Latico purses had an humble beginning when Paul Schreiber was fresh out of college. Paul started selling leather goods out of his car trunk going store to store in New York City. His basic leather Latico purses were in high demand in the boutiques of Greenwich Village. Members of the Grateful Dead soon became fans of his natural leather bags and Latico Leather began to grow.

As the story goes, Paul met Lainie and beautiful Latico purses were born. Lainie’s New York fashion background and an eye for European trends launched Latico’s famous seasonal trends and colors. Details such as unique artisan linings, unique leather treatments, and functional interior organization have become Latico purse signature features.

Latico purses are beautiful but affordable luxury. Whatever their taste, the classic craftsmanship of a Latico purse makes them a must have for every woman.

Mission: to design a colorful, fresh alternative to the plastic baggie.



“Our happiest moments are spent outdoors. Rivers, lakes, meadows, forests, mountains, and oceans inspire us to take care of the places we love. Living sustainably is not just about big technological or scientific innovations. It’s about the little things, too. It can be as simple and easy as changing wasteful habits and using better products. After a lot of thought and reflection on our own lives, we think we have designed a smart alternative to the plastic baggie.”

Hard as it may seem to believe, the familiar and frequently used zippered plastic baggie has not been improved in 40 years. Disposable plastic may have seemed like a great idea in 1964, but our standards have changed. Today, we look for products that are healthy for us and healthy for our planet, particularly things we use on a daily basis like disposable plastic baggies. Although it looks like a little bag, reusable LunchSkins can make a big difference!

Whether you care about our environment, saving money, eating healthy, or looking stylish, LunchSkins are the answer to your plastic baggie blues -- they offer an environmental benefit (reduce landfill waste), a practical benefit (they can be used hundreds of times and save you money over the long run), and a healthy choice (food tastes better in a pastry bag).

In just one year, our LunchSkins customers have taken a big bite out of landfill and ocean waste. With your purchase and use of LunchSkins, more than 12 million plastic baggies have been saved from the landfill.

Mention this post and receive 10% off your Lunchskins purchase at Soel! Perfect for back to school.  :)

Hobo was founded in 1991 by Toni Ray in Annapolis, Maryland on her dining room table.

Toni had been creating unique accessories for Georgetown Leather Design in Washington, DC., the “in” place for the hippie crowd to buy cool leather goods during the 60’s and 70’s. In those days, the bags were made by hand in the basement of the shop.

Then in 1991, she cashed in her life-savings, bought a beat-up van and headed up to New York to sell the first ‘Hobo’ collection.

Her philosophy for Hobo; women’s accessories should be both stylish and practical. Toni believed that quality and ‘cool’ never go out of style.

The Farmers Market every Saturday at the Riverwoods offers some great stuff.  Here is a pancake mix we found today.  Full of over ten grains, is healthy, and unique.  Best part about this pancake mix is the sweet guy selling it.  This bag cost $7.  Try it out!

Splendid shipment this week, such a temptation; soft fabrics, fun colors, and my favorite: stripes.
