Its story

Not too long ago, I attended a conference for women entrepreneurs, linked to an all-women business network I belong to, called “Bouge Ta Boîte”.
Numerous inspiring workshops later, when it came time to leave, we were gifted a “My Little Box”, a box filled with products from a partner brand, and mine (as there were different ones) was themed “Icons” and contained a neck scarf that inspired me right away.

I combined it with some very supple white fake leather I’d reclaimed from another maker and a light sage shiny poplin. Its playfulness and softness, along with the symbol it wanted to convey (that of a free, audacious woman) resonated with my aesthetics and I knew I would make some really cool pieces with it.
One of these is this Pouch with its big bow on the front. Flat but of a comfortable size, both stylish and fun, it can follow you all day in a bigger bag or all evening as a standalone hand clutch.
The other is the “Sérénade” Clutch Wallet.

Charlotte’s baby wrap

After ordering a bag from stock, Charlotte realized it would be too small. I offered to make her a custom, larger version, and she sent me her baby wrap to transform.
