Zero Of A Kind

I had prepared to blog about our latest Pochette on Of A Kind today to let you all know you should click on over and pick one up, but by the time I got to the studio this a.m. it had already sold out! 
 Boom! That is the best. We sent them 60 and they sold out in 90 minutes. That's a pochette every 1.5 minute and a record for us!
 When we got the pochette back from our factory all the girls at the studio flipped, but I was still surprised by the quickness with which it sold. I guess people were in the mood for an animal print pochette today.
I love the way OAK editorializes their items with the good photo shoots and the interviews like my favorite neighborhood haunts
This time they also did a "What's in your bag" item which is always my favorite feature in magazines and what I'd decided I want to make a regular item on this blog too, starring other people's bags.
So here's the first one - mine, and barring the flotsam and jetsam of receipts, stray business cards, an old gum wrapper that also inhabit my bag, this is real, this is what I carry in my bag if you looked right now, except my phone (because it's on my desk):
p.s. as I said in that What's in Your Bag piece - I bought the Steven Alan cashmere beanie hats for the girls here at the studio, here are Bri and Saehee wearing them yesterday:
True story.

I missed the sale, too - was so disappointed they were all sold by the time I clicked over. Any chance you'll make more of these to sell in the on-line shop?

Scooped mine up as fast as I could...a good thing, too. :) I can't wait to start using it. And psyched for the new feature.

@jenna @sadie @trish Thanks for getting the pochette! For the others, no, I'm sorry, we will not re-release it because it was limited edition for the folks at OAK. But we'll do something you'll like, I promise. :)
