Things are heating up around here—and it’s not just the weather. This month, we’re channeling our B.F.E. (Big Feminine Energy) with a Glam Bag design that will go down in history… Women’s History Month, that is. We spoke to Joanne Wong, the woman behind the design to find out what went into this first-of-its-kind Glam Bag—more on that later. Keep scrolling for your behind-the-scenes glimpse into your March Glam Bag.

“For Women's History Month, our color palette theme was soft and femme with earth tones,” says Glam Bag designer Joanne Wong. She was inspired by elements of nature like gorgeous swirling granite and the stunning shades of raw clays and even fungus. (Sneak peek: You might also find these shades pop up in some Glam Bag makeup this month!) 

Wong took these colors and lent them to abstract liquified marble artwork that was printed over a light textured faux leather on the front of the bag. The back of the Glam Bag features a complementary chestnut brown faux leather, and it’s all completed with pops of color including a maize yellow IPSY printed logo and matching zipper tape, a rose gold zipper, and a light blue lining.

But the true star of this Glam Bag show is the zipper puller. “It is our first time using the oversized beaded zipper puller on our Glam Bag,” says Wong. “The three different color beads are so unique, and we are able to use the tiny white pearl bead at the end to give the puller a nice finish. Using the round soft-matte finish beads and marble-like textured artwork created harmony between all the elements and added to the soft and organic vibes of the bag.”
