What were your inspirations for this collection?

I love the 80′s.  I was reall inspired by the rock bands of that decade and I also wanted to mix it with some lingere looks with a lot of laces and corseting. I wanted to design an affordable line ( the bags cost anything from $200-$500.) I love clutches because I need them when I go out.

What are you working on after this collection?

I’m very busy, I have a couple projects on the table.

Where are you going to spend your summer?

Here in NYC!  Last summer I was in Europe so this year, I wanted to stay here and relax. I’ve occasionally gone to the Hamptons too. I’m going also in Las Vegas in August for the first time and I’m very excited.

Don’t forget to pick up one of  Tinsley’s bags from the  Samantha Thavasa store located at 965 Madison Avenue New York, NY and online.

Sisters Beyonce and Solange Knowles put on their best sailor outfits and strike sexy poses in this new ad for Japanese handbag designer Samantha Thavasa.

The nautical-themed ads will appear in Samantha Thavasa’s 117 shops nationwide in Japan.

Hotel heiress Paris Hilton previously was the spokesperson for the Thavasa brand.
