About Us - Preppy, Sustainable Handbags & Resort Accessories

Welcome to Bourbon & Bamboo, where timeless preppy style meets resort-ready function. Founded by lifelong friends Chris and Kimm, we design handbags, totes, crossbody bags, cosmetics bags, lunch totes, and wine totes for travel, the beach, and everyday life. Every piece is crafted from lightweight, water-resistant, washable fabric and finished with our signature sustainably-sourced bamboo handles and bamboo zipper pulls — a small detail that sets Bourbon & Bamboo apart from every other handbag brand.

Classic Patterns, Sustainable Materials, Everyday Function

Our designs blend classic preppy patterns with vibrant colors and whimsical touches, so your everyday essentials never look ordinary. Each bag is packable and lightweight, built to go from a beachside retreat to exploring the city without missing a beat — durable enough for daily use, elegant enough for a night out.

Why Bamboo?

We chose bamboo for our handles and zipper pulls because it's a fast-renewing, eco-friendly material that doesn't compromise on strength or style. It's our way of building sustainability into every bag, not just talking about it.
