My sole mission is to build a successful company that will provide my customers with GREAT hand-tailored custom tote bags and accessories that will meet these qualities....

….and ultimately foster the growth of socially disadvantaged young adults interested in careers in fashion through mentorships, internships, and education which will help create a resurgence of the diminished apparel and accessories industry in the USA.

How do I do that you ask? By manufacturing hand-tailored custom and readymade tote bags and accessories. What’s more compact, portable, practical, modern, multifunctional, modular, simple, smart, stylish and sustainable than a tote bag.

Totes are defined as large and roomy bags and that’s a description that covers a lot of types of bags. Totes have been in use since women were going out to gather food and even today they are a must in our mobile lifestyles. The more we do, the more we need them. The working woman, the stay at home mom, the educator, the fitness guru, the world traveler, and the college student, all have special requirements and equipment that needs to be carried. 

The difference between a plain utilitarian tote and a designer original is the fabric. That’s where I come in. Pink Koala Design marries modern and vintage influences and offers a collection of custom stylish, functional and practical tote bags and accessories in an assortment of fabrics, vintage and modern. My hand-tailored tote bags and accessories are simple and stylish, and the textiles I choose are retro inspired vibrant textiles that give each product a little something extra. Pink Koala Design is a combination of my passion for fashion design, bold colorful textiles, and simple classic design.

Although Pink Koala Design is still growing, you can believe that there is so much more to come. Pink Koala Design exists to merge business with community outreach. My goals are to provide stylish functional tote bags and accessories and to build a profitable business that will foster growth for socially disadvantaged young adults interested in careers in fashion through mentorships, internships, and education which will help create a resurgence of the diminished apparel and accessories industry in the USA.
