SUSAN NICHOLE ONOFREY
Co-Owner & Head of Design

As long as I can remember, I have adored accessories - shoes, jewelry, handbags - everything. When I was a little girl, I would sketch new shoe designs. As a teen, I designed new jewelry from older pieces. My interests eventually focused on handbags and I was continuously buying new handbags in search of the perfect bag.

When my husband and I began our family, it was important to both of us to raise our children with our conscientious belief system, instilling our values of respect and love of life in all things. As an animal lover and vegetarian, I wanted to adopt a more proactive approach to my actions and choices.

Having such a passion for handbags, I was surprised at my continuous frustration in my endless search for a designer quality, yet animal friendly bag. I realized I needed to fill a void for a handbag with flair, elegance and beauty; without the use of animal products. And so it began.

I initiated my quest to create animal friendly bags that are beautiful, timeless and have the elegance for which I have longed; bags that women will love to carry and feel fabulous doing so.
