The Flora, Midnight Lavender

Your purse was designed to be functional, fashionable, and flower-friendly. Throughout the purse you'll find a number of pockets and features that are important for ladies needing a purse that can be dressed down or dressed up no matter the occasion. As you pick up your purse for the first time, you'll notice a sunglasses zippered pocket in the top flap, a protective cell phone pocket on the reverse of the purse next to your hip/side, as well as numerous pockets within the main body of the purse that can store all of your essentials.And of course, the purse is flower-friendly. Your purse has a main center pocket that is fully smell-proof and is sealed by an airtight zipper, along with the takeaway pouch that is also smell-proof. See the FAQs below for more info on what makes the pocket and pouch 'smell-proof' and what to expect. The primary goal of the purse is to provide you with a bag that is fashionable and functional, but allows you to be discreet within any of the circles you move, knowing that your life is your own and this purse will keep it that way.

The primary material of the purse is nylon, noting that the smell-proof pockets use a different material (see FAQs below), which we chose for the first version of the purse due to its versatility and ease of cleaning. We weren't sure what the purse would be used for in its entirety, so we went with a material that looks great but is durable and easy to clean regardless of what goes into the purse. We will likely work with different materials in the future as we learn more about how the purse is being used and what our friends (you) would like to see us create next.

A few years ago, a new fabric using a charcoal-activated fiber lining appeared in various products, specifically what you might call stash boxes for storing bouquets and related items. Charcoal has long been used to filter smells, capturing odor within its structure to safely subdue scents. This is the same fabric we use in the main inner pocket of the purse, lining the entire pocket with the material as a barrier to odor escaping from the purse. We also added an airtight zipper that further seals the pocket and its contents, creating a truly 'smell-proof' pocket that can hold even the most fragrant of flowers without anyone being the wiser. Not to mention, it captures other smells too so you can use the main pocket to hold anything you'd like to keep to yourself.We also lined the entire takeaway pouch with the charcoal-activated fiber lining, giving you an easy on-the-go option to store smaller items, stinky or not. We find the pouch to be highly useful when we need something easy to carry our essentials, but don't want to take the whole purse on the gardening adventure of the day.
