Willingboro, NJ, August 15, 2008 — After a 8 month hiatus, the handcrafted leathergoods indie designer, Terina McKinney, re-opens her online boutique today with a collection of autumn inspired accessories. The new collection includes lambskin clutches, totes, and mini cases in autumn’s vibrant hues, adorned with gorgeously handmade leather leaves.
The line is available at the Jypsea online boutique at www.Jypsea.com and in Brooklyn, NY at Nubian Heritage at 560 Fulton St. The happenings behind the scenes of the life of the designer is documented in her new blog: http://journals.aol.com/jypseagoods/Jypsea.com--thoughtsmusingsnew-h/
Because of the designer’s commitment to environmental concerns, the new collection will also include bags made from recycled leather jackets, coats, and other discarded leather garments. To help the Jypsea customers to eliminate waste, Terina is encouraging them to send her their no longer used leather garments to create a custom handbag instead of creating waste.

Dear Fashionistas,
Jypsea is going through a major transition. The new collections will be unveiled Fall 2008.
In the meantime, I'm clearing out my inventory. Everything is 50% OFF!
Yes, that included those Snakeskin Waist Cinchers you've been eye-ing and all bags!
With SAME DAY SHIPPING, you can wear your new items out this weekend.
SHOP NOW because each piece is one-of-a-kind and once it's gone, it's gone forever!
