Roses for My Zebra

Quick, what’s the first thing you think of when you see this?

For me, it was roses and zebras. I couldn’t make up my mind which to choose, so I chose both. I name this bag Roses for My Zebra.

You can offer a rose not just to ladies. Zebras will do fine, too. The vibrance and passion of the red rose make a fetching contrast to the monochromatic zebra stripes. It's true that opposites attract. Here's a close-up shot of Roses for My Zebra, with the black base at the bottom:

Roses for My Zebra comes with a round cane handle and a velcro clasp:

Lynette

The moment I laid eyes on this bag, I thought of Lynette.

Lynette is perfect for someone who goes for classic pieces which will never be outdated. Her style is simple, yet exudes an air of natural beauty. Hey, nature’s always best.

Lynette has a pleasant net-weave and even the cane handle is elegant.

To make Lynette even better, there's even a zip at the top.

These bags are also my favourites, and I'm sad to see them go. But the buyers sure had good taste! In rememberance of them, here's a tribute to the bags....

Miss Lee's Blushing
For a lady with a kind soul and a heart of gold. The blushing version of Miss Lee.

Jessica
A cheery bag to brighten up a lady called Jessica. (Perfect for a bride-to-be)

Ode to Orange
Oh Orange tote, Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant.

Sold Out!

Wanda the Beached Whale celebrates good sales, thanks to Christmas. I Strangled Gerry!, Miss Lee and Petunia in a Purple Way are now sold out.

Let’s Go, Tina!

Let’s Go, Tina! is a vivacious, spontaneous and on-the-go! character. Like a comfortable old friend, she’s perfect for a day out window-shopping, and chatting over coffee afterwards. Time with Let’s Go, Tina! never fails to brighten a one up.

What’s characteristic about Let’s Go, Tina! is that she comes with furry, bright blue flowers, and equally bright blue trimmings and purse (though not furry).

Are you ready yet? Let’s go, Tina!

Sunrise

I’m always happy to see sunshine and to be out in the sun. (Did you know that a lack of sunshine actually leads to depression? It’s called Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD for short. I kid you not.)

One of my ambitions is to catch the sunrise. (It remains my ambition because I’ve yet to wake up that early!) Sunrise is a tribute to my love for the sun and the sunrise.

A look at the changing colours of Sunrise.

Sunrise comes with a simple leather handle, red – to match its smile.

One of the simple pleasures in life, Sunrise is sure to please.

Petunia in a Purple way

She looks like a cousin of Petunia’s Picnic. For lack of a better name, I name her Petunia in a Purple way. Her charm is her own. I mean, purple with flowers…trust her to come up with it!
