Almost Perfect items can feature more prominent character marks than our Premium line, and/or small stitching variations, showcasing the aesthetic variety of our natural hides and handmade designs.
Why do you use leather with prominent character marks in the first place?
We only qualify Almost Perfect in terms of cosmetic irregularities that have absolutely no impact on the quality or durability of our products. Rather, we figured that it'd be a shame to waste such beautiful and functional leather, so we decided to sell it at a discounted price.
What type of imperfection will I get with this bag?
Each of our Almost Perfect bags is one of a kind! While we can't say for sure which one you'll receive, some common character marks our customers find are pebbling and color variation, scars and striations, or a stitch out of place. That being said, rest assured that none of these "imperfections" will impact the functionality of the bag in any way!
What if I don't love my Almost Perfect bag?
Everything from our Almost Perfect collection (excluding Mystery Box bundles) falls under our usual return policy. For more detailed information, visit our Returns page.
Please note that our pebbled leather, like all of our leather, is a natural product. You may notice changes in grain or texture throughout your bag. Other companies artificially press a pebble texture into their leather. However, the pebbling of our leather is achieved naturally through an extra tumbling process which leaves some areas of the hide smoother than others.

Perfect size, neat/clean style
by: Jennifer D.
Love this Dakota small Lola — the size is perfect for summer. I think in Fall id need something slightly bigger — but this is such a perfect companion for rompin around in jeans/with or wothout the lods. Love the structure and can dress it up or down!
If I could give it more that 5 stars, I would!
by: Shannon S.
I absolutely adore my Lola bag. The black pebbled color is my favorite so far (I have a few PLG’s bags). Her structured shell, and sleek color look perfect together. I always wear her crossbody, but the grab and go handles are good when I gotta run! She is the perfect size for me. I tend get too large if a bag, then stuff it painfully full, but she is smaller so that isn’t an issue. BUT she holds a surprising amount for being a more petite size. I love the inside and outside pocket slot and they hold my eyeglasses (inside) and my phone (iPhone 14 pro max- in the outside pocket). Yes the phone sticks out a little but I like that so I can easily slip it out to use. Lastly, I love the magnetic closure. I’m usually a zipper girl but the magnet keeps everything hidden. Anyway, just buy the Lola!
LOVE the Lola! LOVE chocolate brown! This bag is everything

LOVE the Lola! LOVE chocolate brown! This bag is everything, I have no idea why I waited so long to try this bag! I’m going to have to collect a few more colors
A favorite
by: Robin R.
I LOVE the Lola!! One of my favorites! It’s the perfect in between size, comfortable to carry (I never use the shoulder strap), and I love the front outside pocket for my phone. I believe this Moonflower is the fifth Lola I bought, but the first one with a zipper. I honestly prefer no zipper but they were sold out of that one and I had to have the moonflower color, it’s not a big deal I just don’t zip it. But I highly recommend the Lola! The pebbled leather ones are my favorite!
Beautiful purse
by: Karen S.
This “almost perfect” Lola crossbody tote in nutmeg is beautiful! The leather is so soft. And even though it’s soft and supple the bag is sewn in such a way that it does stand up. Honestly, I can’t see anything wrong with it except for one very small imperfection in the leather that no one would ever notice. I’m very pleased with my purchase.
Can't get enough of Night Owl!
by: Alice O.
I love this new bag! I have another N/S Lola (in fog) and love its vertical orientation. Did I need another one? No. But Night Owl wasn't available before and now I have started a company and our main color is navy blue. So obviously I had to get one. I ordered both the E/W and the N/S as peoples they love their E/Ws. I really liked them both, and thought maybe I should keep the E/W because I already have a N/S. So I test-packed the E/W and left in on display for me to look at each time I went into the room. And each time I thought "That does look good", but I was somehow secretly pining for the verticality instead. And the N/S had some great striations on the front pocket. So the N/S is my winner and I love her! Top view has a 13 in MacBook Air laptop sleeve, 2 LD planners (just in case), my stethoscope, my water bottle, a large LD pencil case in the bottom, then standing on top of that are a small eclipse and travel coffee mug.

Lola Love
by: Lisa R.
This bag, in cognac, has quickly become my absolute favorite bag. It is so beautiful in person. With an organizer inside, fits all my essentials with room to spare and keeps them nice and organized. Inhave Lola's in both classic and zipper and I love them both.
Astro Blue is so pretty!
by: Samantha K.
Astro Blue Lola is like a primary blue hue, she's surprisingly squishy, pebbly, soft, and floppy. I paired it with a bone multipstrap and its gorgeous! My go to when I want something small with a fun pop color! I don't normally like Lola's because of the structured side, but this one was so pretty I couldn't resist!
Best Bag Yet
by: Mary B.
I love my Classic Lola Crossbody in Dragon Bone. The leather is beautiful and Lola is so versatile. All the things I carry fit with ease and don’t get lost in the bottom of the bag, with room left over if I need my Kindle or checkbook. Brushed leather is so easy to care for and smells so heavenly right out of the box. Dragon Bone is a versatile neutral!!
LOVE the zipper Lola!!!
by: Stephanie V.
This new zippered Lola is fabulous! Absolutely love the structure of Honey, too! It’s just a classy bag!
Lola Honey
by: Cheryl R.
This is my new go to bag! The leather is gorgeous and the size is perfect to carry just what I need without being too large & heavy! It’s the perfect planner bag!
Lola is the perfect size!
by: Jasmine S.
Lola is just the right size between a mini cb and a medium cb! She holds all the things without feeling so heavy! I love her!
Nutmeg Lola
by: Evelyn M.
The most squishiest bag I known. So soft and beautiful and so pebbly. Love my Lola girl!
Classic design
by: Anna D.
Lola has classy lines, convenient pockets, perfect size, and upgraded, slightly larger grab handles from the crossbodies. It's very different from their other standard products and I love it!!
Customer Reviews
Bought this handbag (tote) for my wife - she loves it!
Beautifully made- simple & iconic design!
We are fans!
This bag hold much more than I ever thought it would! Nutmeg is slouchy which allows more to fit in the bag than the firmer leathers do. But is also keeps its shape well because of the defined edge stitching. The cross body strap is nice for short trips shopping, but for longer days, I switch to the thicker straps for comfort as it does get a bit heavy on the shoulder, especially if you are adding more to your bag as the day goes.. Lola is a keeper and I’ll likely get a few more colors.
Almost perfect Velvet Blue Lola is PERFECT! Love the color, love the feel of the leather and perfect size. Supposed to be AP but I don’t see anything wrong with it! Just what I wanted- a dark navy looking small but big enough bag!
Such a beautiful bag! I love the color and it looks so classy! So glad to add it to my PLG collection!
I love the style the color the size is a little smaller than I imagined but I believe I'll love it cause I have so many big bags, and now since I've retired I don't need to carry as much.
