I just joined the forum this evening hoping to see a thread with this topic! Don't get me wrong, I love fashion and have an infinative addiction when it comes to shoes and handbags, but am frustrated by a couple things: excessive cost and brand name flashing. I won't buy Chanel, Gucci, or even my love, Jimmy Choo for handbags because I just refuse to be a walking advertisment! I've been searching for the perfect clutch and tote for what feels like..well entirely too long, to find what I want and it's just not happening.
So, (not to keep rambling on) after researching some of the not as well known designers that I admire for their entrepreneur-like feel and great style, that I could do this too-- why not!
I found a great site: http://www.brettunsvillage.com
They have a wide range of different leathers as well as all the tool to make a handbag with! They are very helpful and are willing to send samples in the mail so you know what you are getting.
Hope this site might be of some help!
