The Outback bag by Bolingo Bags is the latest exotic skin bag to catch my attention. As you all know, exotics are big this fall and the Outback is one of our top picks for an exotic bag this season. Crafted from ostrich and napa leather and accented with a crocodile snap closure which adds an interesting design to an otherwise classic shoulder bag. The tassels on the sides add a bit of fun to this elegant bag. The Outback, as well as the rest of the Bolingo Bags, is a one of a kind bag and never mass produced.
Bolingo Bags was born in 2008 by former mortgage banker, Susan Todd. After the success of selling her business she combined her business skills with her love for handbags. Bolingo means love in the Bantu language and Susan uses the word to "represent the love and devotion to style, color, texture, and craftwork that is built into every bag created." All of the bags are crafted by fair trade craftsmen in South Africa. Many of the bags are made from ostrich and used in a socially conscious way, meaning all parts of the animal is used. Bolingo Bags are highly sought after and never reproduced. When you wear a Bolingo Bag you are wearing a one of a kind creation that will last a lifetime.
