The products will range from different shaped bags such as a Tote shoulder bag, clutch bag and a shopper. Accessories will include two different types of purses. When the business starts to grow Rochelle will add more accessories such as key rings, bracelets and ipod / iphone cases. All products will be made in leather and lined with cotton or satin.
