We may have just started the year but people are already gearing up for the summer! As for me, I'm already feeling excited just imagining the beach, thinking about the sand underneath my feet, and hearing the waves crash on the shore. Casually window shopping for what I'll be using on my trip (or trips, if more actually get out of the group chat) just adds to the excitement. So you can imagine how I felt when I saw the Uniqlo and JW Anderson Drawstring Bag.

Meet your new out-of-town essential, the Uniqlo × JW Anderson Drawstring Bag
Officially released on January 17, this new drawstring bag has a compact, cylindrical shape and spacious capacity that makes it perfect for upcoming beach trips. It's not too bulky, so you can comfortably carry it on your lap during a long road trip or stash it underneath your car seat. But if we're talking about versatility, commuter girlies will find that this bag won't get in your way as you try to squeeze your way into a bus or the MRT.
And if you're a fan of Uniqlo bags, *cough, the moon bag, cough* then you already know their quality. Plus, it can dupe you with the amount of things it can contain.

Like their uber-trending moon bags, the Uniqlo × JW Anderson Drawstring Bag also comes in hues like pink, orange, green, and blue that add more color to your summer OOTDs.
Now diving into the technicalities of the bag, its body is made with 100% cotton while its shoulder is made with 100% polyester, exclusive of its decoration, so you can throw it into the wash after a trip. It's 5.4 inches wide and 18.1 inches long—big enough to carry sunscreen, a water bottle, your Kindle, and other poolside essentials.

The Uniqlo × JW Anderson Drawstring bag retails for P1,490 with its full lineup available in select stores nationwide and the Uniqlo official online store. But it looks like we're not the only ones needing this bag for future OOTDs because it's currently sold out on the website. Stay tuned for the online restock or visit physical stores to see if it's still available.
