If you’re anything like us, then November is the time of year where your virtual shopping carts are full of gourmand fragrances, velvety pillows and blankets, and metallic home decor (there’s a set of brass bookends that has our name on it!). That’s right: Cozy season has entered the chat.
“Getting closer to the end of the year, November is a good time to take a moment to reconnect with ourselves at home and also to prepare the Holiday home decorations,” says designer Joanne Wong, who was inspired by all things beautiful and cozy when creating November 2023 Glam Bag.
Joanne Wong is an LA-based senior designer in fashion and accessories.
No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. There are two different color variations of November’s Glam Bag. Whether you receive the hot pink Glam Bag or its electric purple sister, there’s a lot to be thankful for. “I wanted to bring the cozy home decor trends into our November Glam Bag,” says Wong. “The bags give a sense of comfort with a soft touch with an ultra soft velvet material that’s inspired by velvet pillows and faux fur throws. And using the cheerful colors of pink and purple made them more festive for the holiday season.”
The quilted pattern just adds to the cozy vibe—but we’re even more obsessed with the production. “If you look closely at the material, the diamond quilt pattern on the velvet is actually a debossed texture on the fabric and not stitching,” explains Wong. “The debossed quilting is a new technique that we tried to use less trim material on the bag.” Where we can, we’ll always move to be more sustainable without compromising the Glam Bag designs we know you’ll love.
Both bags are finished with a trendy gold zipper and faux leather wristlet strap, which we’ll be utilizing with all our holiday party looks.
