paint-inspired bag
What a fun, bright little bag!
It’s made by Loverly Ink and is made from this vintage print that reminds me of an painting. There’s pockets abound and nice black handles.
The paint-inspired trend is getting big, and this is a great way to add it to your wardrobe if you don’t want to wear big ol’ painting.
$35

even though it’s sold out: ridiculously big bag

Oh man. I think The Olsen Twins would have a field day with this bag, although it’s sold out.
It’s so huge, I’m pretty sure that I could curl up and sleep in it comfortably. The print is all sorts of crazy too.

ultra exclusive: la.ga bag
I got an e-mail from Stephen over at 66degrees. He let me know that one of their many limited edition designs was a hangbag, made of Tyvek.
They’re made in a women’s prison in Portugal (I’m hoping they get some of the proceeds). The inmates do get skills and the opportunity to earn a living outside of prison. The design is made by Krv Kurva and is the trademark design of the line. It’s shaped like a teardrop and definitely a different silhouette than you usually see.
The images you see on it are from Sarah Parris, and it’s a interpretation …read more

weekender bag

I jsut got back from a long weekend with some old friends. It was great, except for the fact that i forgot my glasses. Sometimes, I forget PJs, or maybe my toothbrush. Then I have to find a Target, Walgreen’s or Rite Aid and spend $5 I could be using for something tasty or pretty.
This weekender from 31 Corn Lane has a cute little checklist so you don’t forget something.
On sale for $15.

felt bag

I have a soft spot for felt, especially industrial felt bags. There is something so cold, yet warm about felt. It’s itchy but cozy at the same time maybe.
Pincorporated is a beautiful shop with lots of things I’d like to own, but this bag is one of my favorites. I like the little cross on it, the red really pops.
Made of industrial felt. $220.
Get it at Pincorporated.

Reconstructed leather is an amazing thing. I have a lot of respect for designers taht can take well-loved leather and form it into something new and modern.
Ashley Watson makes such creations. The Murre Bag is one of her latest creations and it’s amazing. There’s a definite boho slouch to it, but hte overall look is clean and the leather is so pretty!
In brown only. $385
