I am always inspired by women. Recently, I have been asking women what colour bag they would choose to wear every day – as, ultimately, it's my goal to have my customers wear my bags everyday. I narrowed the options down to a few natural colours, from black to light tan. I’m also inspired by emotional events. This year I lost my beloved grandmother. She was an extraordinary woman who was smart through her career as a chemical scientist, and she was super-smart in her wardrobe preferences. She would always have a little pop of colour to her neutral toned clothing.
