If you’re looking for a small simple bag, you can end your search now. Foldover purses give you easy access to your belongings, which means you can whip out your phone in five seconds flat. You won’t have to deal with unzipping or digging, either. The main compartments of these purses might not be very large, but there’s plenty of space to store your essentials plus a couple of lip color options. A girl needs a selection to get her through the day. These lightweight foldovers are adjustable. If you like being able to switch from crossbody to clutch at the drop of a hat, these purses all have removable straps, proving that even fashion is optimized these days.
Available in neutrals or sometimes a variety of colors, foldover bags can easily become your go-to school or work tote, especially if you tend to carry around a wallet, keys and phone. This type of bag is great for everyday, casual hangouts, traveling, outdoor adventures and even a night out in the city.
We rounded up the best foldover bags that you can find. For fashionistas who are eco- and animal-conscious, two of our three picks are made out of vegan leather, too. Two of our bags have zippered foldover pockets, which you can store even more cosmetics or a pair of chic sunglasses in. You won’t want to leave the house without one of these adaptable purses again.
