Alexander Wang Bags: Cream Dreams

I have fallen head over heels in love with these two creamy, white bags designed by Alexander Wang. I am considering getting one, as I have been searching for a nice, white bag for a while now. And what better time to get one now for the summer?! I really like the bronze corner details of the Jade Stingray, Leather and Suede wristlet bag (photo no. 1), but I am also weak for the studded bottom of the Lia Sling studded leather messenger bag (photo no.2). Ahh, which one to choose?

Kate Moss for Longchamp S/S 2011

I have been meaning to post this video for the longest time, and many of you might have seen it already. For Longchamp's S/S 2011 collection, Kate Moss has, along with the French company, put together a range of handbags for the summer season. As a part of this collection, photographer Alasdair McLellan has directed this gorgeous 70s inspired video featuring Kate Moss. After seeing this, I desperately want hair like Kate's. How perfect wouldn't this kind of boho-chic hair be for summer?!

Alasdair McLellan has also shot some beautiful photos of Kate Moss and the Longchamp bags. I am loving the bag in the 2nd photo - the white and brown leather satchel. But then every bag looks great when Kate Moss is wearing it.

Summer Must-Have: The Yellow Bag

As we have just seen the end of the easter celebrations, there is no doubt when saying that yellow is one of the most current colours at the moment. However, fashion-lovers won't be quick to leave this trend behind as it was one of the most exciting colours on the runway for the S/S 2011 collections. All shades of the colour were represented on the catwalk; from a pale, creamy yellow at Chanel to a bolder and brighter shade at Christian Dior.

Swedish blogger, Angelica Blick, has picked up this trend, and showed off a gorgeous yellow bag on her blog a few days back, teaming it with a simple and chic outfit. The bag (and the outfit!) has been on my mind ever since I lay eyes on it.

The bag is from Zara, and can be used both as a clutch and a shoulder-bag. Perfect for making an elegant outfit so much more exciting! If you're not too keen on yellow, the bag is also in the colours red, green and blue.

Do you like this trend? Will you be purchasing something yellow for summer?

Bright Neon

When I was in London last week, I took several trips to Urban Outfitters in Oxford Street. Some of the first pieces that I noticed were the satchel bags by the Cambridge Satchel Company, as seen in the collage. They didn't have this neon yellow in when I was there. Instead they had the colours neon pink, neon orange and a darker purple with yellow detailing. Unfortunately, I didn't treat myself to one, and now, when I am back home, I am kicking myself for not doing so. It would look so, so good with the pieces in the collage below. Perfect for summer!

One Way To Wear Wang

When I visited New York back in September, I treated myself to a black Coco Duffel bag by Alexander Wang. Every time I wear it, I feel like royalty. It perfects every outfit, and I never grow tired of using it. It's as though it's my little baby.

I love it when the bag pops up on streetstyle photographs, allowing me to get inspired to wearing it in different ways. This photo from Stockholm streetstyle is so refreshing. The contrast between the black and the nude leather jacket by Céline is excellent. Also this photo reminds me that I need to get myself the YSL arty ring (seen on her right hand). I just know that it belongs on my finger.
