I was recently asked where I get my inspiration when it comes to some of my … hmmm… edgier bags. Fact is, I’ve been dabbling in leather, studs, rivets, fringe, D-rings and O-rings since I started Pip way back in 2008! I have always loved the mix of subtle nuance to bold statements, colours and textures, and playing with innuendo. These bags and accessories are all from 2009-2021 - except the last one, which is currently available online.
I was a grunge q***r teenager in the 1990s and loved music and punks and all things alternative. That has never changed and even though it doesn’t make up the bulk of my current collection inspiration, it will always be present and true to who I am and have been.
One part of being a creative person and entrepreneur is that I get to make whatever I feel like, whenever I feel like it. I don’t play by any rules other than my own authenticity. I love what I do and I feel so lucky I get to call it mine. ❤️🖤❤️
