TLB - The Leather Boutique

The ominous blast of thunder shattered the silence. She stood quietly on the old wooden porch and twirled her long coal black locks around her fingers, willing time to move quicker. Her olive skin was flushed with the memory of a broken champagne glass and dried up roses.  The scent of leather crept into the sultry summer air and she dreamed of home… home where the clouds tell stories and the sunbeams dance and every day is a song.

A quaint little store in a one of B-Town’s hotspots, TLB- The Leather Boutique is classy, stylish and exudes an air of high-quality fashion. From well-fitted leather jackets to exquisite hand crafted bags, every item is a work of art.  Every TLB product is of international standard, not just in terms of quality of leather but also the styles and colors chosen. 
“The brainchild of leather experts Zeshan Rahaman and Jayanti Bhattacharya, TLB is the last word on classic yet contemporary leather style.”
I agree! I wanted everything I saw as soon as I walked in and it took every ounce of self-control to walk out without buying up the whole store on an imaginary credit limit.

These photos were shot by Fashion Photographer, Magali Couffon M, to showcase The Leather Boutique  products.
Magali is an inspiring person with a zest for life and a passion for her work. It has been an absolute joy collaborating with her on this project and I hope Purple Rain sees a whole lot more of her going forward.
In Magali’s own words, “The ultimate challenge is the ability to find beauty everywhere and keeping my eyes open for colors, shapes, lines, textures and forms. I try to use my camera as a creative tool not only to document or show what is in front of me but to enhance it with the help of light and sometimes paint, sometimes sculpt, sometimes shoot!”

We look for beauty in the nuances of a complex life and fashion gives us a reason to smile.
Cheers!
