Bag worth the brag : Homegrown edition

I hope you guys are doing well and safe. While the pandemic rages on and our lives made into an unpredictable roller coaster, we can offer a slimmer of hope to small businesses amidst tough times that are still operating but finding it difficult to survive. By buying local not only will we be supporting businesses owned by people in our communities, but it is also sustainable. My Instagram feed is filled with homegrown brands which design some beautiful bags that are hard to pass on.


The relationship that a woman has with her handbag is as old as time. I’ve often heard women say they feel “naked” without their handbag, figuratively speaking of course. With changing times, the everyday essentials that go in a handbag also need to be updated; now adding in hand sanitisers and spare masks. So here are a few homegrown, sustainable and locally-owned brands that make some amazing handbags, that can fit all your everyday necessities while also being fashionable.
