Fall Fashion: Carpetbags!

Who else is feeling me here? I want one, or several, carpetbags for fall, and have been working away on the patterns. I like them in southwestern (Native American, Mexican) and 80's vintage wallpaper-esque patterns. I love 'em as travel and weekend bags, handbags, and little clutches, too.

That outfit is from last year, but that southwest carpet bag is still radical and keepin' on - except for a strap crisis which saftey pins have sorta been able to handle.





I like these Etsy vintage carpet bags:
