perfect pouches
we met the awesome folks of BAGGU at capsule last week, and fell in love with their simple patterns and shapes. and how cute is that elephant bag? there were so many great designers at the show - some new discoveries included the statement making jewelry of brook & lynn, pretty pretty scarves by le.sens, and adorable clothes by our sweet and talented neighbors polaromo.
