“I have a deep appreciation for anything that is well-made. In 2010, I happened upon photos of Clare Vivier’s handbags in a free airline magazine. I tore out the page and stashed it in my backpack with the intent to buy one for my then-girlfriend, now-wife Molly. I thought, “This is the kind of bag I’d want if I were a woman.” And, while that gifting strategy usually goes about as well as Homer buying Marge a bowling ball, this was a big success. Molly loved the bag: a brown leather clutch with a hot pink stripe. She couldn’t believe I picked it out myself. I was delighted (and insulted) and, from then, every holiday, birthday, and anniversary came with a Clare V. something.”
