Stop grasping at style straws — this bag style is going to take your look to a whole new level.
While Jessica Alba has been spotted wearing crossbody phone bags and hands-free belt bags in the past, she’s really into one specific raffia bag lately: The Azalia Tote from Btb Los Angeles. The 43-year-old has carried the flower-embellished accessory, which costs a hefty $275, twice in July, per the brand. She’s worn it with jeans and sneakers, as well as with sandals and a bomber jacket.
Alba’s seasonal raffia bag is beachy like Jennifer Aniston’s straw tote bag in Murder Mystery 2 and Sarah Jessica Parker’s AJLT… wicker clutch, which both also fall under summer accessories. Only Alba wore hers IRL, and it’s great for pool parties, taking on vacation, and so much more. It’s also more seasonal than a leather bag, but shows less dirt than a canvas one.
Alba’s almost sold-out bag is a tote, but it looks miniature to us, just like this one from The Drop. The classic raffia hue is contrasted with a rich caramel color that will match at least one pair of your summer sandals. It also has handles that can be held or popped onto your forearm, and comes with a crossbody strap.
It’s not as roomy as the totes seen on Jennifer Lawrence, Chrissy Teigen, and Olivia Wilde, but it’s definitely wearable for day-to-day. Get it for $55 now.
This bucket bag has flowers and pearls, the latter of which “make it look more expensive/fancier than what it really is,” said one customer, who carried it in Italy. “It fits way more than I thought and the drawstrings made me feel like I wouldn’t get pickpocketed as easily.” It’s also dressy for summer weddings and cocktail parties, but isn’t so extravagant that you couldn’t wear it to a parent-teacher conference.
If you want to add a bag from Btb Los Angeles to your purse collection, this smaller tote also has some frills, but it’s $150 less than Alba’s. Or, if you need something with a Mary Poppins-level of spaciousness, Anthropologie and Banana Republic have bigger totes, and both of our picks have double discounts now.
