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 23, 2013 at 2:35 pmI was recently slyly commenting to my husband that I might want to get myself a REAL camera bag. We have a nylon one that he graciously bought for me when he surprised me with my camera 2 years ago, and it functions well, but has ZERO style (and I always end up carrying it with my regular purse and feel like a bag lady). Winning this would definitely take the sting out of replacing his gift!
