Maiyet Ceres Small Messenger Camera Bag: Balance of Power

I am in love with this brand. With new line Maiyet, the more you look, the more you see. It might seem like this bag is not that unique, but it’s all about the nuances within. Pull-tab closures on the flap, as well as the outer pockets, are becoming the brand’s signature detail; these clean touches of metal grant the camera bag a distinct look – no easy feat for a practical messenger. It’s all about golden tones right now; this rosy hardware is so beautiful. So even though I’m not into black bags, this one has enough polish to make me rethink my bias. The best part, though, is the mega-thoughtful organization. You don’t just get the two outer pockets (which are always useful) – the detailed interior has a spot for every specific thing. Balance is key. The top and bottom are perfect halves, for symmetry that comforts the eye. At Barneys New York for $1,850.

Pair with: Pick up on the hardware in a shrewd way, with Illesteva’s Frieda glasses. The round frames have a modern feel and a creamy-clear hue. On Net-a-Porter for $200.
