Enough raving about the black and white basics, let’s be bold and fearlessly step out in bright accessories this summer.

Samudra Moorea Shark Pouch at Shopbop for $65

Blue always seems to be the primary go to color when sporting a vivid shade. Some are convinced blue has calmly properties on the brain, like the ocean. Every summer we gravitate towards the waves of the great blue sea to relax and let the hours pass by. Samudra Moorea’s ‘Shark Pouch’ captures those moments in soft aqua and teal and sea life printed on a sturdy canvas.

Marc By Marc Jacobs Isabelle Werdie Shoulder Bag at SSENSE for $190

Every Marc Jacobs handbag accelerates to iconic status. I doubt the weavy leather of the ‘Isabelle Werdie Shoulder Bag’ will be an exception. Especially, when boosting such an illuminating hue. Bright colors only work to enhance our summer glow, and the neon yellow of this bag will highlight your golden limbs. Taupe leather trims restrain the Isabelle Werdie from being too wild, and gold hardware remind you that even in a neon shade, this Marc by Marc Jacobs handbag is still a luxury name.

Fendi Medium 2Jours Bag at Luisaviaroma for $1,904

Oh, what a popular bag the 2Jours is. Every celebrity darling from Reese Witherspoon to Kate Moss enjoys carrying it about town; each in her own special color. Yet, like Reese Witherspoon who choose to carry her’s in a cheerful orange, I think that shade suits summer best. It’s structured shape is what every Hitchcock blonde would carry and the personalized tag is nod to world class sophistication.

Proenza Schouler PS1 Medium Satchel at Forward by Elyse Walker for $1,695

Once again all the pretty girls prove that the boys at Proenza Schouler are cool. Cool enough to be carried by the Olsens, a Hilton, Ms. Alba, and Kirsten Dunst. Oh, and did I mention that Leighton Meester has three of them? Yes, Ms. Messter has three little PS1s, all wrapped in leather or suede and adorned with belt like straps. Topped off with a little handle you can carry the PS1 at your side or sling the long strap across your shoulder. Either way, it’s cool. And, because it’s cool, I’m expecting the light peacock shade to soon sell out.

Tory Burch Mini Square Tote at Luisaviaroma for $605

Tory Burch is a status symbol among Upper East Siders and women across the world seeking a dose of understated luxury. Even blazing pink, the ‘Robinson Mini Tote’ retains its pedigree in a simple shape embellished only with a tiny Tory Burch logo. How is it that Ms. Burch can take the anthem color of doll and still make it look tame and refined? I suppose that’s what you’d call the Robinson.
