GLOBAL CITIZEN: MEET SARAH

At first the weather was really gloomy, but as soon as we started photographing Sarah the sun came out and as bright as ever! :-) Sarah is a self taught artist born in London with a very distinct style which she describes as Owusuism. She is a wonderful person with a passion to inspire people through her craft. She was also a pleasure to photograph and to top it off, thanks to her superpowers it was another sunny day London. Everyone meet our latest Global Citizen Sarah! :-)

We have just gotta say this...

Every now and then we love to show people how things work behind the scenes at High Spirit. Making our bags in London is amazing because we get to be close to the action and it enables us to give our customers a real time update of how their bags are coming along in the manufacturing process. We love our home-grown manufacturing. Our bags are basically fresh from the machine. Lol!

Since collaborating with Helen Anderson to create the Anderz Backpack line, the response has been amazing. We want to Thank You and team that have worked hard on bringing this to Life!! We feel like we are bringing more sparkles, glitter and sunshine to our World and to people’s lives. It is also great to know that we are not the only unicorns and that there are many just like us. Although it has been a lot of hard work in getting everything perfect for our customers it has been worth it. So we’ll keep making safe and beautiful bags for you wonderful people.  :-)
