Luxurious Faux Fur and Repurposed Leather Bags from Yana

39 sec read

We didn’t need Sharon Osbourne or Twiggy to tell us that using fur in fashion is a no no. But it’s often hard to find alternatives that offer the same level of luxury. Yana is one of those rare companies which offers animal-friendly accessories without skimping on the opulence.

The New York City label uses repurposed exotics and leathers and lush faux fur to craft its range of handbags and clutches. The covetable designs are completed with 14k gold plated hardware.

If you’re skeptical that a faux fur bag could be just as luxurious as the real thing, feast your eyes on the aptly named Sexy All the Time Faux Fur Belt Bag. I’ve never been attracted to a belt bag, but this one has me drooling!

Yana is also one of those socially responsible brands which supports charities all the time, not just in a crisis. Customers can choose to donate a portion of sales to either The American Cancer Society or Harlem-based youth support charity The Brotherhood/Sister Sol.

Yana bags are available through the designer’s online store and at Kaight NYC.
