We’re Just Crazy About

Beck BAgs

Leigh “Beck” Moose, who owns the boutique Beck on Broad in Mooresville with husband Ozzy Ojito, is the first to admit she’s always been obsessed with handbags. But after owning bags by many high-end designers, she still could not find one that was “quite right.” She told Ojito she was going to design her own bag and he told her to “go for it.” The two spent many years working as fashion photographers in New York City so it’s no surprise that Beck bags are bold, fashionable, utilitarian and ever evolving. Notable features are heavy duty handles, a plush velvet interior, pebble grain leather and flat bottoms. Colors are inspired by friends, family members, pets and favorite travel spots. The bags are now sold at the flagship store in Mooresville and in more than 275 boutiques worldwide. For fall, you’ll want to check out the Beck Micro Bag (pictured here in Fern and Mushroom). Prices for the bags range from $325 for the Micro to $750 for the larger Weekender. You can also purchase matching accessories such as card wallets and ziplets. Whatever color or style you choose will be perfect for you, because as Moose says, the best accessory a woman can wear is confidence. Beck on Broad, 106 N.
