We haven't had a crush on a boy this strong since the 7th grade. Get ready to fall head over heels for BOYY handbags...
BOYY accessories, the partnered creation of designers Jesse Dorsey and Wannasiri Kongman, was born from a "sense of urgency and no holds barred attitude fueled the drive of the collection." Aiming to create beauty and luxury out of friction, the two have brought a slew of new styles to the market that have been dancing through our heads for days.
Constructed of plush, naturally tanned and dyed, Italian nappa lambskin leather, each bag is braced and adorned with custom hardware and chains. Detail is key: sleek, silk-blend lining, soft, hand-tooled leather and incomparably-crafted Italian zippers augment the collection's inherent allure. We've already added the Lucien Limited bags in python to our wishlist here at StyledOn and are certain you will too.
BOYY is now available in the states at Bloomingdales, Henri Bendel and Scoop, Liberty in London, Lane Crawford in Hong Kong, Takashimiya and Aloha Rag in Japan, Holt Renfrew in Canada and beyond. And unlike most boys, these guys are available to grab online as well.
