(Coat - Zara / Sweater - Ann Demeulemeester / Belt - Valentina Harness / Bag - Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony / Boots - Dolce Vita)
I promised next day, yet it took me two...typical me. Today I was able to chase down the sun around 30 minutes before its setting, en route to the post office with my intern Michael who was kind enough to help me with a few photos.
This post is about a bag. Important note: I am not a bag person. I am a dress person, boot person, jacket person...but bags for me are an item of function, a vessel that should work alongside and not distract from an ensemble. I hate switching belongings from one purse to another, and lately I've grown increasingly disinchanted with lugging around a heavy bag to accommodate everything I own. Its Goldilock's syndrome: My 4-year old Margiela doctor's bag is a bit too big, and the "Mummy" bag that I made use daily is a bit too small. And then miraculously and unintentionally I stumbled upon a bag that was just right.
I blame twitter, Tavi, and her interview with Chloe Sevigny on Rookie Mag. Midway through reading, my eyes fell on the word "S&M" (no surprise there) accompanied by a picture of a soft leather doctor's bag with handcuffs for handles. Twas love in an instant, equal parts minimalist and kitch humor, plus it fits my camera - points!

In an unexpected twist of fate, I had another Chloe Sevigny encounter - this time purely virtual, by way of Opening Ceremony's "At Home With Chloe" video series where she shows off her Pentagram Harness at the end of the clip. This harness will be available at Opening Ceremony NY & LA later this month.

omg youre unstoppable zana. ... i love the insanered boots
am i the only one who finds it uber rude that she name dropped like crazy in that video, yet failed to mention who designed the fabulous harness that she so proudly displays?! either way... i'd be swooning too if chloe sevigny touched anything in connection with me. congrats!!!
How cool! The bag really rocks. Love how the boots pop!
You're really going sky high with your harnesses!
I never realised how damn awesome that harness looked. Also, fuck that bag is amazing and I'm soooooo fussy when it comes to bags.
how cool! wishing you continued success with the harnesses.
by the way, your red shoes...*love*
and your hair looks more amazing than ever.
tahst really cool. chloe wears your stuff!
i like your red boots!
So cool that you read Rookie. They should feature you on there.
You look so beautiful, healthy, and perfectly proportioned :D lol
& your hair looks marvelous, too!
But mostly, congrats on the Opening Ceremony deal! That should bring in some much deserved commercial level cash flow. Are you going to continue personally making all the harnesses by hand?
& wtf I agree with "Anonymous" she should have given you some credit!
Amazing! I think I also saw a photo of her hanging out in her closet in NYTimes with one of your harnesses in the background!
