Sandra Bullock’s Tote Bags Are a Timeless Building Block of Her Summer Outfits — and Jessica Alba Carries Them, Too

Everyone get on board! Sandra Bullock has officially jumped on the big bag train.

The Bullet train the actress, 60, did a complete 180 on Thursday when she was spotted carrying a large handbag that was night and day from the tiny tiny strap she clipped across her chest in July. It was much larger and seemed to be made of raffia, straw or rattan, so it was also lighter in color.

Jessica Alba is another star who has a similar style: she was recently spotted carrying a similar mini bag, as well as a larger tote bag, as seen on her Instagram. Jennifer Lopez also just added a $70,000 Hermès Kelly bag, which featured braided detailing, so the style is definitely gaining ground.

A little over a year ago, Bullock carried another straw bag, but on a smaller scale. Of course, that was then and this is now, that is, the time when large bags dominate. Luckily, this pick, now $17, has brown spots like the one she wore before and has the carrying capacity of her 2024 version. “It’s the perfect size for a water bottle, your wallet, phone, sunscreen, sunglasses and a book,” said one customer.

If you’re constantly spilling sunscreen, smoothies, and glittery makeup products, something with a lining, like this one from The Drop, will protect your bag from destruction. The fabric feels smooth, not something that will poke you. One customer even confirmed that it was “not a scratch”. And the handles have a unique pattern that could make them easier to spot on the beach or in the locker room.

Plus, you can connect the handles to keep the contents shaded, so your snacks stay fresh and your phone doesn’t overheat. Customers are buying it en masse, as it has been purchased more than 400 times this month.
