Let’s Play Atelier

When someone compliments what you’re wearing, there’s many ways to respond. The short and sweet “thank you.” The person who doesn’t want to appear to spend frivolously “Thanks. It was totally on sale…super cheap!” The efficient one who likes to kill two birds with one stone “Thanks it’s [insert designer here] from [insert store name here].” But then there’s the ultimate response…the one that we’d all love to give, “Thanks, it’s custom.”

A Proenza Surprise

Remember this post from my New York trip in July? Well the day has finally arrived…and I received my custom Proenza Schouler PS1 I designed with Jack and Lazaro this summer! I still can’t believe this is real, but yeah…it happened.

I want to share with you amazing photos of this bag, but unfortunately I don’t have a lot of time (especially in daylight…which we get like 5 hours of now) to do that. So for now, here’s a sneak preview including me opening the package from New York and the special engraved plaque on the inside with my initials.
