"Cogitations" Range / Collection Imaginary The freshness of summer fruit colors, the lightness of wordplay, and the sophistication of nubuck leather. A spacious tote, practical and chic.

Its story

When I saw this set of 3 cushions with their clever, tender, and funny wordplay, I immediately knew I had to create a trio of bags, and the “Cabas” format would be the most suitable.
I even had the exact model in mind, which I had crafted several years ago, with its practical details that make a difference: magnetic flap closure, an exterior zip pocket, and an interior slip pocket.

I also wanted a dressed-up result, so using rescued leather (and upcycled faux leather for one of the versions) for a contrast of colors and textures was an obvious choice, along with golden hardware for a touch of elegance.

A large “tote” bag to accompany you in all circumstances, whether professional or personal.

Common questions

What is the protective pouch included with the bags?

Every bag I create comes with a bespoke protective pouch, made by hand in my studio.

This isn't throwaway packaging — it's a permanent accessory, meant to be used every day to store your bag when you're not using it, protect it from scratches and dust, or keep it safe when travelling.

It's made in organic cotton satin, sewn to the exact dimensions of your piece, with an organic cotton drawstring to close it. It's branded Marie Alhomme.

For wallets, coin purses, and smaller accessories, I wrap the piece in tissue paper produced locally and sustainably (Papeteries de Montségur, Loire), rather than in a pouch.

My package is lost/I haven't received my order… what should I do?

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.
