New Fringe Bag from Wayuu Taya

Sunday, November 6, 2011

Last summer, we bought a beautiful Wayuu Taya bag that we carried practically everyday to do random things. It was just the perfect bag that added color and texture to our casual outfits. Now there’s a new bag from the Wayuu Taya Foundation that we’re totally loving. If we didn’t buy the bucket bag last summer we’d totally get this bag:

Wayuu Taya Morroa Bag

Wayuu Taya Morroa Bag

It’s the WAYUU Taya Morroa Bag from Revolve Clothing. The bag is completely handmade in Colombia and features a geometric pattern. Since Wayuu Taya bags are completely handmade, none of the bags are exactly alike. The bag is completely lined, and has a patch pocket inside. The bag has a large wooden bead that serves as closure for the bag’s drawstring, but the main compartment of the bag closes using a velcro. Here’s the bag’s dimension: 13″H x 13″L x 8″D.

Wayuu Taya bags are made by Latin American indigenous women. The Wayuu Taya Foundation runs educational programs for the indigenous women of the Wayuu tribe and a big part of the cost of the bag goes into funding the educational programs and the bag project.

Wayuu Taya bags are also available in Shopbop. The bag retails for $200.

Wednesday, October 19, 2011

LeAnn Rimes headed to lunch at the Coral Tree in Brentwood, California yesterday (October 19) with husband Eddie Cibrian.

LeAnn, who is turning out to be a real fashion plate, looked lovely in her earth tone clothes. The singer had her hair up in a messy bun and finished her look with brown knee-high boots, and a fringe handbag.

LeAnn’s bag is by Cleobella. We found the bag in Shopbop:

Cleobella Onida Fringe Bag

The Cleobella Onida fringe bag is an oversiszed hobo that is made of leather. The front panel of the bag is beaded and the sides of the bag have long fringe. The bag retails for $685. The bag is not cheap but take note, it is handmade in Bali. It is also roomy so you can take the bag with you on grocery runs or when running other errands.
