The customization trend is kind of getting out of control. From Ferragamos to Prada sunglasses, nearly every high-end retailer is jumping on the bandwagon. Not one to be left behind, Opening Ceremony is now offering personalized tote bags—the carry-all staple for NYC girls who aren’t really satisfied carrying just one bag. Assuming you’re down with the $50 price tag, proceed to the OC website, where you can see a virtual mock-up of your desired bag. Choices include three printed fabrics for the body, handle, and pocket, with the option to add up to three trinkets (I prefer the mini floss, whistle, and pill holder).
Opening Ceremony has announced this as the first project in the OC Workshop, with no word on what’s to come. I have my fingers crossed for design-your-own Fjallravens or OC wooden ankle boots, already available in a number of materials and patterns.
