New

Due to a lack of a smaller handbag which is easy to use and carry through the clubs of Berlin, I decided to design and make one myself. I used the same treated leather as in my previous project, the leather tote, but this time sewing the body of the bag with machine and rest by hand.

The bag features include an elongated flap, simple button clasp closing mechanism, and a double strap with rustic metal d-rings to attach it to the bag. Though this project demanded good nerves and patience (not generally virtues of mine), I am very pleased with the outcome. In action pictures to follow soon.

Leather handbag: Selfmade

New in my wardrobe: A sculpture-like Rick Owens leather jacket. It took me four years of lusting to actually pull the trigger and now I could not be happier. As if it was tailor made to fit my body, I’m enchanted by its material, color, seam work and shape. Is it wrong to love an inanimate object? I surely hope not because this one is a keeper. For years to come.

My obsession for Guidi boots is undeniable: With the beautiful craftsmanship, perfect fit and rough material choices, what’s not to love? In order to get some rest from the high heels of my previous pair, I just had to get my hands (or feet more like it) on these back zip reverse leather ones. I had actually been eyeing on the exact same pair here in Berlin, and was therefore pleasantly surprised when these popped up in my size on ebay with a much more agreeable price tag. Seems like fate to me!
