Not enough time is spent considering the humble beach bag.

Its varied colours and styles, its woven straw outer and soft fabric canvas inner, they're worth a bit of our time, don't you think?

Yet for most of us a beach bag (or the nearest plastic bag, let's be honest) is an after thought – something we pick up at the supermarket when we realise, at the last minute, we have nothing to put our beach supplies in. We spend weeks choosing the swim suit, our perfect sandals and the sunglasses, but we just don't ever seem to think about the bag.
