As a fashion editor, it’s my job to keep an eye on the latest trends, and with handbags my accessory of choice, when I saw that Lululemon handbags were trending, my interest was piqued. Expecting to find a host of sportswear-ready holdalls, I was pleasantly surprised to find some seriously stylish iterations that I’d happily add to my capsule wardrobe.
From XL-sized crossbody bags, perfect for weekend outings, or packing as your holiday bag, to one of my favourite silhouettes, the camera bag, as well as gorgeous, directional top-handle designs. The Lululemon handbags all quietly nod to the latest spring/summer fashion trends for 2025, without feeling like you couldn’t wear them into the next season too, adding to longevity.
With many of the bags reflecting silhouettes similar to those of the best designer handbags, although each style carries the Lululemon logo, these could easily be mistaken for high-end pieces at a glance. oh, and the best bit? They’re all under £210, with plenty of options under £50 too.
Lululemon handbags are my surprise summer style inspo
When it comes to handbags, I don’t like to discriminate. Large, small, shoulder straps or crossbody, I love them all, but I am partial to a camera bag. As you might have guessed by the name, this small crossbody design was originally named for its purpose, but thanks to the multi-pocket design, this bag silhouette has become increasingly popular as a fashion item.
With one of the most popular designer camera crossbody bags being the Gucci Marmont. The Lululemon handbag design gives a similar look and feel (especially in the black colourway), but at a fraction of the price.
