ON TREND: The Transparent Bag

THE OUAI / LOEWE PUZZLE BAG / CHANEL MULTI-COLOR FLAP BAG / OFF-WHITE X HERON PRESTON / HERMES VINYL KELLY BAG / CHANEL MULTI-COLOR FLAP BAG / BUILDING BLOCK BROWN CLEAR BAG

---

Surprisingly, I'm really loving this transparent bag trend!

It's a super fun take on some classic styles like the Chanel flap bag and the Hermes Kelly. The price point is way more agreeable as well so if you're looking for a new bag for spring without dropping a huge dollar on it, this would be a great option! Although, I have listed the Chanels in here which are still at a very Chanel-y price tag (ugh), but they were way too pretty not to include. In the picture above, I love how Leandra Medine of Man Repeller doubled up on bags by mixing a color inside a clear. Looks great aesthetically and might give you a bit more privacy if you don't love showing off everything you carry in your purse. 

What are your thought!? Do you love the Transparent bag or is it too 'exposed'?

Other Options:

Urban Outfitters / Staud / TopShop / Zara / Zara / Madewell

All That Sparkles feat. Céline

SPARKLES CHAIN NECKLACE IN STRASS AND BRASS WITH SILVER FINISHING 5,600.00 USD

I'm really excited about Céline's new website update. The fashion house has always had a pretty beautiful site with minimal photography and stunning product shots but it's a tad bit different now. It may not look super different to the viewer in United States but if you're shopping via France, you may now purchase products on their site. Insane! Is this Phoebe Philo's doing? or why she might be leaving? Who knows. All I know is that it could be one step closer into an online shop that ships to the US. Although they aren't yet, it doesn't stop me from viewing all their products and getting ideas from how they style their wardrobe pieces.

After browsing for a bit I found this stunning Sparkles Chain Necklace that needs no Kira Kira to shine bright. Can't say I can understand that price tag though (it's made of brass, silver, and crystals - ouch!) Whatever, it's Celine, right?!

New Shapes, Classic Monogram feat. Louis Vuitton

Loving the new wave of classic monogramed Louis Vuitton bags but in some quirky new styles. The cube bag with the metal chain is such an amazing purse. I love the geometric form with the chain detail plus the light and dark brown on opposing sides. Seriously, perfect! Sadly, I'm not sure when these will be available but I can tell you I'll be refreshing their website until they are!

A Case For The Puffer Coat.

Honestly, I was never a fan of puffer coats. Something about them always made me feel very childish. Maybe it's because that's all a wore growing up in snowy Colorado. Layers of sweaters and a huge Michelin Man style puffer with mitten gloves. 

When I started getting more into style, I switched to long parkas and peacoats. Nothing made me feel more chic than an all black men's style peacoat with a chunky black turtleneck underneath. Don't get me wrong - I still wear this look, but when it drops to under 20 degrees a peacoat doesn't seem like enough. 

So, here we are. Exploring the idea of puffer coats and I have to say I'm really loving the options that are out there now. These shiny black short ones are my favorite at the moment. Kind of boyish and edgy. I'm also loving the idea of the shiny silver with black details. Imagine treading through the snow with this glistening beauty on? Loooove it!

Currently Loving: The White Boot Trend

"Never wear white after Labor Day." Well, rules are meant to be broken, right? Especially when it comes to shoes! I really love the look of a white boot, it's definitely not subtle but not super dramatic either, just the right amount of 'cool'. A perfect addition to your Fall wardrobe.

Would you wear white boots this season?
