Fashiontoast Rumi Neely Brings her “Go-To” Cowl Bag to Japan

As we said before, this is the ultimate “Go-To Bag“.  After visiting us for our F/W 10 Fashion Show, celebrity blogger Rumi Neely never leaves home without her favorite Obakki leather cowl bag, bringing it to Japan and beyond.

*The Obakki Cowl bag is sold out at the moment. We want to know what you have to say about this. Leave a comment and tell us what you think.

You Better Recognise!

Well known for her theatrical sense of fashion and sultry voice, British singer-songwriter and actress Paloma Faith poses for the cover of Recognise Magazine in Obakki.  Think Amy Winehouse’s soulful music crossed with Gina Davis’ fiery beauty, add a touch of burlesque-hollywood glam and you’ve got Paloma.

Paloma is seen on the cover wearing our SS10 best selling Juno dress (now available in Dark Grey and Cement). Already sold out once before, it’s been flying off our racks so fast we’ve made more just for you.  Giving you a little teaser of what’s to come for Fall, Paloma wears our leather band Maxi dress. To get a sneak peek, check out our Fall / Winter Fashion Show photos on our blog and on Facebook.

Catch a behind-the-scenes video of Paloma’s hit “Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful” below.
