minimalistic

22 April 2011 by Carolina Engman

STREETS. As much as I love accessories, sometimes less is more. Yesterday I decided to go for a very minimalistic outfit to let my satchel shine on it’s own (he he). And, let’s just say that you know your bag is really bright when everyone around you puts on their sunglasses, mission accomplished! ;)
I have a little surprise in store for you that I’ll let you know more about on Sunday, until then, have a great weekend evereyone!!

Zara Blazer. Pucci Sunglasses. Zara Blouse. Cambridge Satchel (13″ yellow fluorescent). Bik Bok Jeans. F21 shoes.

Loxie Shillingstad on 9 August 2016 at 18:17 said:

Revelation! A few years ago, your photos inspired me to include neon handbags in my boutique – I used your photo from Polyvore to create a set and hopefully inspire others. (I carried a “designer inspired” version of your bag and had never heard of Cambridge Satchel.) Fast forward to today – I was checking out the Cambridge Satchel website, as I just returned from a trip to the UK and spent some time in Cambridge. I recognized the bag and rechecked your photos – sure enough – your bag was from Cambridge Satchel:) I guess the moral of the story is this – great design ideas that inspire us, stay with us. And, if I had not traveled to Cambridge, I would not have made the connection. I love that city and I will be back:)
