Classic Luggage

Camera case – TBD

If you haven’t already noticed, I’ve been on a bit of an accessories binge lately. While working on a cut-and-paste wardrobe post over the weekend, I had the pleasure of stumbling across this fantastic Washington DC leather goods shop. Desire for classic handmade leather goods has really grown in the past few years and I’m certainly not immune to this growing interest either. Some of you have probably also noticed the camera-bag-as-handbag trend that’s begun to make an appearance on ye olde street style blogs. This is a trend I actually like! Of course, being a relatively practical person, the leather camera bags that are popping up all over are a bit too small for my daily needs. I much prefer the traditional boxy camera case. Plus, we’ve got quite a few film SLRs at home (four!) that we’ve been aching to use again and the case above would be perfect for any of them, and for toting around my lip balm, wallet, checkbook, keys, etc. when I’m not with camera.

Well, anyways I came across DC based Classic Luggage this weekend and was most impressed by their selection of gorgeous Swaine Adeney leather goods items. I’d love to swap out the giant heavy bags I’m usually lugging around for their camera case or the military wet pack. There’s no price yet for the camera case-they want to gauge interest first before producing it, but there are loads of other equally impressive items that could seamlessly blend into anyone’s wardrobe

Military wet pack – $245
