Loren, our bestselling work tote.
The stylish work bag that works for you, not against you.
The Problem
Looking for a work bag that's stylish and functional?
Many moons ago, when I was an advertising executive in London, I had a recurring problem when it came to shopping for a good work bag: I wanted a bag that was large and lightweight. Back in those days, I spent most of my day on the tube, schlepping my bag to work, to meetings, to the gym, and then sometimes out to drinks or dinner. So, besides quality and style, weight and capacity were my top two factors when looking for the perfect work tote.
Laptops are much lighter now, but I still carry my life in my bag today: a book, my computer or tablet, snacks, a water bottle, and a make-up pouch, not to mention the multitude of everyday essentials I just can’t live without. Sound familiar? If so, then you’d probably agree when I say that the perfect work bag should be large enough to lug all your things around, but
also lightweight so that it won’t break your back by the end of the day.
YOU ASKED, I DESIGNED.
The only work tote you will ever need is here!
So, if you’ve been on the hunt for the ideal work tote, I’m happy to inform you that your search is finally over - Yay!
I designed the Loren Tote with you in mind because I want you to enjoy your next bag and wear it for many years to come, fill it with everything you need without having to edit things out for fear of it weighing you down.
This beautifully crafted tote bag will carry all you need for the rigours of a busy working life. And as a bonus, it’s also light enough so that you don’t feel like it’s ‘carry your toddler to work’ day!
With a removable shoulder strap, you can also wear it on your shoulder, keeping your hands free on your daily commute - just think of all those extra messages you’ll be able to send in that time!
Our Secret Sauce?
Our easy to clean, durable, lightweight leather.
Like the rest of our collection, the Loren Tote is made with our signature lightweight, double-sided leather. I travelled all over Italy to find it for you!
On the outside, you will find smooth and buttery-soft leather that is easy to spot clean (with a fragrance-free, oil-free baby wipe). On the inside, there is a beautiful contrast-coloured suede, which essentially functions as the bag’s lining. By using this bonded suede leather, I’m proud to bring you the lightest leather bags on the market. I kid you not, this bag is as light as your Tall latte!
Available in two sizes
“I’d always wanted a bag that would take weight off my shoulder, not add to it, and a timeless design that is effortlessly stylish and luxuriously chic.”
- ALEXANDRA
My Promise
A timeless bag that will stand the test of time.
As a multi-tasking mum and business owner, my bag has to be durable and survive a lot of wear and tear. That’s why, when I founded my company, it was vital for me to find the best quality leather on the market. It had to be easy to clean and hold its shape well, but also soft and lightweight. If your life is anything like mine, your bag tends to get thrown around A LOT, and having a leather that can stand the test of time and some bumps and bruises is a total must!
So it probably won’t surprise you that one of my biggest pet peeves when shopping for a new bag is the quality of the leather and craftsmanship, that's why I proudly stand behind the design and quality of our products. If for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may return or exchange it within 14 days.

The making of our bestselling Loren Tote
Our workshop is located in Rome, Italy, and our team of expert artisans have been working with leather for over 60 years. That’s why wearing one of our products doesn’t just mean owning a unique handcrafted accessory, but you’re also supporting an ancient Italian craft that is struggling to survive.
The workmanship is made up of slow, careful, and encoded gestures that are at the heart of this typically Italian expertise. Each bag is made by our four artisans with specific skill-sets, and takes 6-8 hours to make by hand.
