It’s My Party (No Tears, I Promise)

 

I’m sooo excited about this up-coming long weekend. I’m definitely heading to the Cape for some rest and relaxation . . . I may even head back to Brown for good old fashioned reunion! In the meantime, I have to make it through these next two days (which, as I look at my calender, may not be such a easy task). Anyway, today I thought I’d write about designer Corrina Paterno’s handbag line, cutely named ONE GIRLS PARTY Corrina  started her design career working for a theater company as a set and costume designer. She also spent fifteen years doing custom upholstery, drapes, and furniture design for her family’s interior design business. She started One Girl’s Party in 2000. The line is inspired by Corrina’s passion for family, gardening, black and white photos, the beach, and (clearly) a great party! It’s cool to see how her costume design experience meshed with her interior design background in this collection

Sac It To Me... One Girl’s Party___

  

 

Designer Corrina Paterno from her O-side studio
THE PARTY LEADER
“In high school I sewed clothes for concert tickets,” says handbag Designer Corrina Paterno. “For James Brown shows and Delfonics shows, I made my friends matching miniskirts and maxi coats.” Years later, she’s still the go-to woman for a must-have flair for your next trip to The Casbah. Oceanside-basedPaterno’s line of bags, aptly named One Girl’s Party, are unapologetically exuberant, employing Pop Art-colored reclaimed straw, strategically placed seashells, and feathers galore. Each bag is one-of-a-kind, and the embroidered,
vintage-flavored Hippie Girl collection is known to sell out within hours of
hitting shop hooks. The Boston-born, S.D.-raised Paterno will soon return
to her apparel-designing roots, with her own clothing collection, named
1964, in the works.
