I’ve been drooling over the Proenza Schouler PS1 Satchel for a while now. What a perfect everyday bag that is both casual & classic without being too precious. Comes in several colors and this cool blue shade is to-die-for. Available at Kirna Zabete & mytheresa, retails for around 2k… yeah, no way for me.

I absolutely adore the gorgeous blue shade & styling on this ASOS Leather Cobalt Blue Twist Lock Satchel ($117.92) below. Also comes with shoulder strap and the distressed leather gives it a chic dated look. Not as slouchy as I’d like but all in all, one fab bag.

If you love vintage fashion, Reborn Process is the shop that you don’t want to miss. Now model/designer Hyoni Kang (Ford Models’ Supermodel of the World 2007 winner) has opened an unique vintage shop in Soho just a few months ago.
Hyoni and partner Aeri turn their vintage finds into one-of-a-kind pieces that are both vintage & trendy. Hyoni calls it “a vintage reform and remake store” - this is what sets Reborn Process apart from other vintage stores. How cool is it that each piece is the only one made in the world? Hyoni’s inspiration comes from vintage pieces she scopes out at the flea markets, antique shops, and vintage/antique shows around the country.
Hyoni’s tip for vintage fashion “I love the idea of mixing older pieces with new items for a fresh look.” I couldn’t agree with her more.
