Yatta is a Japanese exclamation of triumph and roughly translated means ‘I did it!’. It is therefore a fitting name for Jeaneen Benson’s bag/accessories brand. As Jeaneen says, ‘The Yatta brand is fashion made with attitude. ‘

All Yatta products are designed and made by hand by Jeaneen - from the initial idea, research and sketching to the completed product. Included in the current range are handbags, clutches, wallets, stationery and these adorable little ideas books. The book shown above is made from tan denim and shows a picture of Gintz - ‘a curious little sprite’ on the front. Inside is a marker, pencils and notepad to jot down all your ideas and inspirations.

I also couldn’t resist showing you this gorgeous Camille Kittens bag. It’s made from yellow woven cotton with a green kitten lining and has a peek-a-boo kitten on the front.

Based in New York City, Kitten Couture offers a shimmering range of ‘resort inspired activewear’. Their provocative, figure-hugging designs come in a range of vibrant colours and are embellished with beads and sparkly Swarovski crystals.

They also have a glamorous collection of jewellery to complement their clothing. We picked out this pretty cluster bracelet, made from delicious chocolate coloured beads.
