Easy Ryder

A dripping wet, white bikini may be a Bond girl’s way to people’s hearts.

But you’re still mastering domination with jeans and a T-shirt.

For looks that kill with slightly more coverage, check out Honey Ryder, a new Hayes Valley boutique honoring the sultry style of the original 007 beauty.

Deep plum tones, a sheepskin rug, and a wall of paneled mirrors outside the dressing rooms inspire pistol-packing poses. Sleek, tailored looks from Black Halo mingle with clingy jersey tops from Clu, Cyn, and Si’en, while a satin and ribbon number by Michelle Jonas is 100 percent Octopussy material.

And the shop’s accessories — including Blinde shades, Kim White recycled leather bags, and edgy baubles by Lisa Levine and Melissa Joy Manning — make great weapons for any 007 situation.

Like, say, getting Dr. No to say yes.


Honey Ryder, 564 Hayes Street, between Octavia and Laguna Streets (415-255-6858).
