While fall, our favorite season, may be months away, we at Fringueuse, despite the sweltering heat in NYC at the moment, have already begun daydreaming about the rich autumn hued trousers, oversized stripped knits, printed sweatshirts, peplum hemmed wool skirts and white turtle necks from Ostwald Helgason’s Antarctic naval inspired Fall 2012 show.

“You can love fashion and clothes but that’s not necessarily always the path that you were meant to be on,” explains 30-year-old Ayeisha Mesinger, the designer behind the perfect-with-everything bag line Morgan Parish. Following years as a clothing designer working at labels such as Band of Outsiders, where she focused on menswear, Mesinger discovered her calling while searching for the perfect leather tote to suit her yearning for a bag that was functional, durable and, of course, cool.
