California Made Designs "Your Essential Nonessentials"
A Second-life Denims Design Studio featuring "one of a kind" bags and accessories crafted by hand from pre-loved jeans.
Source materials are chosen with discretion and an eye for quality....
Sourced pre-loved jeans are carefully shopped for quality and with elevated passion for cotton and denim. Experience with and knowledge of textiles are a must. Even the straps are also soft yet strong. Supple and soft is a must for a luxurious yet casual experience.
About the Designer
— Lainey B, designer & founder
Hello! My name is Lainey, and designing is one of my passions. I strive for a brand that inspires novelty, fun and luxury. My background in an unlikely pair of professional careers, data engineering and fashion design. I studied at FIDM, Los Angeles and then finished a bachelor's degree in fashion design at SFSU. I also have a dressmaking/tailoring certificate. Now retired, I have developed a collection of handbags & accessories crafted by hand that I hope you will love as much as I do.
