Check out how a Bold & Ugly Denim On Denim Upcycled Statement Bag found its way to North Carolina and stole the show.

I've never been to Durham, North Carolina.

But one of my bags has and she showed UP.

Meet Lawanda "LaLa" Sanyang a licensed esthetician, professional makeup artist, and owner of The Beauty Bar presented by LaLa Faces in Durham, NC. LaLa is a woman who knows beauty inside and out. She helps women feel confident in the skin they're in every single day.

So when she pulled up to her birthday celebration draped in sequins, hair and skin popping, and carrying a Bold & Ugly Denim On Denim Upcycled Statement Bag. And I know she was the conversation that night.

The bag wasn't just an accessory. It was a declaration and it was her birthday.

That's the thing about these bags they find the right women. Women who aren't afraid to be bold. Women who know that "ugly" is just another word for unforgettable.

This is what upcycled denim was made for. Not just to look good but to tell a story.

LaLa, thank you for letting this bag celebrate with you. 🖤
