Today was my Lucky Day! I got a fantastic gift from the folks at Lucky Style Spotter as a finalist in the Summer Brights Contest. I scored this fantastic summer bag from Lacoste, just in time for some (hopefully) sunny weather.
I am now in love with my New Sorbonne Hobo bag, part of the Spring/Summer 09 Sportswear range. My bag is in raspberry nylon and is lined in grey jersey. There’s a huge front pocket and lot of pockets inside for a phone, keys, shades and other summer essentials. Despite it’s compact size, it holds a ton. I even managed to fit an A4 folder and a bunch of materials collected at a conference.
I’m a huge fan of the preppy Lacoste brand and am chuffed to have won the gator-brand bag, retailing at $110.
Here’s my winning look.
The mission: Accessorize with brights to bring your wardrobe into the Spring.
The aproach: LBD paired with a bold yellow ruffled cardigan, bright blue clutch, gold dangly disc earings, purple tights and scarf. All the colours have the same black-toned hue, so it’s not too over the top on clown-like colour.

[...] a bit of secondhand nostalgia too. I paired the dress with my favourite grey flats and bright pink Lacoste hobo bag. This outfit will make repeat appearances for sure! Thanks Market Publique and Lu-Owl [...]
