Summer, officially, is only 2 weeks away, and the heat is in the air. All I can think of is the beach and I love the summer beach tote collections. Here is a top five list of my choice replica handbags for the beach this year. From Louis Vuitton, Prada, Chanel, and Gucci.

Now depending on where you live, my timing might be bang on, or not so much, but I hereby declare beach season underway! I`ve been waiting months with my Ipanema bag already packed with a two piece and sandals, and I`m aching to hit the boardwalk—any boardwalk!. Ladies unite! If ever there was a crucial time for a style pow-wow, it`s the verge of summer. Here are my top five picks for replica handbags for the beach this season.

Replica Louis Vuitton Ipanema

Pictured in the Louis Vuitton ad above, the Ipanema is one of the must have totes of the summer. It`s a new monogram for LV, a spacious, casual, durable and styling bag that begs to be brought to the beach. You might prefer the white, it also comes in yellow, but I prefer this blue. They call it navy, but I`d almost say that`s violet…regardless of colour, it`s all about oversized shades and an Ipanema.

Replica Chanel Coisiere 2010

I think the most impressive summer collection this year overall was Chanel`s. I just can`t separate summer 2010 fashion from the imagery Chanel conjured up for me. It just has that style secret that gets into your subconscious and makes so much sense—Of course I want to wear Chanel to the beach this summer, you say to yourself….of course. Well how about the special edition replica Chanel Coisiere tote? Designed for this very summer.

Replica Gucci Sunset

Can you see yourself strolling along the boardwalk at the end of an afternoon in a beach chair, with the sun going down over the sparkling water, the Gucci sunset on your arm, and you man on the other, en route to patio for a glass of white wine? That is precisely what this bag was designed for, and while the vacation doesn`t come with it, the feeling does! I love the warm color, the smooth leather bottom, the simplicity.

Replica Prada Safiano

A month ago I wrote about the perforated leather trend in several summer 2010 collections. I just love the Prada take on it with this Safiano. It`s the choice for a sporty look at the beach—maybe more of a San Diego look than L.A if that makes any sense at all. Anyway, this, like the Ipanema, is all the rage right now.

Replica Chanel Fabric Tote

Now if I were to find myself on a European beach this summer, perhaps at the Lido in Venice where the actual Chanel resort show was, I`d be wearing this bag. Nautically coloured, with a boxy, chic shape, this bag keeps high style alive on the seaside terrasse.
