Every season or two we women look for a handbag to fit all our needs. We want quality materials, good structure, sometimes a designer name and we want something versatile. The IT handbag should have the ability to make you swoon—or maybe that’s just us.
Our fashion philosophy is to be true to yourself. This spring we are approaching shopping with no fear. Remember when you had that one fashion moment where you put something together that was genuine to your personal style? You ignored trends and what people would think? You were fearless, free and you felt cool. We want you to shop that way. To top the shopping cake, it would feel even better if you shopped handmade while supporting those who are less fortunate.
Presenting a few of our handbag picks that we can almost guarantee no one around you will carry.
