Despite the fact that your university years are the perfect opportunity to really find out who you are and embrace your true self, a lot rides on making a good first impression. Ideally this would involve arriving on a unicorn, but since that’s out of the question you’ll have to get by on your charm and wit. However, it doesn’t hurt to look awesome at the same time, and as everyone knows, a good outfit is nothing without excellent accessories.
One of the downsides of leaving home to further your education is that space is often limited, both in the carrying capacity of your mode of transportation on the way there and in your new home once you arrive. This means that regardless of how extensive your collection of bags may be, you’re only going to be able to take a selection. But fear not! Read the rest of this entry »

But what if your bag gets stolen/breaks under the weight of the additional load? You know full well the blame will be laid firmly at your feet when you’re unable to get back into your house having lost both sets of keys.

Posted in Leather Bags, Uncategorized on 07/11/2011 12:06 am by adminIt is a truth universally acknowledged that the larger the bag, the more it will carry. However, the problems with the majority of large bags are twofold.

Bring the essence of adventure to your living room with a vintage travel trunk
Posted in Uncategorized, Vintage & Retro Furniture on 02/16/2011 04:56 pm by hannahVINTAGE TRAVEL trunks - sometimes called steamer trunks, cabin trunks or wardrobe trunks - are wonderful throwbacks to the halcyon days of travel.
