The Bag of Your Dreams(cape): A Style Guide to the Furry Purse

Gotta run? Keys? Check. Wallet? Check. Phone? Check. Ok, great, now where are you going to put all of it? 

Well, we have good news for you! You can feel like a fashionista decked out in a one-of-a-kind fuzzy bag, designed and created by BB Yasini of Dreamscape. At 17-years-old, BB is handcrafting these plushy pieces all by herself, which are made to order—both ethically and sustainably. Using faux fur and fair trade, BB ensures that no animals were harmed in the making of her fur bags. And each pattern is funky and unique, so you can show a bit of your wild side in the unreleased cheetah school bag (BB’s personal favorite), or you can play it cool in a pink pastel satchel. Whatever you’ve got, and wherever you go, Dreamscape is here to serve all your “just throw it in the bag” needs! 

Born and raised in Virginia, BB coins a small-town vibe with a big city dreamscape. Crafting creative concoctions in her notebook in high school, she was able to turn her dreams into realities and her sketches into samples. BB began by presenting the idea of making these adorable purses to an interest post on Depop. To her surprise, the crowd went crazy over the chance to sport a custom faux fur tote. So, the young designer got down to business, making sure each bag was made with love and will last a lifetime. No matter how strenuous the production process becomes, BB takes a look at Instagram and rests assured that her bags are slung proudly over the shoulder of guys, gals, and great people all over the world. And for her, this is only the beginning. 

On the Dreamscape website, you can snag anything from a tiny tote to a bulky bag, fit for storing all the day’s needs. Not a dull design in sight, everyone is happy showing off the bag of their dreams. But with so many options to choose from, how can you style them all?
