Experience the essence of Ola Kala Luxury Handbags USVI, a brand born from the Caribbean’s serene beauty and crafted with sustainable luxury in mind. Shanna Dickerson, owner of Blue Sky Luxury Travels, met Erika Preuss, the owner of Ola Kala Bags on the tennis courts at the St. Thomas Yacht Club. As a fellow fashion enthusiast and woman entrepreneur, Shanna wanted to share Erika’s Caribbean journey of founding Ola Kala, the brand behind the most luxurious handbags designed straight out of St. Thomas, USVI.
The Inspiration
On a sailing trip through the Caribbean, Erika found herself enchanted by the tranquil island life. She imagined creating a brand that would mirror the Caribbean’s sun-kissed beaches, awe-inspiring coral reefs, and laid-back rhythm. It was a life-changing experience as Erika soon left behind her Colorado home to immerse herself in the serene beauty of the Virgin Islands, which spurred the creation of Ola Kala, a celebration of life, dreams, and rediscovery.
The USVI Connection
Erika found the Virgin Islands to be breathtaking, authentic, and paramount to protect. She has partnered Ola Kala with The Virgin Islands Conservation Society, Inc. (VICS) as an Advocate Corporate Sponsor, in order to preserve the natural beauty and rich biodiversity of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Each handbag is a step towards a sustainable future and is crafted from ecologically mindful materials like raffia and high-quality leather, which further symbolize Ola Kala’s commitment to the earth.
The Design
Erika believed that a handbag could be more than a fashion accessory. It could be a portal to moments of joy, relaxation, and the enduring blessings of life.
To pay homage to where the journey began and reconnect to the serenity of the Caribbean, every Ola Kala bag has a turquoise-blue interior lining adorned with a map of the Virgin Islands.
The Bags
The Ellowyn is a travel geared handbag equipped with a rear strap that fits over a luggage handle. There is also a deep pocket for easy storage of your passport and other important documents that require easy retrieval.
Bags can be purchased online from the Ola Kala Bag Store which has expedited and insured delivery, secure payments, and free returns within 14 days. As a special memento and with advance purchase, an Ola Kala Bag can be waiting for you upon arrival at one of the villas that we book.
Shanna Dickerson now has seven gorgeous Ola Kala Bags and wants to spread the word on the excellent product. To fashion boutiques around the Caribbean, Bahamas, Florida, Carolinas — these would be a unique and beautiful addition to your line. To all Blue Sky women clients (and husbands looking for gift ideas) — these handbags would go great with the luxury tropical destinations we book you in!
Warmly,
Shanna Dickerson
