Hello from Australia! I think the answer to this depends on what you are planning to do and where you are planning to go during your trip. If you will be travelling in the far north, at the beach or generally outside the capital cities you might find something more casual and summery will suit the vibe better and cause less overall anxiety about damage from sunscreen. I quite often opt for non-H bags on holiday in January - current favourites include a BV raffia and leather intrecciato bag or a Saint Laurent raffia tote that feel more appropriate to the relaxed holiday season. My black bags get limited use at this time of year. If you plan to spend lots of time in Sydney, Melbourne etc you can really carry whatever you want though.
