Lakeside is my favorite
Please don’t jump . . .
Tonight we stuffed our picnic blanket, extra pairs of shoes, and a basket full of food into the car and headed down for dinner at the lake. Yes, we’re that crazy family of six that goes to the lake for a picnic with coats on. Perfectly normal. As for what bag to bring? Well, that’s serious stuff. For such occasions, I often grab the bag that’s the softest, that molds to the body with lots of extra room to hold last minute things and possibly an extra pair of rubber boots.
It really was no contest.
This zipper briefcase in camel was handmade in Bend, Oregon; the leather is cowhide from Germany and feels like butter. It also came with a surprise: an interior detachable clutch that quickly became home to all loose change and fugitive dark chocolate. I can say that because I know the kids aren’t reading this. The brand is named after owner Anne Scott’s grandmother, Mari Lassa, who left France to come to America at the tender age of 18. Obviously, she was a woman full of passion and guts. Each bag is also a little gutsy, yet effortless and signature in it’s style. Visit www.marilassa.net to see more of her gorgeous handmade bags
