Fresh Accessories for SS 2021
As we emerge from winter, designers are focusing on texture for spring. We’re loving how a few key accessories can be used to enhance monochromatic looks or act as pop. We’re seeing an emphasis on quality materials and handcrafted construction to build unique patterns into each piece. If you’re looking to take your staples from classic to chic to sporty all in the course of a weekend, accessories are the name of the game.
We chose the drawstring style pouch bag featured in look 3 from Ulla Johnson’s Spring 2021 runway presentation.
Leather Classics
Quality leather accent pieces are the definition of timeless. It is a long lasting material that gains character through use. Ulla Johnson’s reinterpretation of a bucket bag shines next to spring florals or linen.

Parisian Chic
When we think of springtime Paris fashion, the first thing that comes to mind is Jane Birkin’s iconic basket bag. We love how a woven texture adds dimension but wanted a smaller, more portable option.
Our modern version is a versatile cross-body bag from Ulla Johnson. The size is perfect for everyday but chic enough for all our needs. The brass hardware and camel accents make us say “oui oui".

Sporty Staples
As summer approaches, we’re going to be doing as much outdoor activity as possible. From the pool to yoga to brunch and back again. Our textured bags from Tissa Fontaneda will be your best friend. These handcrafted bags are iconic, to say the least. The velvety soft nappa bubble lambskin comes in a range of fun colors and the detachable cotton woven strap has a contrasting geometric herringbone pattern. Together, these bags add texture, pattern and color in one swoop for that extra pop you need. Pair with square-toe Kennel & Schmenger leather slides and you’re off.
Black woven leather accents go with everything from yoga pants to tuxedos.
