Nelle
I have Carina to thank for pointing me towards Nelle’s line of bags. That first one with its chevron detailing? Yowza. (Wait, is chevron over yet? I hope not.)

The Rolston Bag
Loving the Rolston Bag from SHELTER. The canvas laptop/backpack paired with the bright, bold detailing and perfectly organized interior are all a perfect match.

The Perfect Beach Bag
This just might be the best beach bag I’ve ever seen. Leave it to Angela Adams, Sea Bags, and J. Crew to collaborate on this piece of colorblocking perfection.

Caitlin Hinshelnood
Hand-dyed cotton animal purses from Caitlin Hinshelnood showcase beautiful sketches of animals. And it’s sort of a two for one, because each purse is dyed a different color with a different set of animals on either side. I like these lots. (via Creature Comforts)

Go On, Make One
I’m always messing around with one project or another, but in the past few months I’ve been gung ho on DIY. I don’t know whether I’m just noticing the great projects out there more, or maybe following some new blogs that are chock full of ideas and inspiration. And you know what? I don’t care which it is because I’m feeling more creative than ever. I’ve already started a few of the projects below and thought you might like to take a shot at them as well.

wander
The handmade leather bags and accessories from wander are feeding my love for the heritage movement. There’s just something so appealing about a simple, clean product that is well made and durable. I’m definitely feeling that laptop case up top. (via A Merry Mishap)
