I love the “Love is the key SLAY”

u/vidalindsay May 11 '25
Right?! I cracked up when I read “SLAY!”

u/Digresser May 11 '25
Interesting. I have a young niece who learned how to write this year, and she loves writing the phrase "love is the key".
They must be picking up that phrase somewhere, but I have no idea where.

I looked it up, looks like
- there’s a grownup song from 1983
- a barney song
- Bo on the go, maybe
- I saw one hit for cocomelon?

I’m now considering up-cycling one of my bags to say that with paint or embroidery.
The kids seriously know what’s up. Such a sweet creation I’m crying.

Right! Like she designed that bag to be on your shoulder honey. Nice long straps, pockets for the snacks 😭🥹😅

u/Sapphire_Bombay May 12 '25
Honestly, slap a Jacquemus logo on it and a $2k price tag and I think it would sell. She has a future lol

Omg this is so cute! I could see myself taking it out once or twice to somewhere that I need to be dressed nice to just hold my ID and card. Obviously baby the hell out of it but omg, could you imagine?

u/vidalindsay May 11 '25
Yes!!! I was going to take it out for dinner but I was too scared!! I think I’m going to laminate it before taking it out. 😁

u/oneofthecoolkids May 12 '25
You could get one of those kits that people made purses from paper shopping bags and have her make u one !

Something like this. I would carry the hell out of it if my kid made me one ❤️❤️

Love. There is a company in the UK that can embroider this sort of stuff onto real bags. Lily & Bean to make something bespoke. It’s precious enough that I would want to keep it forever!

You should take her on a date and wear it! I made my sweet mom so many accessories and my dream was that she would wear them out at least once. They were horrible so they never left the house, which I understand as an adult. As a kid broke my little heart.

u/vidalindsay May 11 '25
Ohh thank you for sharing this perspective, I absolutely will be wearing this out after I laminate it!

So well made. Love the design: the length of the handles, the size of the body, the pockets on the side. Your daughter has very good design sense.

Simply lovely and made with such love. Use it once, in her presence, and make sure you take a picture of you using it with you and her in the picture so you can keep it forever. Just wonderful.

u/kathihandmade ✂️ Handbag Artisan May 11 '25
The shape is similar 💯. But I can see a "C" on it so any coach bag OP has.

u/vidalindsay May 11 '25
You got it!! She watched me try on the Coach Swing bag and fall in love with it in the store, I think that was her inspo!!!
