Summer camp: two weeks of swimming in a murky lake, performing lame skits about cabin life, and hiding mom’s brownies from the chubby girl. You couldn’t tie a knot to save your life, but when it came to lanyards, your under-over skills were legendary.

Alas, your key chain reign is over. But that doesn’t mean you don’t still appreciate a good weave.

Relish designer Katherine Kwei’s debut handbag line. Her ultra-high-end totes, hobos, and clutches are all made using the Chinese knotting skills she learned from her grandmother. Her traditional roots have also given Kwei an appreciation for detail and fine craftsmanship to create bags that are part work of art, part cowgirl chic.

Pair the fringe-tastic Zara tote with a snakeskin finish in either coffee, mustard, salmon, or putty with your favorite jeans and boots, and you’re ready for gallery night.

Or even rodeo night.

If you’re ever feeling, you know, campy.

Available at Capretto Shoes, 5822 Sunset Drive, South Miami (305-661-7767). To see styles, go to katherinekwei.com.
