Scaramanga Vintage Leather Backpack!


I have a weakness for leather. Especially the handcrafted, vintage variety. I have several Moroccan leather bags and a few from Peru and Bolivia, but I just can't get enough. I was recently introduced to Scaramanga, one of the coolest brands who handcraft leather bags and supply vintage furniture. I know a lot of bloggers rave about Grafea, but these guys are more my style. I like to support smaller companies with a good backstory who stock something a little more boho. Check out this beaut...

Leather backpack: c/o Scaramanga - Trousers: F&F - Hat: Miss Selfridge - Necklace: Oasis
My large boho leather backpack comes in a slightly smaller size but for me, this has just the right amount space! I will 100% take this to this year's Glastonbury festival if the weather forecast is good as I'll certainly be able to fit all my necessities in here. Scaramanga are also due to bring out some slightly more luxe bags this month, which I'm really excited about.
As for the rest of my look, highwaisted trousers and crop tops are my new uniform. I waited about 6 months for these tribal palazzo pants to come in stock after spotting them at the F&F SS15 press day! They did tweak them a bit by changing the fabric (why do companies do that!?) but I still love them.
You may or may not have already know, but we were recently featured by Popsugar as one of the best UK fashion blogs! They only listed 25 fashion blogs so we were extremely honoured to be included at #17, and if you take a peek, we're up there with some of the UK's best style bloggers out there! WAH. Apparently we're 'heavy on the boho glamour'. Well we do try...
In other news, I tried on my wedding dress at the weekend. I can't even. I adore it! I was swanning around the boutique in it for a good hour. The veil IS heavy on the boho glamour. I still need to work out how to also get flowers in my hair but it will happen.
Do you like vintage leather? Are you a fan of bohemian style?

T - Looking forward to being a *slightly* hippie bride!
