A handbag that contains another handbag. For years I have searched for the perfect handbag. Tried all shapes, sizes and combinations, and never been fully satisfied. Until now. With my new Scandinavian styled, clean and sleek, faux leather mates:

Literally a bag-in-a-bag. The point is simple: when on the move, heading to town to run errands, first I only need to carry “one” handbag. The smaller inside the bigger one.

In the big one I place stuff I need to have with me, but don´t necessarily use each time. Things like extra shopping bags (self-made fabric ones), pen and paper, a tiny flashlight, tissues, etc.
In the small one goes the important things: keys, phone, wallet, lipbalm, glucose pastilles for my son´s diabetes, and one shopping bag.

As I gather the necessary bits and pieces, I throw them in to the bigger bag and am free from the fuss of having a gazillion little plastic bags swimming around the trunk! Cool.

This pair of handbags I designed especially to go with my off-day clothes. I call them my “Freedom Collection”, because when wearing them I consider myself “blending in” with the rest of the folk. That way I am free from the judging eye, and can walk around freely without raising any interest or suspicion (which often happens when I wear outfits from my more artistic collections, named and themed after each sabbat). Black & white striped tunic and Living The Dream- shirt are good examples of what I wear when running around with these handbags.

The bags are fully lined with cotton fabric

One with horizontal- and the other with vertical stripes. I used the same fabric, but turned it around to add detail.

Simple snap fasteners keep the treasures in.
