The good ole reliable,iconic and sturdy key pouch.The key pouch is a practical accessory that carries coins, cards, folded bills and any small item you can carry. That explains the “pouch” part – the “key” part comes from being about to clip your keys to the “D” ring.

The origin of the word tote is “to carry” with roots dating back to the 17th century. In the West African language, Kikonho, the word “tota” means to “pick up”. In Kimbundu, the word “tuta” means “carry;load” and in Swahili “tuta” means “pick up,carry”. Did you know that the first tote bags were originally worn around the waist? Back in the day, if your tote was embellished or embroidered, it was a status symbol of wealth. In 1940, LL Bean created their first tote bag to carry Ice and Wood. This practical canvas bag was made to last – it’s now known as a boat bag (because of its broad shape). In the 1960s, Bonnie Cashin started a tote collection called Cashin Carry tote bag which is now known as Coach. Her collection was spacious, colorful, beautiful, modern and made […]
Last weekend was the Screen Actors Guild Awards. I’m not going to lie. I watched mainly to see the fashion and to be inspired. Anyone else watch just to see what everyone wore? I truly wasn’t disappointed that everyone dressed to impress. These are my top picks and some trends I noticed for spring. Silver Metallic Something we saw all over the SAG Awards was beautiful silver metallic dresses and makeup. I noticed all the celebrities were rocking silver jewellery. I think we will be seeing a trend of more silver accessories and handbags this spring – gold is so winter/fall anyways (kidding, currently wearing a gold necklace). Crystal Embellishment Crystal embellishments add that dressed up glamour to any look. Embellishment on a simple black dress gives it that extra edge and va va voom. The same goes with an […]

Sarah Coleman, a Manhattan-born designer, has turned Louis Vuitton bags into folding chairs. Huh? – we want one! In July 2018, Coleman began reupholstering a vintage armchair using a deconstructed broken Louis Vuitton suitcase which belonged to her father. Her designs have gained mass popularity – she now has a full-blown website where her work is readily available for purchase. Coleman stated in the Robb Report: “My work came about in a very organic way. I went for it after upholstering my own chair using an LV luggage piece I had but was not using because of a broken zipper. I always have my eyes open for new pieces that I can create or materials to repurpose in a new way from how they are usually seen,” Her inspiration for her work came from walking downtown and seeing a small […]

How to Become a Luxury Fashion Influencer! Want to get signed by luxury fashion brands as an influencer? However, it seems too hard or even impossible to ever get there?

Fast Fashion vs Luxury Fashion Influencers who choose to work with many fast fashion brands such as Fashion Nova, Pretty Little Things, or Shein, reach a specific audience that is looking for that content. This target audience is typically not the luxury fashion industry. Though this is not a problem if your targeted audience is that, just know that this will impact who you get signed by, as other lower end or fast fashion clothing companies will be attracted to endorsing you as well. Also for most influencers […]
