YAY.

If you're Instagram obsessed, you've definitely spotted Cult Gaia bags featuring on various fashion and style accounts over the last couple of months. In some rather brilliant news that's made Monday considerably more enjoyable, Brown Thomas has announced that the brand is now available to purchase at a number of its Irish stores. The Arc bag is probably the most recognisable as it's become the must-have summer piece for the fash crowd and now we want in on the trend. Cult Gaia bags are inspired by Japanese picnic baskets and are made from bamboo and acrylic, fashioned in a semi-circular shape. The label was founded in 2012 by Jasmin Larian and is based in Los Angeles but it's become somewhat of a global sensation over the last year. A number of the designs, ranging from mini to large options are now available to buy at Brown Thomas Dublin and Galway, BT2 in Dundrum and Blanchardstown and online via the BrownThomas website. Prices start around the €160 mark and we're already planning ways to justify a bag splurge in time for summer 2018...
