A Little About Ignes Handbags
IGNES Handbags is a range of accessories from Uruguay, founded by sister and brother team – Maria and Ignacio Estrada.
The brand is best known for its custom-made service, which gives you the chance to create your very own personalized handbag.
Your handbag will be crafted individually with the finest materials. The leathers are handpicked by the IGNES co-founders with attention to detail, quality and individuality.
Before creating IGNES Maria was in the London art world while her brother Ignacio was in Uruguay, their home country, having returned after working in finance in New York.
The desire to dream big and a strong commitment to their country gave way to the fusion of cosmopolitan style with unique, quality-led South American leathers, and a social responsibility edge, creating the IGNES brand.
Registration for this giveaway closes on Monday October 5th at 12:00 AM (CST). The winner will be randomly selected and announced in our next round of newsletters along with information to our next great giveaway. Please note, you must be living within the United States to qualify for this giveaway.

LONDON SPRING 2010
This season London has been busier than most due to their 25 Anniversary of Fashion week …between that and being the home of Central St. Martins, London was jammed with shows –new designers and old standards.
London has always been an incubator of fashion ideas and trends ie; TWIGGY, BIBA , SWINGING 60’S, the BEATLES,ALEXANDER McQUEEN and so much more ……this season was no exception.
What I found so exciting was the use of prints, colors,and innovation from many of the young designers.
Of particular note were the collections of LUELLA, PRINGLE, AQUASCUTUM,ERDEM and MARY KATRANTZOU…….keeping in mind that these collections had wonderful moments that will probably show up in seasons to come …but within other designer collections and therein lies the influence of LONDON.
My absolute favorite is ERDEM for the exquisite details , intricate executions and the use of pattern and color—-as always I suggest you have a look for yourself a www.style.com .
