5 new leathers were launched yesterday, which means there are 6 remaining that I am working hard to get finished and photographed for the store pages. Hopefully they will be ready in time to be launched next weekend, but there are three I want to [...]
I wanted to give you a sneak preview of Sahara, another new leather that will be launched very soon. This is something that was only available in a very limited quantity, but as soon as I saw it I knew it would work so well [...]
