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.
