Inspired Design

Where do you find inspiration?

In your community? In your girlfriends? In the children around you? In the rainforest?

Ann Veronica handbags, based in Cape Elizabeth, finds inspiration in all of these things. And more. Ann's hand-silk-screened canvas bags, meticulously designed and crafted by hand, are as colorful as a rainbow and as adorable as can be. The gorgeous colors will have you thinking of warmer climes regardless of the weather, and their preppy-chic patterns will be all the rage, whether you summer in the Hamptons or Hampden.

Though our favorite pattern is Kashmir (pictured above), we're equally wild about the Inspirations line, many of which are named after Maine towns, all of which include a 10 percent donation to charity. We especially like the new Freedom line (at right), which benefits Orangutan Outreach, featured on Discovery Channel's "Orangutan Island."

It might just inspire you to buy a new bag — and support a good cause in the process.
