable, so I wear it a lot!!

Is the Meda Bag rattan bag good to carry every day?

The kids' things, drinks, snacks and even an iPad are inside the Meda Bag rattan bag, and it still looks slim rather than bulging, that's how roomy it is. On a hot day a heavy bag just wears you out more~ It blends into summer outfits, so it's easy to carry daily and I think it's very versatile!

In winter it feels a bit chilly, admittedly, but otherwise it's good for spring, summer and autumn alike, and as a rattan bag with a zip detail I'm happy with the overall quality. If you're looking for a summer daily bag you won't get tired of carrying, or a holiday shoulder bag, give the Meda Bag rattan bag a try!
