VF's Closet: Wayuu

 

I'm so excited to share with you my new bag. It's made by the Wayuu tribe Indians in Colombia and the craftsmanship is just amazing (they take about 14 days to make).  My mother-in-law bought it for me last week while vacationing in Colombia and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I blogged about these bags back in 2009 and since then, I've been seeing them pop up all over the place, from Elle Magazine to the J.Crew catalog. The best thing is they help support the indigenous tribe as well.  Oh, also forgot to mention I scored these really cute shorts on sale at Anthropologie for just $19 (originally $70). If you look closely you'll see it has a pear print. Hope you have a great week!
