Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Gem presents one standout piece. Whether it's a jacket, necklace, or handbag, it's on our have-to-have list.
What: Phoenix-based fashion designer Jennifer Paige Boonlorn makes bags for women who carry their lives around with them -- hence her brand's name, Soul Carrier.
Made from re-purposed and up-cycled materials, our favorite Soul Carrier style is the Kelly Beth Weekender, a large tote with vegan leather trim that's spacious enough to fit everything we'd need for a quick getaway. Who says road tripping can't be stylish?
Where: Soul Carrier's online storefront
Cost: $250

Style It: Road trip in style with a T by Alexander Wang jersey shirt dress, suede ankle boots by Isabel Marant, and Stella McCartney cat eye sunglasses. Chic, easy, done.
