in my book, opening ceremony can't do anything wrong. they're stores have yet to be outdone, I always find something i love in their collection (most recent purchase - the grunge zip bootie), and not to mention their innumerable collaborations, that often times have catapulted brands from the brink of extinction back into the fashion spotlight. they recently announced their first handbag collection, which of course i immediately needed to start saving for.
bold, bright, beautiful design. what more can you ask for?
Krystal Simpson's style is unmistakably cool and californian. through her blog "what is reality anyway?" she shows us what the words to "california dreamin'" really mean and her effortless style. if this is reality, wake me up....

I met Diego Gomez four or 5 years ago while I was living in San Francisco. We reconnected this past July and I thought: Why don't we sell Diego's pieces on Traitor?
I'm not sure what inspires him but his creations are unfiltered, handmade, and raw. I've always been drawn to people who are this unique.
He creates more than just jewlery: below find a handmade corset made of mac keyboard keys and a straight jacket used to perform in. Hopefully Diego moves to New York soon and we can collaborate more frequently.
