In early 2001, fashion stylist Laura Dotolo just couldn't find the right bag. They seemed less about a woman’s needs and more about a designer’s image… giant logos, garish bling, signature patterns. What about a woman’s personal style? Does being chic mean giving up tasteful, simple and elegant design? Drawing on her classic New England sensibility and inherited Italian aesthetic, Laura created a line of bags with a clean, classic and utilitarian style. According to Laura, “We take functional ideas and make them our own -- an envelope, a mail pouch, a saddlebag and so on. Our designs will outlast any trend or fad. I like to think they’re something women will use for a lifetime." Check out some of the videos she's made for Clutch Bags as well as the website to purchase your own!
