A Business Bag for 2016

What does your business handbag look like? Does one bag do the trick or do you carry a handbag and another bag for your laptop & paperwork?

The Eel Catcher’s Daughter

Today, I’m featuring one of our lovely stockists in Ely, Cambridgeshire (UK).

Two Tone Nicky

Towards the end of last year, I got bored of one colour leathers so I asked my tannery to make some 2 tone leathers for me. The result is a matt black leather with a very bright suede on the reverse side and in order to make this leather into a lovely handbag I designed…
