"When women ask me where I got my chic Sheila Odessey tote, I wince. I hate giving out my secrets for fear of passing others on the street looking like my doppelganger. But what can I do? I fess up. The trouble is that it's been happening over and over and over again. I carry my laptop in this bag and bring it along to Starbucks; I even use it for quick trips to Whole Foods. For almost a year, we've been inseparable. They're beautifully made, priced right, and best of all, unique. So do me a favor, don't get one!"

"I consider myself a fashionista and would never dream of carrying anything, but a leather bag. In an economy like this one, I have been looking more closely at how I spend my money. I got sick and tired of spending bundles of money on name brand bags that fell apart. I finally found a tote that is indestructible, not ubiquitous and looks good. I have carried this bag in the snow, thrown it in my car, pushed it under an airline seat, slammed it down on a restaurant floor and all I can say is: it's a tough bag for tough times."

I purchased my bag last year from Sheila, a friend and former colleague and have been thrilled with it. I love how she combined her talent and skills as a traditional weaver and her concern for the environment into a very clever endeavor. Every time I use it I never fail to get complements on its uniqueness and trend right attitude. It really is a conversation piece as I always make sure to explain it's provenance and how it's made. Not only is the design and quality fabulous, I love that I helped to save a few more plastic bags from spending eternity in some landfill!

I love my "This bag is not a toy" clutch. It is the perfect size, roomy without weighing a lot because of the material. Every time I carry it people are instantly drawn to it and are fascinated by how and what it is made of.
