I am not sure if I have mentioned it here, but I will be launching my handbag line VEL this year and hope to show with a local designer during New York Fashion Week in September. However, I have a dilemma -- I can't come up with a domain name! Unfortunately, the obvious, www.vel.com, is taken and the line surely warrants something grandeur than velonline.com, non?
The line is called VEL. Named after my maternal grandmother, Velma. The first collection will feature 4 different pieces - 2 clutches, a tote bag and a waistbag - that will utilize buttery soft cowhide leather and vintage kimono fabrics coupled with industrial detailing.
What are your resolutions for 2007?
1. Get VEL going (my handbag line)
2. Introduce Parallel MVMT
3. Do less web development and graphic design
4. Have my surgery
5. Save $10k
6. Take a holiday to another country
At first glance, you might think these women are carrying trash bags. Well, they’re not. It’s the latest Chanel plastic carryall, about $1,000, with chain handles and a signature double-C charm. A few are in leather, and, one, below, is a rare satin one. The bag, first spotted in Paris last month, above, is the superstatus bag carried by shoppers on Madison and Fifth Avenues. There is a waiting list of months to buy one.
