Today I am carrying one of my favourite bags. I like that it is very retro looking with the big metal rings. I also like that it fits so much stuff.
At first glance, you would think this bag says a lot about me and my values. It is by a Canandian company called Matt & Nat who only make products that are completely animal-free. When I first saw this bag I thought it was leather. In fact, it almost put me off it when I found it was a vegan bag. Unlike the folks at Matt & Nat, I like good, old fashioned leather products. However, the design of this bag was so perfect, so lovely, I bought it anyway, and I haven't been disappointed.
It's also quite fun when others see the bag and think I must be a vegan. Apparently, Matt & Nat have quite a cult following in the UK. Sometimes I tell them I just love the bag and am a complete carnivore. Other times I let them think I am terribly right on.
So, while I don't necessarily share the values that my bag projects, I still absolutely love the bag. (and so do my kittens, they've been gnawing away at one of the straps). I guess I've been a bit of a fashion victim with this one, but I don't care. It's totally fabulous. (And very big)
