Top 10 Great BAGS ever

The Hermes Birkin Bag,The Birkin has been called the ‘perfect' bag, i.e. once you get one you'll never want another type of bag.Traditionally low in supply and high in demand you have to wait eight months to six-years for one of these.

The Fendi Baguette Bag

The Dior Saddle

What can we say about this other than it's inspired by a horse's saddle, incorporates a stirrup, buckle, bit, rivets, a giant metal ‘D' and various jangly spurs and horsy bits, oh and it's completely revolutionized bag shapes. This kick-started the trend for weighty handbag embellishment and proved particularly popular with fashionable equestrianistas.

Balenciaga 'Lariat'

In 2001, the motorcycle-inspired Lariat roared onto the fashion scene.

                                                       

Louis Vuitton 'Murakami'

Is it art or is it fashion? It's in fact a bag which costs the same as a small car and apart from the handles isn't even made of leather. After Murakami's spring/summer 2003 catwalk debut, the rumour goes phone lines at louis vuitton were jammed with orders.

Chloe 'Paddington'

With designer clothes becoming so accessible and copied, Chloe came up with the idea of creating a limited edition bag that, as well as costing well over the average monthly salary, would make a woman feel part of an exclusive, trendy ‘club'. This particular ‘it bag' with it's distinctive, laughably oversized clunking lock, intriguing doctor's bag shape, whiffy leather and renown rarity, gave instant ‘pop star', or ‘rich Girl' status to the lucky owner .

Marc Jacobs 'Stam'

Mulberry 'Bayswater'

  this season the Bayswater is rolled out in exotic fabrics from shocking pink ostrich (for around £2,000) to sleek bronze mirror metallic for a seasonal look, as well as those gorgeous, very British classic shades  Mulberry is renown for.

YSL 'Muse'The YSL Muse ticks all the boxes of a bonafide ‘it' bag. It's pretty much always sold out. The roomy oval design with it's double zip and big straps is perfectly proportioned and gives the wearer instant class. Launched in 2006 it virtually became an icon overnight and is still popular despite competition from the newly launched, Muse II.

CHANEL CLASSIC FLAP BAG

This chanel Quilted Classic flap bag is the essential Chanel Bag. This is one of the most elegant handbags that has ever been made. 

African Inspired Interior designing

Interior design describes a group of various yet related projects that involve turning an interior space into an effective setting for the range of human activities that are to take place within such defined space.

In the past, Interiors were put together instinctively as a part of the process of building.
The pursuit of effective use of space, user well-being and functional design has contributed to the development of the contemporary interior design profession ,including African inspired interior designing.

 African Inspired Decor.

What exactly is a house with African décor?

African décor can take many different styles, depending on the area of Africa that the style originates. For instance, styles that originate from the Maghreb area of Northern Africa - countries like Morocco and Algeria, blend African influences with more traditional Middle Eastern and Arabic influences, while décor from the southern part of Africa bears some European influences from the days of colonization. East African décor, conceived in countries like Uganda, is particularly popular in Western homes decorated in African style. This style incorporates many tribal influences, such as traditional tribal symbols worked into pieces of art and African masks. Safari Themes are yet another way to incorporate African décor into a home.

No matter where in Africa you draw your design inspiration, African design style is all about mixing natural elements with bright, vibrant colors . Red, yellow, and black are the colors that come to most people's minds first when they think of African design, but bright colors of any kind, including blues, greens, and purple are right at home in an African themed room as well.

Notes From Lola Adewole - Creative Director FFL

I belong to the school of thought which believes, that we all can find fulfillment and  success, by pursuing our passion, but we only have to take the  very first step, and even when or if there are setbacks, we should always pick ourseves up , dust off the dirt, and try again.
I found my passion, and with this i can reach out to people, by making them look good when they adorn my designs. It puts a smile on my face and on their faces too. I took the first step, and i am now oncourse. 
I love what i do, I love fashion designing,  and I also love humanity. What better way to combine  the things I love.
I love my FFL.
