The Dream Bag

I was reading an article in Harper's Bazaar (US Edition, May 2013) and fell in love with a bag I spotted. It's the fruit of a collaboration between the Muzungu Sisters and Delphine Delafon. These names may sound foreign to some of you. That's because they are. 

The Muzungu Sisters is a hip brand that was created in 2009 by a dynamic duo: Dana Alikhani and Tatiana Santo Domingo (yes, the future Mrs. Casiraghi). Dana, a human rights advocate, wanted to combine fashion with fair labor. Tatiana, the jet setting Colombian beauty, curates the site with her sassy and trendy ideas. 

On the other side of the Atlantic is Delphine Delafon, a Paris-based genius. Her invention? The bucket bag. One model in three different sizes with a choice of three different chains. But each bag is unique, signed and numbered. So combine ethnic materials with French craftsmanship and you have the dream bag.

The only downside? It's $1,250.
