Review: Angela and Roi

Angela and Roi sent me this great black double clasp satchel bag. I've been in need of a cute black bag in this size, so it graced my doorstep at the perfect time! It’s actually really roomy inside and fits everything I need day-to-day, my camera even rests inside nicely. Perfect for New York Fashion Week.

Angela and Roi is a new brand run by two college students from Boston. I love seeing students pursue their love for fashion and entrepreneurship. I wish them all the luck in the world. Check out their site here. And look out for an exciting giveaway at the end of the month! 

I did a little Q&A with the ladies to find out what they are all about, take a read;

1. Who started Angela and Roi? 

As you may have guessed, Angela and Roi started the company together. Angela is a junior college student at Northeastern University, studying Political Science. Roi is a senior college student at Boston University, studying Entrepreneurship.

2. Where are you based and how long have you been in business?

We are currently based in Brookline Village, Massachusetts. We have started preparing for the business for the last 5 months, and we launched in July 2012. So, we have been in business about a month ;) 

3. What handbag trends are you most excited about for the upcoming season?

We are very excited about the minimal design of handbags. We love handbags with minimal design/details but those with very colorful tone.
