The Perfect Gift For: Your Favorite Makeup Artist.
Like so many New Yorkers, Tanja of Sweet T Original prefers dressing in monochromatic black. But when she designs her bags, she sheds her basic black in favor of bright colors, bold prints, and combinations of contrasting fabrics.
Tribal tattoos came to mind when Tanja saw this particular Marimekko print. And because Tanja promised her mother that she wouldn’t get any more tattoos, she decided to make herself a bag that reminded her of them.
Did you know? Tanja has “New York†tattooed on her left shoulder. At least, she hopes that’s what it says, since she can’t read Chinese!

Coco Chanel once said, “Innovation! One cannot be forever innovating. I want to create classics.â€
Like Chanel, designer Capri Rose is all about creating classics. Inspired by her love of vintage textiles and wallpaper patterns, Capri designed her Tunisian Moon Pajamas, a feminized, modernized version of a pair of pajamas her father wore in the 1970s.
Fun fact about Capri? She thinks that gefilte fish is a culinary delight.
Thanks, Lela, for the tip!

Lauren of Urban Bloom loves the simplicity of the geometric shape of these earrings. An added bonus? Despite the size of the stone, the earrings are surprisingly lightweight.
To best showcase the earrings, Lauren recommends creating a mod look with a knit dress in a neutral black, ecru, or charcoal grey.
Fun fact about Lauren? She and her boyfriend are redecorating, and they sat on beach chairs for four months while waiting for their new couch to be delivered.

Ben Harnett was inspired by a WWII Helmet Bag, which evolved in a spell of 3am creativity into a bag that does more than double duty.
What to pair the bag with? According to Harnett, the versatile tote goes with anything and everything–from sweats to YSL.
Something you didn’t know about Hayden-Harnett? The company was started on April Fool’s day by two hardworking people and a slightly less hardworking cat. But they’re no joke.
$193 at Hayden-Harnett.
