Cornelia Guest Woven Bag

Cornelia Guest Woven BagAnimal rights activist, actress, and socialite Cornelia Guest is preparing to add handbag designer to her already extensive resume. The American personality will soon launch a line of leather free handbags, wallets, and pet accessories.

Guest said she decided to create the vegan collection so she could design and wear the items she loves, and share these with friends.

Man made leather alternatives often appear a bit tacky, so I’m thrilled to hear Guest’s developed a “beautiful, soft” vegan skin for her accessories collection. There promises to be something for all kinds of animal lovers in the range, from woven day bags and everyday totes to more elegant clutch purses and small wallets.

Guest’s website offers some rather abstract images of the new purses, but I’m impressed with what I can see. The faux leather looks gorgeous, particularly on this woven purse. I only hope the final bags live up to the promise of the photos on the site!

I also hope that Guest’s new foray into fashion comes with the charitable component we’ve seen in her vegan cookies. She donates a portion of the proceeds raised by the snacks to the Humane Society of New York, and I’d love to see her accessories supporting the same charity, or other animal-friendly organizations.

We’ll find out when Cornelia Guest’s vegan accessories hit stores this fall.
