WHO'S LULU?
Lulu Eschelman is the effortlessly cool California babe behind the luxe handbag line, LumillaMingus, which has recently attracted the attention of heavy hitting publications from the likes of Elle, Goop, and more.
Lulu's designs are born from her real, individual needs—most notably, a chic laptop bag for work, an everyday clutch that easily transitions from day to night, and a roomy, practical travel tote that can seamlessly take you through airports and into meetings.
Donned by busy celebs from the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow, Annie Bing, Jessica Szohr, and Louise Roe, it's no surprise that LumillaMingus bags are making their way into the spotlight. We caught up with Lulu to get the lowdown on how she puts her LumillaMingus totes and clutches to work throughout her crazy schedule, day in and day out...

Tote-ally Necessary
"I'm running around between meetings and after my children all day, so my Lucca maxi tote works extra hard, holding all my necessities from my laptop and fashion magazines to flats and makeup. Living in California, SPF is an absolute necessity. On days when I have no time to run home between work and dinner, I'm stocked with my Chanel and Beauty Counter cosmetic essentials to carry me through the day and into the night. My Laia clutch (which serves as a laptop cover and also my evening bag) also fits inside my tote. It is the ultimate day bag and travel essential to keep me organized and chic—every day and everywhere. I am constantly traveling between San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Europe, so my Lucca tote is my must-have travel essential.”

Clutch Materials
“The Laia clutch is the most stylish and functional clutch out there. A daytime or evening clutch that can double as a laptop case is a total no-brainer for me. Handmade from the softest leather, it's large enough to carry everything I need, yet it's super chic, contemporary, and fashionable. A wardrobe essential for every modern woman."
