Tim Burton's adaptation may have had its share of "awww" moments, but it's the classic Disney version of Dumbo that will always stay close to our hearts.

The new Loewe Paula's Ibiza collection is awash with motifs of sea creatures, which are pretty underrated in fashion and often traded for animals above the sea. If you're an animal lover, wear this tote loud and proud on your next vacation to remind everyone that yes, marine animals can be just as adorable as cats and dogs. Accessorize with one of the many octopus and whale charms from the collection for maximum effect. The Loewe Paula's Ibiza collection is now available in Loewe stores.
