Its story
“Be Happy” is one of the two prototypes of my new home-made “Bucket” bag pattern.
This chic and joyful version speaks of happiness and confidence: the strong message “Happy” brings a touch of positivity and good mood, while the ostrich-patterned faux leather adds interesting texture and depth.
I wanted a bucket bag because it's a very versatile format that suits both casual occasions like outings with friends and more sophisticated romantic dates.
So, I chose to create my own pattern, and as often happens, inspiration strikes at the most unexpected moments...
I was drawn to the bag of a referee at a post-basketball game dinner of my husband. I examined it closely (but discreetly from a distance) to pick the details I liked the most, and then I made sketches until I got a result that satisfied me.
I chose to make two prototypes for the two versions that spoke to me the most. For this, I used a cushion cover, even though I wasn't very comfortable with its pink color, but after all, it's good to step out of one's comfort zone. To add a touch of refinement, I paired it with a neutral color and chose two different materials: a more sophisticated 'ostrich' patterned faux leather purchased from a seamstress, and more “relaxed” high-fashion denim that I've been using in small pieces for the past two years.
Thus, the home-made “Seau Tease” pattern was born, a small cylindrical bag that is both charming and distinguished.
