Lapin Vilardi

Erica Vilardi, Designer and Owner

Erica Vilardi of Lapin Vilardi keeps it real...even while designing the kind of travel bags that make you swoon. Cuz, see, her wildest dream? "Never worrying about stupid things like money and bills again." Nice reality check from someone who's taken the travelers of the world from resorting to plastic hotel laundry bags for lugging their dirty clothes to coveting her fun, flirty, and super hipster designer bags...for lugging their dirty clothes. And shoes. And cosmetics. Lapin Vilardi's collection of chic travel accessories are the creation of the "eclectic hippie utilitarian" in Erica, constantly growing, always seeking. There's an honesty to Erica's view of life that resonates. As someone who claims "I still haven't figured out" what she wants to be when she grows up and that the one thing she knows for sure is "I don't know enough," Erica's vibe is that of an old friend...an old friend with really great taste and cool stuff she's willing to share.
