Flamingo Handbags are BIG for Spring!

Flamingo handbags are popping up all over this Spring! These bags show pictures, embroidery, or fabric with flamingos all over. Did you know that flamingos are related to storks, herons and ibises and that their bill is highly specialized to filter out algae from the food that they eat?

These birds received their name from the Portuguese flamenco which means "flaming" and is a comment on their beautiful color, which can range from scarlet to pink.

If you want a super fun handbag for this Spring, take flight with the flamingo!
