“Gingham Afternoon Collection” is a collaboration with South African illustrator Katherine Horn. The idea bloomed while we were sitting by the canal at St. John’s College on a warm, sunny day. We wanted to share the feeling of that summer in Cambridge - sunlit picnics, gingham blankets, and the nostalgia of handwritten postcards. The frilled border around the flowers mimics the look of a postage stamp, adding a unique and feminine touch. The bag closes with an easy snap button, so you don’t need to fiddle with zippers! It’s perfectly sized to carry the little things you need every day - your wallet, phone, and favorite pair of sunglasses

Marigolds bring back bittersweet memories of my childhood in Canada, when my teacher would give us marigolds each Mother’s Day to take home. I didn’t know the flower’s name then, but I’ll always remember how big my mom’s smile was when I gave it to her. Now, marigolds remind me of innocence and the playful years I miss.
