Yes You Carnce

Çarnce Fall Handbag Collection

Bumping into an ex. Flirting with a married man. The aftermath of swiping your boyfriend’s Amex.

Among the stupider things you leave to chance.

Get a grip with the real deal: Chance Jackson.

The designer is owner/creative director of Çarnce, a budding, Dallas-based handbag line. His hobos, clutches, and shoulder bags have a hippie, rocker-chick vibe, combining earthy materials (ostrich, steer-horn handles, thick leather stitching) with edgy details (chunky hardware, exposed safety pins, colorful, acid-washed cowhide).

For fall Jackson introduces a softer side with color-blocked wrist wallets and bags (we love the pretty lavender hobo). Tough-girl styles are in the mix, too. Note the silver thimble studs and worn black leather.

Can you handle it?

Available at Revolving Door, 1409 South Lamar Street, suite 103 (214-565-0055). To see styles, go to carnce.com.
