Designer Spotlight: Ines Figaredo

Ines Figaredo, a Madrid-born lawyer-turned-handbag designer, has a wild imagination, and it shows.  She uses it, as well as nature, as the inspiration for her eccentric and unique handbags.  They are handmade in Spain using the finest leather and materials.  Ines was “utterly determined to rescue the ancient know how of haute spanish leatherwork and jewelry, the exquisite art of embroidery and the traditional craft skills of sculpture”, according to their website.

But enough talking- the handbags speak for themselves.  Click through after the jump to see some of my absolute favorites.
