I’m sure many of you remember Nneka Hurley from the designer spotlight post we did on her late last year. The up and coming handbag designer had her 2008 Spring/Summer launch party in her hometown of Richmond, Virginia over the weekend. Special shout out to Dee from Cake & Ice Cream for some of the photos. And if you are interested in purchasing a bag from Nneka, make sure to check out that spotlight post for more info!

@ 7. She does make them handmade so I would see how they sell out fast. Did you contact her about a particular bag?

@ 6
Mine was sold out but I ask for another one and she delivered. Just inform her of the one you want and she’ll handle it.

Don’t knock her…

It’s good to see my African (Nneka? Kenyan?) sister doing the entrepreneur thing!

Organizing and managing a business of goods and services is a lost art for most Black Americans!

@5. Dont Argue With Me It’s Just An Opinion

It may just be a fun bag that you would carry on the red carpet, vacationing or to a festival! Oh, I forgot, you never go on vacation or the red carpet!

Anyhow, why must we always be consumers and never producers?

I’m not a “clutch”" carrier, I’m more of a large satchel/tote/hobo wearer.

I do like that snakeskin/alligator print bag………

NNEKA HURLEY is one fine woman !

She has the skills to pay the bills….

Thanks Tasha! I wish American sistas could start a business other than hair styling and daycares! Good for Nneka, but I hope she’s not importing the purses from Nigerian slave labor. I’ve about Nigerians in America who ship raw materials to their families back home to make the final products and then they keep 95% of the profit!

Struggle is a process that should benefit everyone!

Congatulations Nneka. It is great to see a young African-American woman doing big things. I just love, love, love your bags. The new line is Oh So Fab! I wish you much prosperity and success. Here’s a little word of advice………you have officially made it when you have the negative people dying to leave multiple comments about how they don’t like your bags when obviously they took the time to visit this blog. Added, Weren’t there multiple celeb gossip on the main page? OK! They chose to go where?….It speaks for itself. Smile for the PAPARAZZI NNEKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Be Blessed.

Actually she is African American # 36 . Alot of people seem to think she is African b/c of her name. Its just her name though.
Congrats Nneka! Keep doing your thing and dont worry about any of the negative comments!!!

These bags are awesome. Very creative, unique and one of a kind. Everyone in the pictures look beautiful. The bags can make any plain outfit “pop”. Continue the hard work…and don’t pay attention to the nay-sayers. These bags aren’t for everyone…only the grown and sexy.
