Lululemon may have initially gone viral for its Everywhere Belt Bag and Mini Shoulder Bag, but the athleisure brand has a new accessory that’s quickly becoming a coveted purse — especially when paired with a popular and easy TikTok DIY hack. Lululemon’s new Mini Barrel Duffle Bag has TikTokers obsessed with its chic design that, when paired with bows, becomes a designer-worthy handbag (and for less than $100).
More than 10 million videos have been made about the mini Luluelmon duffle bag, with most of them showing off the bow trend that’s “so easy” to replicate. User @dallas__333 even gathered more than 11,000 likes for a video demonstrating how to get your bow to “sit perfectly” every time, which you can see below.

All you need is satin ribbon to complete the look — here’s a white ribbon option for a contrasting look or there’s this black version if you’d prefer a monochromatic style.
Whether you plan on hitting a yoga class or are just going out with friends for drinks, this barrel bag will add a fashionable touch to all of your outfits (day or night). It comes in two shades: black and blue and features an adjustable crossbody strap that can also be removed and turned into a handbag.

Knit Nylon Mini Barrel Duffle Bag 5L
This duffle bag comes with a barrel-shaped body complete with a zipper closure to keep your belongings safe and secure. The exterior uses a smooth nylon and water-repellent material that’ll keep you phone, wallet, sunglasses and other accessories dry. You’ll also find a mini zippered pocket on the inside for extra storage options.
The rounded shape of this mini duffle is reminiscent of luxury purses at more than ten times the price, but we like the versatility of this Lululemon version, with both a top handle and shoulder strap for easy carrying. The nylon material is also super easy to wipe clean and take care of (versus say, this leather version from Coach).
One Lululemon reviewer even wrote on the site that they returned their luxury designer purse for this mini duffle as it’s spacious yet trendy to pair with day and night looks. “So I decided to return a Marc Jacobs small tote for this bag,” the reviewer wrote. “It hits all the marks for day to evening wear. Super lightweight and quality is perfect.”
