At the beginning of this month I started interning for Fleabags, a NYC based design studio that designs durable bags made from old stock/ re purposed materials. Fleabags is the product of two great friends, Shira Entis & Alex Bell, who share an appreciation for fashion and quality design. The very first "fleabag" was inspired by the two's love for shopping flea markets together, and not having a sturdy tote to encompass all of their great finds in a day. The latest addition to the Fleabag family, is the Salt Bag- newly featured on their updated site, fleabg.com. I have truly enjoyed helping out at Fleabags in the past month, I have learned more than I ever expected to and I've made great friends too. Yesterday I spent finalizing decisions with Shira and Flannery (other intern) on the Fall '10 collection- there is so much to look forward to in the coming seasons. I just can't wait!
Thank you Alex & Shira for taking me on as your newest intern- you gurls are the best!
