Abby Jocson Erin Tote

During one of my daily online (browser window) shopping, I came across a tagged Facebook photo that had 2 large purses - one red and the other turquoise. I was attracted to the red purse, but I thought I already have a lot of red in my closet. Hoping the purse is available in other colors, I quickly searched the purse maker online.

I felt my heart scream like a Twilight fan when I stumbled upon the bag maker's site; Abby Jocson.

Bag designer Abby Jocson, who previously worked for a local retail brand (Bayo), really dreamed to make a name some day. Translating studies into real work, Abby took a few courses in design school and started producing bags with contemporary designs. Her pieces are targeted to today's career women - effeminate yet headstrong.

What I like about her designs is that they are very diverse, catering to each need of a woman in a purse. Abby Jocson made bags good for work, party, play, and travel- she has everything covered.

I got the beige Erin tote- an everyday purse that can fit a LOT of stuff inside. I always bring a lot of things everyday so I really need spacious bags.

The Erin tote is made of fleather, with antique hardware and tassle detail. It looks very simple but it's soooooo chic! I love using it because I can throw anything inside without me worrying that my items will bulge on the sides.
