Yana Handbags: Keepin’ it Real!!

30 January 2009, 20.53 | Posted in Accessories, Fashion | No comments »

Samia and I made a visit to Yana Handbags headquarters in SoHo yesterday to chat up the desiger and to see what she has in the works. Chicago-born and FIT-schooled Yana has been in the bag business for a minute, but it was the launch of her Keepin It Real fanny pac bag that upped her buzz ampage big time. The lambskin bag’s standout feature is Yana’s signature doorknocker earring (and don’t any of you try and steal it either because I WILL call you out on that ish!), a custom designed, gold-plated piece of hardware, which is featured on a couple of other bags as well.

Keepin' it oh so real!!! This is the line's most popular color,

I have one of these in tobacco (see next page) and I wore it for the first time last night. I must have hit the crack pipe one time too many ’cause somehow I left it in the front seat of my car after it had been belted around my body all night! The only thing I forgot to do was affix a giant “Please Steal Me” sign to it. Damn!
