Happy (almost) New Year, HHhotties!

Just popping in to say hi and to answer some questions that have been posted recently.

rubycat: For New Year's Eve, we're popping into some friend's parties and having dinner with Ben's family (everyone in the far-flung Harnett family is here this year!). I'm wearing my HH Faithfull tunic in our digikat print from Fall'08, my new Studly drawstring in black, my Zelda boots in black, black ponte' knit leggings, my Estelle peacoat in black wool, and fantastic glitterama nails...manicured extra short, but gleaming like a discoball.

HH 2012 Predictions? I definitely see Carryalls, the Wyeth Tote, and the Conrad in your future. My oracular lips are sealed beyond those words.

Here's to a happy, healthy, peaceful, prosperous, and joyous 2012 for all- cheers!

xxo-Toni

Hope you have a great evening!

Can't wait to see all of the great Hayden Harnett goods to come, so exciting.

Bring on the carryalls!! Can't wait! And also excited for a Conrad. Have tried to obtain one, but have always been too late. Can't wait to see these in all the new colors!:D

Your New Year's Eve sounds like it was fun. Hope you had a great time Toni. Sounds like you looked fab too!!
 
Happy New Year, HHhotties!

We had a really lovely New Year's Day and I hope that yours was wonderful as well.

Skydive Nikki: The Nackie in Moss arrives and launches this week! We tested out this version in the new 'Naked Cow' leather vs/ the Shrunken Lamb to see how she comes out in a slightly less thick & textured leather. I'll be posting pics and she will go live by Wednesday.

Mr. Conrad & the Wyeth Tote: Look for these in March :)
 
^^Thanks for the reply! How exciting! Is the naked cow the same leather used on the ginger havana? I LOVED the wrinkley shrunken lamb. I hope you do more bags in that. A pomp or pilot would be awesome!
 
Oh...there are actually many of our lovelies that got away- or- I gifted them and then regretted it immensely because I missed it so much.

The HH's that I'm entirely remiss to not have in my personal collection (painful list...ouch.):
-Gifted a Clara flap bag in black shine with yam/grape pushlock (major D'oh!) in a fit of tipsy friend over-love. really regret that one.
-gifted my chalk, poppy, and metallic indigo with brocade panel mercer clutch (ughhhh)
-gifted my nicos (rrrrrrrrrrrr- ahhhhhh) chalk, iznik yellow, OOAK brandy, luggage (SP06 originals!)
-gifted my havana in anthracite and in original F'05 wool with leather floral applique (serious mistake)
-gifted my lorca in goldrush & tokyo clutches

-recent losses that were even more ridonc:
-all items of tron & fantasia collections (yes, i tried to hoard one of each for our archives, but we decided the customers were more important...i kept my quorra and attacked anyone who even looked at it hanging in my office. biggest regrets from losing them: castor clutch & veneficus libri (bad latin) chain bag)

-Welles hobo in black with multicolor drawstring
-Burke Satchel (didn't get one for myself and still really, really regret it...i may start drinking now)
-Tobias Crossbody (ditto...ditto)
-Lava Clutch & cuff (more ditto)

Oh my! I am about to receive a Lorca in Goldrush (have the wallet, lucky to have found another Goldrush item!)...and I have the Tobias in black that I've never carried. Sitting in her bag with the paper still on the handles! I have several bags that are "new" in their bags and in some cases their boxes too including the Tamasin in Pewter, Brandy Lorca, and Wyeth Hobo in Cordovan. Oldies but goodies I have are the Staci in red and painterly, Trophy in Cordovan (?), Havana Hobo in black, Conrad in Cordovan, Sonia in Cordovan, Trophy in black, Langley in Chevron and khaki/cognac, Sao Paulo in red, Erol canvas in blue, Gaza Satchel in taupe and one in the canvas with white leather trim (not in good shape though), tow Bleeker backpacks, Pan Am tote, capri glass case x2, coin purses x2, and I have one that has tweed, leather, and a flower on the outside with two handles and it snaps on the inside pockets...does that make sense? I'm not sure of the name at all. I have way too many...om!!! OLD Nico that I wish you'd bring back with a cbody strap and even a smaller/shorter version in the Nico...oh!! And the bag that started it all for me is my black Barnard that is still going strong!! The leather is nicely broken in and smooshy!

Hayden Harnett is so addicting! The quality, the uniqueness of the pieces, the sturdiness, and longevity all have me hooked and have for a few years. :love:

I would LOVE to see you bring back the Staci. I have two currently. I carry the red one daily for almost a year. A day does not go by that someone somewhere asks about it and says it's so cute, they love it! At work, in the store, you name it! I would just love to see a "slightly", ever so slightly thicker strap with clips on the ends like the old Pomp or Ibiza...they are totally enclosed clasps. Sometimes if my Staci is overloaded, the clasp gives way.

I would also love to see the Louvre back but with a strap in a darker color. To keep costs down having it in the web material would be fine...but a leather option would be great too! I just love the idea of a bag that can be carried different ways.

Finally a taller version of the Lorca with a detachable cbody strap. I'd like to see the Koko...just discovered it, and it's cute!

I LOVE the Nackie in Teak!
 
HHello, HHhotties!

I have some great new product pics to share...so excited when I came into the studio today!

The Nackie in green is here & we are flipping over the color. We ended up running it in the shrunken lamb, and found this great color that we're calling 'Minty':

HH Style Blog post on our general manager, Ashley Mikoletic, with her new Trophy Satchel in tan/black. LOVE her cozy winter look...how does she always manage to look so pulled-together. I feel kind of slobby today & not ready to unpack from our Holiday travels (ha): http://blog.haydenharnett.com/2012/01/new-year-style-with-our-trophy-satchel.html
 
your wish is my command (of course i'm totally prancing around the office in a fur hat rocking the new nackie):

here are some pics of our new 'minty' nackie darling...happy new year to me! the color is changeable in different light sources...nothing i love more than a moody leather <3

Yahahahahmeeeeee!!!:D

Thanks so much Toni. That is one gorgeous bag. I'd be prancing around with that bag too, fur hat and all!!:p
Amazing how the lighting can make it look different. Everyone needs a "Mood Bag". Much better than a Mood Ring!!:graucho:
 
Can we mind-meld, Toni?

OK..seriously though, it's part of a geek variation on "rock paper scissors" that's been around for at least twenty years that I know of because I played it with many of my more "interesting" students. It's recently been popularized on "The Big Bang Theory". The rest, will be transmitted if we can indeed mind meld.

Spock trumps all!
