New Stuff……

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

Hey everybody, we have a brand new bag!!

This is our new sash tote, it’s super cute and extra practical for those of us who sometimes need a little bit more room for all our stuff. There’s snaps on either side so you can let it out (green one) or cinch it in (blue one) and each tote comes with a removable fabric sash in fun retro print fabric. You can take the sash off for another look, or add your own vintage scarf to make it even more unique! There’s also two inside pockets on this number, and an outside pocket as well. This bag is a big one: 13 by 13 inches, and 4.5 wide, so you can fit you lunch and your work stuff or those big water bottles and magazines for the weekend.
This bag is in the Georgia Straight this week, but some of the info is wrong, sorry for any confusion!

Our sash tote will be for sale online shortly, but for now it’s available at the Vancouver Art Gallery Store, Paper-Ya, Tartooful and Nicholas Randal (Victoria). The price is around $120, and the colours vary from shop to shop like all our bags.

We love our new bag, and hopefully you will too!!

What’s going on……

We are having another little open house again this Saturday, May 12 from 12-4. Tina is coming to visit from Oona Clothing, so you can stock your bag closet and underwear drawer all in one go.

We will also have a small selection of SALE items this time around……. A while back, we had an order go missing enroute to Portland. When it did finally arrived there, the box had been opened and everything was dirty from whatever had happened to it (likely being kicked around a van, from the looks of it). So I’m passing the cleaning and the savings on to you, with this bunch of bags selling for half price. There’s not a ton, about 15 or so bags, so get down to the studio early if you want in on the action. As always, we also have lots of our regularly priced stock of bags, wallets and clothing, no cleaning necessary!! See you!!
