We had fun photographing our NEW soon-to-be-released BUS STOP X HOTELMOTEL gender neutral leather goods collection modeled by our favorite Philly model/artist/designer/muse Khalia Abner aka Cherrelle Champagne creator of the wearables brand with a message & movement Can't Colonize The Vibe.

We worked as a team. Thanks to photographer Rosie Simmons, assistant stylists Aubrey Loftus and Jessie Falasco for capturing and creating the gorgeous professional product photos and editorial images, which we'll be sharing with you soon!

We shot inside BUS STOP shoe boutique's brick and mortar, to transform the space into a modern photo studio for the day.

ICYMI: This year we revealed a new colorful capsule In-house collection - BUS STOP X LOUD - our loudest collection yet. #BusStopXLoud was inspired by this moment in time for us to be Brave, Bold & LOUD.

.

Our In-house LOUD colorful women's shoe designs continue to bring a BIG jolt of joy into each and every day, expressing our desire for boundless creative expression this season and forever. The collection itself explores the psychology of color to celebrate this monumental moment of potential. We were so eager and excited to expand our In-house BUS STOP X LOUD collection and collaborate with women artisans and makers Niki & Corinne of Atelier HOTELMOTEL in Montreal.
.
STAY TUNED: #BusStopXHotelMotel limited-edition capsule collection is launching during Design Philadelphia 2022 at a women-owned coffeehouse Rally.

.

Get a first look at our collaborative three piece accessories line created in tandem with Montreal-based, woman-owned brand HOTELMOTEL.

.
See how we styled the new accessories with our LOUD collection of women's oxfords in bold colors. Model Khalia wore her own simple, classic, chic, minimalistic wardrobe, and her pieces allowed the Taco Bags, card wallets, and keychains to really pop!

Shot against our favorite new bright green backdrop, Rosie captured the exclusive limited edition three piece collection of supple, vegetable tanned leather items in hard-to-find curated colorways perfectly. Khalia wore the pieces effortlessly to reveal how the new collection consists of the perfect gender neutral hands-free city travel companions.

Here's a tease of the "Taco" handbag, the sleek minimalistic perfectly-sized slim card wallet, and the exaggerated, oversized keychain designed by both brands / BUS STOP shoe boutique in Philadelphia and handmade by the passionate artisans of Atelier HOTELMOTEL - Niki Jessup and Corinne Bourget - in Montreal, Canada!
.
The new colorful collaboration will be revealed at Rally during the final day of Design Philadelphia. What better time and space to showcase the collection made with love by a new sisterhood of brands from two art and design centric cities. The "I'd Rather Be X" collection spans two countries, connects two metropolitan cities, and celebrates travel, culture, comfort, and the magic found in having an adventurous lifestyle.

We had a BALL during our photo shoot with a fantastic team of incredible women and non-binary creatives.

We CANNOT WAIT to share more with you very soon in October!

In the meantime, an inspiring glimpse for your eyes only...
