The coolest bag of the day is by none other than Olivier Theyskens, who has made me re-examine Theory in a whole new way. Look at this bag! Does this say "Theory," of the simple V-neck sweaters and black trousers, to you? Certainly not, but it's equally wearable. I had my doubts from the photos on the internet and had...
