Bag It
The Baré Backpack by Clark & Madison gets its name from Jeanne Baré, the first woman to circumnavigate the globe. Baré disguised herself as a man to make her journey, hence the tomboy feel to this canvas-and-leather bag. Straps are convertible, allowing you to carry it as a backpack, a tote or cross-body bag. Every inch, from its vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather to the oatmeal-colored canvas body and natural linen lining, is made in Los Angeles. It hits the shelves this month. Price $320. Available exclusively at Juice Served Here, 3418 Via Lido, Newport Beach
