ONA recently wrote to me to ask if I was interested in reviewing and giving away a new camera bag they were coming out with. I did the same for their Brooklyn camera bag (which I still use and love), so I agreed. They sent over their newest, the Chelsea camera bag in cognac leather.
(in case you’re curious: dress • cardigan • bracelet • shoes)
If I’m going out with my big camera in tow, I’m not going to carry a camera bag and a separate purse. With my other bags, I have to pare down a bit, but the Chelsea fits everything I usually carry, plus my camera with a small lens attached and two additional large lenses. I also like the classic, feminine shape and gold hardware.
Would you like a Chelsea camera bag (in either cognac or black) of your own? ONA will give one away to a lucky Making it Lovely reader. Just leave a comment on this post to enter. Good luck!
One entry per person, open to U.S. and international entrants. The giveaway ends next Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at midnight CST, and a winner will be selected randomly.
p.s. You can keep up with ONA by liking their Facebook page.
* Congratulations to the winner, Molly!

January 24, 2013 at 11:11 pmI really love this camera bag. The one I use now is nylon with wrap around cross body strap, and it serves its purpose but it is not stylish in any way. This bowler style in leather disguises the functionality —it just looks
like an attractive purse. I would love to own one.

January 24, 2013 at 11:13 pmI can’t even imagine having such a gorgeous bag for my camera – could be detrimental. The camera may never want to leave it:)

Lindsey
January 25, 2013 at 4:49 amI love this bag! It would make a huge difference compared to lugging around the massive camera bag that
came with our canon rebel when we bought it. :D
JP
January 25, 2013 at 5:32 amI so need this bag!
Lucinda
January 25, 2013 at 5:35 amThis is gorgeous! I’m not a photographer but if I were to win I would give a black version of this bag to my BFF, Fiona who is a photographer. She carries her camera and lense/s around in her big regular handbag if she has a gig to shoot and doesn’t want to lug her big ugly camera bag out with her as well.
Sara
January 25, 2013 at 5:55 amWow! What beautiful bags! What an improvement to the old backpack I lug my camera around in!
Fiona
January 25, 2013 at 6:15 amFingers crossed!
Trixia

January 25, 2013 at 7:07 amOh, I love this bag! Beautiful and I’d probably carry it as a purse when I don’t have my camera with me. Fingers crossed…

January 25, 2013 at 8:05 amSo funny I just discovered ONA bags last weekend at a blogging course in London and absolutely loved the one I saw and I am getting a DSLR for my 30th birthday in two weeks so I would love, love, love one – it would be perfect timing.

Kristi @ SIMPLEPRETTYTHINGS

Mina
January 25, 2013 at 9:39 amI’m with you – I like carrying one bag, not camera bag + purse + etc. This looks just the right size. Not too huge, but I’m thinking it may be able to fit an ipad, notepad, AND a camera! Fingers crossed. =)
Meegs
January 25, 2013 at 9:39 amOh, I love that bag! So gorgeous!
Teresa
January 25, 2013 at 9:44 amGorgeous Bag! :)
Margaret R
January 25, 2013 at 9:50 amI don’t really care that it holds a camera (although that makes it REALLY COOL!) it is just a gorgeous bag!
Natalie
January 25, 2013 at 9:50 amMe please! I just started using my DSLR more and this will make it even more enticing to carry the big clunker around. :)
Melissa
January 25, 2013 at 9:51 amFantastic camera bag. Love it!
maggie
January 25, 2013 at 10:02 amsuch a classic shape! love it
Erica
January 25, 2013 at 10:04 amI have a new baby I haven’t found a bag that is stylish and can hold a diaper or two along with my own goodies, this is it!
Christy
January 25, 2013 at 10:05 amLove! It’d be a beautiful bag even if it wasn’t a camera bag. And the cognac is so pretty. It’d be a great travel bag, because it actually zips closed. Crossing my fingers for an early Valentines present!
Bere
January 25, 2013 at 10:08 amthis is such a beautiful bag!

Amy
January 25, 2013 at 10:23 amAt last, (beautiful) form and function combined! And, even better, it’s less likely to get stolen if it doesn’t look obviously like a camera bag! Fingers crossed :)
Laura
January 25, 2013 at 10:33 amWow, that is stunning. Sign me up!!
Diana
January 25, 2013 at 10:36 amWhat a gorgeous bag! I can’t believe that it’s intended for a camera – I’d use it like you do – camera / purse.
Katie chimienti
January 25, 2013 at 10:38 amI have really enjoyed reading your blog and am quite jealous of your library. My daughter is only 6 months old but it nice to see what a big girl home could look like when she has out grown her nursery of cartoon jungle animals (I had a little too much fun painting while I was pregnant).
The ONA bags are gorgeous! Thank you for showing them. Birthday and Christmas and anniversary wish list!
Kel
January 25, 2013 at 10:43 amlove this!

January 25, 2013 at 10:46 amOh I would love this.
Liv
January 25, 2013 at 10:52 amHow gorgeous! Big upgrade on the ugly bulky black canvas nanufacturers bag I lug about!
Heather
January 25, 2013 at 11:01 amLovely bag – looks perfect for toting camera + kid gear. Just exiting the diaper bag phase & need a little something…
lauren
January 25, 2013 at 11:23 amI would take my camera everywhere and take so many more picture if I had something this lovely to carry my camera safely around in!

Rachael
January 25, 2013 at 12:34 pmI have the idea that a camera bag will make the perfect not-a-diaper-bag diaper bag, but the ones I adore (like this one!) are way out of my price range. I’d love to win!
Liz W.
January 25, 2013 at 1:01 pmI so need a new camera bag! Pick me please!
Katie
