Bag Lust

I’ve had this book marked for a week or so, and today I just had to check it again and finally come out and admit it – I have bag lust! Doesn’t help that the seller was featured on a local show on cable – Shop Talk.

I don’t really travel that much but I love big bags and this is even more appealing because there’s that outside pocket perfect for a camera. And it’s unisex too! If I heard the business owner/designer correctly, this is made from wool and leather. Locally made. And the inside looks delish too!

The bag is called Venus and it’s a bucket bag made of canvas and synthetic leather. This one’s by another small local business, Sinude. I just discovered her today via the same show and I already love her. I am eyeing this all-leather (locally sourced) beauty too:

 

 

 

If you’re out looking for gifts for a teenage girl or a grown woman, checkout the bags from these two local sellers.  As for me, well, I went through March without any major shopping extravaganza so maybe I can give myself a gift of a new bag this April. Hmm…
