There aren’t too many options when it comes to non leather or recycled leather handbags. Yes, Stella McCartney designs some amazing alternatives to leather that we’d love to own, and there is Ashley Watson, but that’s a pretty short list. Which is why we’re so excited to discover Ora, a collection of re-purposed handbags out of Vancouver BC.

Ora Handbags are made from vintage garments and local upholstery scraps that would otherwise crowd the landfills. All Ora handbags are fully lined with internal pockets, all straps are adjustable and each bag is made one by one by designer Randi.
Ora Handbags are available for purchase online at Nouvelle Nouvelle.
Amazing find! I love my Ashley Watson bag and am always looking for recycled leather bags that aren’t so crunchy and organic looking!

Hi Katlin. Try Nouvelle Nouvellehttp://www.stylebite.com/2007/06/nouvelle-nouvelle.html, I believe they just got a new shipment in. They only have a blog but are really nice and will ship to you. Sorry big Kartel didn’t have them — I need to change that in the post!
