Do you consider yourself a handbag addict? Or maybe a handbag aficionado? Have you heard of the independent label called Bagslag? Bagslag was created in 2003 by clothing and accessories designer, Lee Sylvester. She creates cute and quirky bags designed for “women who want something different”. If you’re a shameless handbag addict, these bags might be just be perfect for you!
One of the bags from the Bagslag collection is called the Iris Messenger Bag ($78 USD). The design of this leather messenger bag is very edgy. It rectangular in shape, measuring a generous 15″ high by 11″ wide and features a diagonal zipper design all around the bag. The zipper aids to fully open the bag to fit whatever you need. There’s an adjustable leather strap for easy carrying. Inside it’s lined in hot pink taffeta and features a zip pocket for your gadgets and other necessities.
Do you like the Iris bag? There are a few more quirky bags available on the Bagslag website. Here’s a little trivia for you. According to the (infamous) Urban Dictionary, the term bag slag describes a woman who will fight to the death for a handbag made from exotic animal skin. Not exactly the same thing as the brand but it’s close.
