I found these bags made by a local (Toronto) designer called Opelle a while back, and have been lusting after them ever since. The leather looks absolutely stunning from the photos, and the hardware is perfect. The price is pretty reasonable too, considering they’re handmade leather bags. I’d rather pay $300 for one of these than $400+ for a similar Coach or Michael Kors design, which are both made en masse in Chinese factories.

I’m definitely in love with these bags. Check out her website: www.opellecreative.com
