Second Life

This brown corduroy skirt hung in our customer's closet for a few years she told us. Apparently, it never really fit her quite right, so it generally stayed out of sight and unworn.

It's a lovely, well-made garment with big embroidered flowers in lime green and two shades of pink.


The skirt made the perfect pocket for this custom Veronica bag with lime microsuede and glossy espresso faux leather accents. The best part - the bag is completely one-of-a-kind. (We gave the rest of the skirt back to her.)

Edited to add: Visit this customer's blog here (the June 23rd entry) to read more about this bag and to see her superior pictures.

Oh I love it! My favorite bags that you make are the ones where an old fabric gets a new life!

Thanks, Laura, Ashley and crew for such a great bag! I used this at work today, and while it was a big hit with my lady co-workers, even a male barista commented on how much he liked it.

I may have to have some more items made with the leftover skirt. Matching Luxe clutch, maybe? : )
