Determined, independent and courageous, Amelia Earhart was always looking for adventure. The most accomplished aviatrix of her day, she was constantly breaking records, flew farther than any woman, and most importantly, she never doubted her ability to succeed just because of her gender. In 1932, she became the first woman and second person to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She pushed the boundaries of female stereotypes and aimed to inspire other women to do the same. Leading by example, Amelia used her fame and status as an American hero to encourage women to reach their full potential. In addition to her world-renowned success as an aviatrix, she was an author, lecturer, businesswoman and career advisor to young women.
Her countless successes in her field, as well as her contributions to the advancement of women’s equality and independence should not only be remembered, but celebrated. It is for these reasons we have chosen Amelia Earhart as our latest iconic woman to honor with her own Purse with a Purpose.
The Earhart Bag boasts clean lines and a simple shape, as well as functional inside pockets and a detachable matching wristlet. Utilitarian in design and featuring her quote “The most effective way to do it, is to do it”, this beautifully crafted leather handbag embodies Amelia’s ambitious, self-reliant attitude and her driven, no-nonsense approach to life. It is the perfect bag to bring on your next trip…perhaps on a flight across the Atlantic.
