Leather 4 Sided Rectangular Bag in Duo Color / Slow and Steady Wins the Race

I had the great pleasure of meeting the design team behind SSWR and photographing some of their bags. Here are some of my fans.

This oversized 4 sided tote was so much fun to photograph. It so sculptural and fun to fold and play with. If I ever take a trip around the world I think this bag is a worthy companion.

Kraft Carrier Tote Bag in Tan Suede and White Pebble Leather / Slow and Steady Wins the Race

So simple and so clever. The body of this tote bag is made from one panel only, folded in an origami like fashion and stitched together on the bottom and one side. Very lightweight, soft and incredibly sturdy at the same time.

Vintage Python bag circa '80s, made in Italy

I'm completely bewitched by this red python bag. It's like a modernist sculpture with interior secrets. 

It's not everyday that you run into a bag obsessed and creative visionary. Jennifer is all those things, great taste and a barrel of humor to boot.

I will gladly raid her closet for bags anytime. I'm infatuated by her devotion for unusual shapes.

Vintage Croc frame bag, circa 1940s

This bag knocked by socks off! It was such a pleasure to photograph. I took so many making the editing process a challenge.

Vintage croc frame bag, circa '70s

Here's another endlessly photogenic number. This vintage crocodile bag smiled back in every setting. Aside from the well proportioned shape the metal chain handle attachment is so well thought out.  It's rare that a bag looks this great with the handles down.
