In an attempt to make even a small difference in the world, one that is often fraught with conflict, I designed the United Collection, representing people coming together in freedom, harmony, balance and unity. Twenty percent of all proceeds from sales of the United bags will go towards the global humanitarian organization, International Red Cross. With my mission in place, this was certainly a fun project to work on. Photographer Hélène Loire and I spent a beautiful late afternoon photographing the collection, beginning with that which we are all entitled to, freedom.
freedom (n): The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants.
harmony (n): A pleasing combination of elements in a whole.
balance (v): To bring into or maintain in a state of equilibrium.
united (n): The state of being united or joined as a whole.

In addition to donating 20% of United bag sales to International Red Cross, I’m giving away a bag to one of my readers (chosen at random Dec 1st) as an early holiday gift. Just leave a comment below stating which United bag is your favorite, and be sure to join my designing life on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram. Meanwhile, let’s all try to maintain a sense of freedom, harmony, balance and unity.
Balance!!! Love it: Flirty and fun. Though all the bags are stunning, especially on designer and model Kasia Dietz. The United Collection is gorgeous, wearable, and chic. Bien Sur!
My favorite is freedom. It evokes the feeling of flying free through the air, and dreaming of no boundaries. Which is how I dream; both literally and figuratively!
The Freedom bag is my favorite! Not just for what it signifies, but also for what it inspires. And it’s beautiful in blue!
United! (we stand.)
I think my wife would love the harmony bag as a holiday surprise. Then she can take it with us when we stay at our Marais apartment next April!
I love the freedom design- simple and elegant.
