New, stylish walker accessories from Jeanne&Anne combine functionality and fashion.
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) November 21, 2014 -- Finding fashionable walker accessories was a challenge until now. Jeanne&Anne, a mother-daughter collaboration, is debuting a new line of personal walker accessories manufactured in the U.S. and made from 100% cotton. The collection features more than 40 unique and fun designs available in two different sizes, including a few masculine options. Prices range from $15 to $55 and can be found on the company’s website, JeanneAndAnne.com as well as Amazon.com.
Gayle Tremblay, a former luxury retail executive who spent more than 25 years working as an officer of Neiman Marcus, is the president and founder of Jeanne&Anne. Gayle’s mother, who assists in the design process, suffered health setbacks requiring her to use a walker. Gayle was motivated to create the line after noticing a void in the market for unique, personalized walker accessories.
“The line is inspired by my lovely 87-year-old mother who never leaves home without a wonderful handbag and colorful accessories to complement her wardrobe,” said Tremblay. “When Mom suffered a few setbacks with her health and needed a walker to get around, I began to look for fun, stylish walker accessories to make her life a little easier and found nothing.”
Gayle’s mother has been instrumental in making sure the walker bags combine both functionality and style. Each tote is designed for easy attachment using Velcro™ straps and contains no zippers or closures. The large walker bags are created to fit most standard walkers and do not need to be removed from a walker to collapse it. The mini totes are designed to hold a cell phone or other small personal items.
“After discovering most of the available walker accessories were utilitarian but not suitable for my mother's “fashionality”, I came to realize there were no perfect matches for her,” said Tremblay. “So, voila! Jeanne&Anne was born. Jeanne is my mother's middle name and Anne is mine.”
