Jenna Ortega continues to go all-in on Big Fall Bags that won’t break the bank.
On August 28, the 22-year-old actor star stepped out for yet another Wednesday red carpet event, this time opting for an elevated take on a ripped t-shirt with ultra-chunky Mary-Jane platform boots. As if the DIY-inspired cuts on her cotton jersey GapStudio gown did not evoke enough teenage angst, she finished everything off with purposefully greasy hair to go with her grunge-inspired makeup and bleached brows.
And yet, amidst all the bold choices by her styling team, it was an off-carpet addition to her look that really caught my eye. Just before Netflix and Spotify’s Graveyard Gala, Ortega was photographed leaving the Bowery hotel carrying a large patent faux-leather shoulder bag by the South Korean brand STAND OIL.

The really cool thing about this bag, which features a silver buckle on its single shoulder strap, is that it’s actually reversible. While Ortega chose to wear her Ringo Bag with the glossy side out, it can also be flipped inside out to reveal a durable white canvas material. The best part: it’s only $75 before shipping.

Jenna Ortega and her stylist Enrique Melendez clearly have a keen eye for affordable carry-alls, from under-$100 options to mid-range luxury finds. Earlier this summer, Glamour noted Ortega had become quite fond of Hammitt, a Los Angeles-based designer bag brand known for crafting small batches of high-quality, moderately-priced leather accessories.
On May 3, she was seen toting around the brand’s slouchy black hobo bag with gunmetal hardware before switching to one of their smaller shoulder bags for a concert later that night. “I think I stole this from my stylist, Enrique, during a fitting,” she later told Vogue of her $575 Tom Bag, adding, “I like it because it’s got this red interior and I like the black and red combo.”
All in on the chocolate suede bag trend? No problem. Ortega was recently seen carrying a mid-sized version of the Tom bag that fits the bill for $495. While that’s certainly not cheap, it’s more on par with Coach and Staud than The Row or Miu Miu.
