Beatrice Boyle Face Print Bag

I debated even putting such a scary bag on our nice and pretty site but I need to make a comment about this whole obsession with vampires and zombies.

Not that I’m trying to make up for my loss of goodwill for the Stella McCartney Recycled Hobo post (but maybe I am), because truly, I am conscientious of the environment and animals.
