Craving handmade, luxury leather goods? Of course you are: the smell of leather is the ultimate pheromone, and you know what they say about a young woman’s sandal fancy come spring. Scope out the work of New York’s Lucia Nenickova. She uses only the finest leathers from the best tanneries worldwide to create belts, bags (hand-stitched with linen thread coated in beeswax), and sandals (the latter are hand molded with an arch for extra comfort). They are a must for every wardrobe.
