It’s a good day for J.Crew: The American retailer’s profits have more than doubled. In other good news? Montreal-based travel accessories brand WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie has created an organic collection available exclusively at J.Crew. Wondering how this collab came about? Apparently, serendipity: J.Crew’s CEO is quoted as saying “Met Byron and Dexter (Ed note: of Sartorialist fame) by happenstance in a store in LA and immediately felt the chemistry and vibe of two guys who totally get it.” Not too shabby, right?

The WANT Organic for J.Crew collection includes laptop and iPhone cases and my personal fave: The 72-hour travel bag pictured here. Talk about inspiring wanderlust!
