If you didn't manage to get your hands on the Lulu Guinness x Waitrose collaboration bag, fear not. The designer label has just re-released its most coveted shopper; the Multi Striped Lip Beach Tote.
Retailing at £30, this fresh design has customers scrambling to secure one before it inevitably flies off the shelves. Renowned for its eccentric British style and iconic motifs, Lulu Guinness excels in transforming everyday accessories into standout pieces, and this tote is no exception.
Ideal for sunny day trips, extended weekend jaunts, or simply injecting a bit of character into your daily routine, it marries practicality with that unique Lulu flair.
Given its affordable price point, it's no wonder fans are already snapping up more than one. For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here
Made from 100% recycled PET (essentially, plastic bottles repurposed into something chic), this tote is spacious enough to accommodate everything from a beach towel to a 16-inch laptop, according to the Mirror.

The black-and-white stripes are a classic Lulu Guinness design, and the bag is completed with the brand's signature red lip motif and logo straps, along with a matching lip charm for a playful final touch, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Designed for everyday use, it features both an extended shoulder strap and a compact handle, allowing you to carry it in whichever way suits you best. Inside, there's a convenient zipped compartment plus two open pockets to help keep your belongings organised.
One delighted customer gushed: "This bag is beautiful. It has replaced my work bag for the summer! Worth every penny - was looking at the Waitrose one but this is much better. Thank you Lulu for brining this back at much a great price - I bought two!".
Tote bags have grown enormously popular over the past year, largely thanks to Lulu Guinness's supermarket partnerships and American retailers like Trader Joe's achieving viral status with their carrier bags.
If you're keen to replace your regular handbag with a tote, we're also fond of the Stripe Canvas Tote Bag from Damson Madder, costing £38.

Harry Clark breaks silence on his Celebrity SAS axing with stinging swipe at Channel 4 show - after being booted off for 'lying and cheating'

Harry Clark has broken silence on his Celebrity SAS axing with a stinging swipe at the Channel 4 show - after being booted off for 'lying and cheating'. The former British Army engineer, 24, was one of the famous faces taking part in the current series of the popular Channel 4 show. The course proved too much for the likes of S Club's Hannah Spearritt, TV personality Louie Spence, and Love Islanders Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri. Another two have left, including the star - who won The Traitors in 2024 - who decided to do 10 burpees after being instructed by Billy Billingham and Jason Fox to do 20. Earlier this week it was revealed that Harry was booted from the course during episode four by furious staff after being caught cutting corners. Speaking to The Sun about his shocking departure, Harry said: 'Obviously I was so disheartened and so annoyed, but at the same time in the back of my head I was like, "but it's all right though because I've made that switch, I'm here to stay". 'I did exactly what I would do in the military. And that's what annoyed me so much because it was like I just hit that switch, but they'd kicked me off for it. 'So it was like, well then how can I prove to you now that I've changed? 'But then at the same time, when I look back on it and I've matured a lot now, they've probably done me a favour because I know that the next big stage was the interrogation phase.' The reality star went on to admit that he 'hated' the experience. 'I didn't like the experience that much, personally, it made me angry at them and myself that I wanted to get better,' he added. 'I felt like they didn't like me. I absolutely hated it while I was there. I just want people to be able to look at me now and think that is a completely different person.' The fourth episode's theme focused on trust and integrity, but tensions exploded as former Traitors winner Harry Clark, 24, was booted from the course by furious staff after being caught cutting corners. Harry – whose skills in deception helped him scoop the Traitors crown – found his tactics backfired when his Celebrity SAS teammates branded him one of the least trustworthy recruits. Alongside Rebecca Loos, he was put in charge of a team for a gruelling race involving hauling a heavy dinghy. But as ex-Special Forces instructors Mark 'Billy' Billingham, Jason 'Foxy' Fox, Rudy Reyes, and Chris Oliver watched on, Harry appeared to avoid his share of the workload. His lack of effort left former football hardman Adebayo 'The Beast' Akinfenwa taking on the bulk of the weight – triggering a flare-up of his long-term knee injury. In pain and out of energy, Adebayo had no choice but to withdraw from the show entirely. Earlier in the show Jason Fox could be heard saying: 'If we get an indication that a recruit isn't pulling their weight, we will find out' so when back at camp, Harry was hauled in for a no-nonsense grilling. When confronted over failing to complete an earlier set of burpees, the staff accused him of lying straight to their faces. 'Are you f***ing trying to pull the wool over my eyes?!' Chris raged, before adding the star was treating him 'like an idiot'. Moments later, the ex army corporal was marched out in front of the rest of the recruits, and admitted that he had 'cut corners' and not completed all the burpees. Mark then shouted: 'No, you lied, you cut corners, I asked you three times about honesty and integrity, and what did you do?' Harry replied: 'I lied, staff.' His dismissal was immediate, with the DS ordering him to hand over his armband and leave, while his stunned co-stars looked on.

Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club sees Harry Potter star in huge role

Netflix is bringing Richard Osman's book, The Thursday Murder Club, to screens with a film adaptation that promises to be a hit. The director is known for his work on Harry Potter. Netflix has gone all out for the film adaptation of Richard Osman's bestselling novel, The Thursday Murder Club – packed with a killer cast and a well-known director behind the camera. ‌ Set in the picturesque Coopers Chase retirement village in Kent, the story follows four sharp-minded pensioners who meet weekly to pore over unsolved crimes. But when a real-life murder falls into their laps, they swap coffees and chit chat for sleuthing. ‌ Behind the camera is Chris Columbus, the director behind the first two Harry Potter films, Mrs Doubtfire and Home Alone. His time on the Potter franchise gave him a deep affection for Britain and its quirky humour. ‌ 'During Potter, I spent five years living in the UK,' he says. 'I grew quite fond of the dark, edgy British humour and I managed to incorporate some of that into those films and much more of it into The Thursday Murder Club .' Finding a writer to adapt Richard Osman 's work was tricky. 'I was a fan of the books, but the initial scripts I read veered far from the novel,' Chris says. 'I felt this was a mistake and I wanted to preserve what everyone loved about the book.' Enter actress and comedian Katy Brand. Chris says, 'When I met with Katy, I was convinced she not only understood what made the novel so popular, but she also had the vision to write a film that was faithful to the source material.' Leading the charge in the line-up is Helen Mirren as Elizabeth Best. Throughout her career, Helen has played everything from steely assassins to Queen Elizabeth II. Now, she's playing a woman with a past shrouded in secrecy. 'We can tell she was someone powerful and substantial, but it's all a bit secret,' Helen says. 'Was she a high level politician? Was she a high level operative in MI5 or MI6? She never quite talks about it, but we get a sense. She's tough, she's smart and she has witnessed some heavy duty things.' ‌ Joining her is Pierce Brosnan, best known for donning James Bond 's tuxedos. He trades spying for laughs to play Ron Ritchie. 'Ron is a stout fellow of good character,' Pierce says. 'He doesn't particularly want to be at Coopers Chase, but there's a time in life when you just have to hang up your spurs.' Ron's good friend Ibrahim Arif (Ben Kingsley) is a psychiatrist whose skills prove invaluable to the club's investigations. 'He's clearly empathetic because he's a psychiatrist and he needs to interpret patterns of human behaviour in order to heal,' Ben says. 'Now he can bring those same skills to a forensic quest to solve unsolved police cases through empathy, knowledge of patterns of human behaviour, compassion and imagination.' ‌ Elizabeth strikes up a bond with newcomer Joyce Meadowcroft, a recently widowed woman who's determined to fit in. Celia Imrie brings Joyce to life. 'Sir Laurence Olivier always said you've got to like the person you're playing – and I really did,' says Celia. 'Joyce has an innocence about her. ‌ She's unsure of herself but fun, enthusiastic and a good sport. At the beginning of the film she wants, very much, to be included and is especially keen to make new friends.' The four pals cross paths with PC Donna De Freitas, played by Naomi Ackie, a police officer they help unofficially – to the irritation of her superior. 'It was a really big pull for me to work with these juggernauts of British screen, who I've looked up to for a long time,' says Naomi. 'Having them consolidated into one project was really great. They are so gracious with their talent and it's been a real joy getting to know them.' ‌ The drama isn't confined to the murder mystery. David Tennant joins the mix as Ian Ventham, co-owner of Coopers Chase, whose redevelopment plans could force residents out. 'He's not the most sympathetic character,' David says. 'He's just someone who's got himself in a very particular situation and doesn't have the people skills to get through life with as much charm as one might hope he should have.' ‌ The love for the novels also runs deeply within the cast. 'I was one of the many millions who read the book and loved it,' says Helen. 'I was utterly charmed by it. My friends who read the book said, 'If they ever make a movie, you have to play Elizabeth.'' For Pierce, the project was a chance to collaborate with Chris again. 'He's s an old pal,' he says. 'He seems to come around every 10 years or so with wonderful jobs for me. He sent me the script and I loved it.' The Thursday Murder Club is released on Netflix on August 28th.
