Martha Stewart Unveils New Accessories Collection with Bandolier
The lifestyle icon collaborated with Bandolier on a line of leather crossbody phone cases and a canvas tote, inspired by her passions for gardening and equestrian style.
Lifestyle mogul Martha Stewart has partnered with accessories brand Bandolier to launch a new collection of "useful and chic" items, including leather crossbody phone cases and a canvas tote bag. Stewart, a longtime fan of Bandolier's products, contributed to the design process, aiming to enhance functionality and aesthetics.
Stewart stated that she has carried Bandolier's crossbody phone cases for years, viewing them as an essential accessory. For this collaboration, she requested improvements such as increased space for cards, high-quality leather, and hardware that complements her wardrobe. The result is a collection that she believes meets these criteria.
The collection features "The Martha" crossbody phone case, available in four snake-embossed leather colorways: taupe, chestnut, pine, and black. A key design element is a more spacious, removable magnetic wallet on the back, capable of holding up to eight cards with an expandable design.
In addition to the phone case, the collaboration includes "The Martha Pouch Set," which bundles the case with a larger clip-on pouch for essentials like lip balm. "The Martha Essentials Set" offers the case with an accompanying pouch for wireless earbuds.
Stewart also designed "The Martha Estate Tote," a substantial canvas bag with leather trim, inspired by her garden. She emphasized the need for durable material and ample space for daily necessities, noting its chic appearance.
The collection is positioned as a potential gift option, with Stewart suggesting that personalizing the color and strap choice can make it a more thoughtful present.
