What I love most about Fly is highlighting amazing talent, products, fashion, art, and other goodies I come across in my day-to-day. Everything I share here is something I would purchase, or just a beautiful thing I feel you would love and enjoy as well. These gorgeous hand-crafted bags from A A K S are no different.
Over the summer I was peeking around IG and stumbled upon videos and photos of some A A K S bags in progress. I love woven raffia bags (the ones I collect are also known as kiondo bags) but had never seen them being made. Watching the videos of these lovely designs come to life instantly stopped me in my tracks.
The A A K S website just launched on November 3rd, yesterday, and I can't stop drooling over the entire collection. My favorite, though, is the Palma (pictured top left). It takes the look and feel of a basic kiondo but changes the scale and shape to make a lovely cross-body bag.
Akosua, the mind behind the brand, has an incredible eye, and I love the simple touches she incorporated into the photo styling. Beautiful!
What about you? Anything beautiful catching your eye lately?
