The retailer has impressed customers with its colourful selection of beaded summer accessories
Primark shoppers have fallen in love with two £6 items they think would make the perfect summer bags. The beaded styles are ideal for fruit lovers looking for playful accessories for their warm weather wardrobe, as fans love the “cutest” designs.
The summer-ready styles went viral on social media when shoppers showcased the watermelon and lemon bags on TikTok. Both bags resemble fruit slices, with a slim silhouette and zip-close fastening, and they’re adorned with colourful beads. Shoppers say they “need” both bags.
In one video shared by @hope.dgh, a blogger wrote: “How cute are these lemon and watermelon slice beaded bags from Primark? It’s giving summmerrr.” In another post, @ alexox994 said: “I found the cutest beaded bags in Primark & they were only £6!!”
Viewers loved the fruit-themed designs. Replying to the clips, one commenter praised: “Love these!!” Another fan said: “They are killing us with all the cute beaded stuff!!!!! My wallet is hurting.”
Someone replied: “For real.” Another excited comment read: “NEED!!!!” A similar comment said: “Need both now.” Someone replied: “Sooo freaking cute.”
A different response said: “Oh my god.” A viewer tagged a friend, writing: “I fear you need them.” Someone else told a fellow social media user: “Omg the lemon one I think I need.”
However, others debated whether the beaded styles could be classed as bags. For instance, a commenter asked: “Are these small bags or purses?” Someone thought: “They are purses, literally fit in the palm of your hand.” While it doesn’t look like either style could fit a phone, they could be used to hold items like keys, money, and lip balm.
Shoppers looking for larger accessories might like Primark’s £16 Beaded Shoulder Bag. Described as a “beaded shoulder bag with summer inspired motifs and colourful accents,” there are two colours available.
One is a blue and white bag with lemon detailing, while the other also has a blue and white theme but it is adorned with orange and white starfish. Both bags are available to click and collect on Primark’s website.
The product description for the starfish bag says: “This playful shoulder bag is here to brighten your day. With a bold blue and white background and a cheerful starfish design, it’s made to stand out. The structured silhouette and flap closure keep your essentials secure, while the beaded strap adds a little extra texture.
“Perfect for slinging over your shoulder on sunny days or adding a splash of fun to your look all year round. It’s lined inside to keep your bits and bobs safe, with just enough room for your phone, wallet and lip balm.”
