While we can’t blame you for still carrying the Foley & Corinna city tote, we will offer an alternative. The Loulou bag from Ananas also does double duty—it’s an over-the-shoulder purse that converts into a low-slung messenger bag. Available in four colors (bone, black, brown, and red), it also has handmade-in-the-Philippines wooden accents on the straps giving it that earthy, boho vibe. And if you still need another reason to go Ananas, the line makes an effort to be environmentally friendly too—for every bag sold, designer Jennifer Lagdameo has a tree planted in the Philippines. Consider us sold, and it bought.
