I am thrilled to bring you this next review. Espe is the creation of a few posh women in Toronto, Ontario who wanted to make handbags and wallets stylish and affordable for all women! Not only are they helping ladies be stylish, but they are also concerned about the environment at the same time. All of Espe‘s items are 100% animal cruelty free and are animal friendly. Their products are made from polyurethane, a durable synthetic leather, this means that the toxins that are released from the dying process are not released into the environment.

Espe not only has fantastic styles of bags and accessories, they are also very nice people to do business with. I dealt with Jamie and Eva (the owner) of Espe. Both very extremely friendly and fast at returning emails. I received my package from Espe just 4 days after it was shipped (and it was shipped on a Friday). The people at Espe want to make sure that their products are going to arrive to their clients quickly and in good shape. The package was shipped directly to my door.

espe31 I received a number of items from Espe. All are made from the softest polyurethane, and have unique details that are included on each item. Whether it is a raised flower or a a detailed stitching, each item has it’s own unique flair that makes these products special.

The first is an adorable lunch bag! This cute lunch bag will make all your friends ask where you got your bag. I pack my lunch almost everyday when I go to work (I’m on mat leave right now and only have 3 months left). I usually just pack my lunch in my purse, and by the time lunch time comes around, my sandwich is all squished and warm. My apple is no longer crisp, and my water is as warm as the room. This lunch bag not only has style, but it has function. It is very roomy, there is enough room for a bottled water, a microwaveable dinner, an apple, banana, almost anything that you would want to have for lunch, it will be able to fit in your adorable lunch bag. The bag also insulated so cold things will stay cold and hot things will stay hot!

No one will even know that you are carrying a lunch bag this is just so cute. It looks like a little mini purse, and I’m sure you could use it for that as well if you don’t mind in the silver lining on the inside. Everyone will be talking about your lunch bag, and I’m sure you will get a few offers to trae lunches! espe1

The next item that I was sent from Espe, was a super cute wallet. This is made from the same polyurethane, and is exceptionally soft. The wallet is nice and long, and there is ample space to put all your cards, and money (do you still carry cash in your wallet? I always seem to be cashless). What is really cute about this wallet is the little clip is along the top of the wallet rather than the middle. This little detail really adds a touch of class to an already superb product. The bright colours of this wallet really stand out and people notice it. It always feels nice when other women make comments on your items. It sure makes me feel like I am stylish. The wallet stays looking in the best condition and will close even with all the cards in it, and the material has not cracked or pulled in anyway. Young or old, there is something for everyone at Espe. I recently went to a women entrepreneur meeting, and noticed another woman with a great Espe wallet as well. These wallets are so unique it is obvious that they are made by Espe. That is one feature that I really like about Espe. Some products are very generic, but at Espe, each item is unique and special, but they all carry that same Espe flair so they stand out from other products. Way to go Espe!

espe2 I also received a cute little business card holder from Espe. This is such a great idea for the busy Entrepreneur Mom on the go. I can just throw this cute little holder into my purse and I will know where my cards are in a flash, and I will look smart pulling out my business card from this holder! Many people just put a few cards in their wallets, and when it comes time to give a card out to a client, the card is all bent with the edges turned in. The card holder is the perfect size so the cards have no opportunity to move around and get ruined. So, you will be making an impression to your clients when you pull out your business card with this card holder.

The last item I received from Espe, is a bag tag. This bag tag complete with the signature Espe bright colours is very swanky for a bag tag. Who ever thought a bag tag could look so good? Everyone now a days has a black suitcase with wheels. I can guarantee that you will be the only one with a classy looking bag tag like the ones at Espe and you will have no troubles at all finding your luggage (although you may have some people wanting to take a closer look at your bag tag). The strap is actually like a watch wrist strap with 3 holes for different sizes, so it could fit on nearly any bag that smaller than 2 inches around.

Espe takes a lot of pride in their items and have created a brand like no other handbag company I have seen. Their items are youthful, yet are very stylish and are items that someone any age can use. They stay hip with the trends. They have many stylish items such as camera cases, and even blackberry cases and cosmetic bags, you will be surfing this site for a while admiring all their great items.

I wanted to also share this statement from Espe that I think is just great:

Espe is more than a fashion statement, Espe is a mindset, and lifestyle.
