Today’s post is part of my ongoing partnership with Bombinate. All styling is my own!
In this day and age there are an immense amount of products thrown at you left and right. Consumers are overwhelmed by choices with little to differentiate between new brands and styles. There are so many companies doing the same thing time and time again that it’s refreshing to see a new community breaking the mold. Consumers are becoming more and more educated in the products they buy—looking for brands that have a unique story and who care deeply about their product offerings. Bombinate seeks to unite these brands with a like-minded audience. They continue to curate a unique collection of makers that all share the same commitment to quality and design—making it easy to discover new and interesting pieces.
Earlier this year, I partnered with Bombinate to help introduce the launch of a few limited edition capsule products including The Île De La Cité Sneakers and Habanera Sunglasses. Owners Massimiliano Gritti and Elliott Aeschlimann have continued to search tirelessly for new brands to add to their growing community. They have now doubled the size of their e-commerce platform with an alliance of over 100 brands. Along with their growth comes a launch of a brand new website to help shed light on these companies just in time for Good Friday—or what they call ‘Well-Made’ Friday.
To coincide with the launch, I’ve styled one of their latest limited editions, the El Andalus Navy Mick Duffle Bag made in collaboration with La Portegna. This weekender is handcrafted by artisans in Spain to embody the lifestyle, traditions, and values of their culture. Its rich heritage tells a magical story sharing La Portegna’s Iberian roots and passion for authenticity in every stitch. El Andalus marries a simplistic design with elegance and versatility. Made of stone-washed, hand-woven canvas and vegetable tanned leather—it’s extremely lightweight and highly practical for your weekend escapades. For those who like to travel often or just an occasional holiday away, this is a bag fit to fill full of stories and memories.
Whether it’s a treat for yourself or a Holiday gift for the travel companion in your life, pre-order El Andalus now to save on the launch price and receive by December 16–20!
I’ll be styling several more Limited Edition launches in the upcoming weeks. Browse all of the products here to stay in the loop with the latest anticipated releases.
Thanks to Bombinate for sponsoring this post and providing me with the El Andalus Duffle Bag!
