The brand's founder, Francesco Lauri, after working with his family's chain stores throughout the Lazio region of Italy, as well as at top luxury brands, created Luken & Co. about a year ago.</p><p> </p><p>The current collection focuses on bags built for everyday life, which provide a feeling of luxury while at attainable price points - ranging from $110 to $32. The bags in the collection are a mix of Italian leather, vegan leather, and fabric. One of the highlights of the collection is the option to switch up the straps on all the bags, with the addition of a sleek <a href="https://www.lukenandco.com/product-page/chain-shoulder-strap" target="_blank">chain</a>, or a vibrant printed <a href="https://www.lukenandco.com/product-page/italia-shoulder-strap" target="_blank">guitar strap</a>. </p><p> </p><p>I'm wearing the <a href="https://www.lukenandco.com/product-page/firenze-shoulder-bag" target="_blank">Firenze Shoulder Bag</a>, a roomy camera bag made from Italian leather, with the gold chain strap. The bag features gold tone hardware and a fun tassel zipper pull. It's available in four colors, but I love this creamy nude/blush for a season-less neutral shade that isn't black.</p><p> </p><p><i><b>If you fall in love with a bag from Luken & Co., use my code CHICLYDDIE to get 20% off your purchase!</b></i><br /></p>
