Festival Bag (aka Wayfaring Bag) Summer 2013 | Image by Bright Photo
I've received a few emails from people who love the lululemon Festival Bag (what I called the Wayfaring Bag) that I designed for Summer 2013 and are wondering if it will be available again so they can get their hands on one. I no longer design for lululemon, but I did see on their website today that they brought the Festival Bag back!
This is awesome news for two reasons. It means that:
it was a really successful style (yay!)
all you ladies who have been looking to score this bag but missed it last year are in luck!
Still got it: two years running, this bag is chic both at festivals and on the street | left: photo by Dana Ramler Design, right: photo by lululemon athletica
It looks like there are some great colour combos - I am especially loving the webbing on the grey one. Happy festival season!
Back in July, I promised a Wanderlust recap, and I'm happy to say I have some pictures of my Wayfaring Bag design in action that weekend. It was especially exciting to be using it while I attended this event because Wanderlust Festivalwas the exact scenario I had in mind when I designed this bag.
I used mine the whole week I was in Whistler and, though I realize this may sound biased, I loved it. I was lugging around my yoga mat with my shoulder strap, so it was wonderful to be able to wear the bag around my waist to lighten the load. I loved the phone pocket - it's placement on the back panel of the bag meant I could feel the buzz and stay connected all weekend. It was the perfect size, and the interior pockets were perfect for stashing sunscreen, lip gloss, sunglasses and snacks. The best part? When I went through security at the Saturday night concert, the guard complimented my bag!
Here are some pics of my friend Jess rockin' the lilac bag.
Wanderlust ready. Just add shades and malas.
Wear it around your waist when you don't want anything heavy weighing you down.
