I’m going crazy these days over all things astro. Astronauts (way to go, Space Shuttle Discovery!) and Astroturf (think football players in those great tight uniforms, mmm…) top the list, to which I can now add Astrosatchel. Designed in Vancouver, B.C., by Janna Hurtzig, these ultra colorful and eye-catching bags feature images with themes such as: botanical, pop art, edible, tattoo/retro, and rock+roll. They’re fun and youthful without being silly or cartoon-like, and can alternately play up a casual outfit or act as a quirky accessory to something more proper. And what’s more, they’re made from naugahyde vinyl instead of leather, and so are suitable for vegan fashionistas…how often can you say that?
They have a line of clothing coming out this fall, but in the meantime, check out their goodies at astrosatchel.com. Also available at veganmart.com and in select stores across Canada and the US.
