New in: Neon yellow bag & tricolor clutch

23 June, 2012

Those of you who follow me on Facebook, already know that I went shopping again this week! This time I didn’t come home empty-handed, but brought home with me, 2 beautiful bags! I was actually looking for a clutch to go perfectly with my dress and shoes for my cousin’s wedding, and the other just caught my eye, when passing out of a shop. Couldn’t leave it behind! After all, neon is my latest trend obsession.

 Its tag, says Motel, but I have honestly never heard of the brand. It’s made in Italy though, so I trust it to be a good and high quality product.

It’s actually neon yellow, but it can look neon lime in some pics. Its hardware has a light gold/rose gold color.

The clutch is tricolored, with 2 hues of blue and light mint green.

It’s quite long and has a strap, which is detachable, and I’m going to remove it for the wedding. It wasn’t what I had in mind, as it’s not very formal, but I didn’t find anything better…The colors were really different, and as it’s a formal event of one of my closest relatives, I didn’t want to mix too many colors together. Plus, it’s an island wedding, and I don’t want many looks on me…People in small communities, tend to gossip a lot. I bought it from Doca, in case anyone’s interested.

I think it goes perfectly with my shoes! And the third color of the bag, is actually exactly the same as the one of my dress. I was searching for a mint clutch to have some contrast, but I was extremely unlucky!

I’m keeping the dress as a surprise as I’m hoping to take outfit pics before the wedding.

What do you think of my new bags? Tell me your opinion!

  3. That was amazing! I loved the neon bag, so I started considering buying one! But it’s a handbag, right? I tend to wear shoulder bags…
    The clutch is fantastic! Couldn’t match your shoes better! I loved both together! And yes, I’m eager to see the whole outfit, you are number one when choosing wedding outfits!
    I know what you mean, when people start looking at us in such a way, as if we came from Mars. But then what is better? To be well dressed or under dressed? Well dressed, of course! And just because we have our styles, people tend to say we are “strange, eccentric, over dressed”. No way!
    Yes, on an island, not Crete, but a small community, they would look at a very well dressed girl as “extravagant”.
    But don’t mind them too much! Please, think that your readers love you the way you style yourself and that we are eager to see the new outfit!
    Filakia polla!!!!!!!!!!

    • I’m glad you liked it Denise! I thought about buying another color, since the neon trend won’t stay forever, but I finally decided to buy this one, since I loved it!
      Yes it’s a handbag! Its straps are not long enough to be a shoulder bag! It is good for a few hours, but if you walk a lot then you definitely need a shoulder bag, or a messenger bag (these are my favorites)!
      I’ll try to take as many photos as possible from the island, since I haven’t been there for many years…Shame on me! I’m really excited about this trip…
      I don’t worry that I’ll be overdressed, but I’m not sure how they’d take the whole color-blocking trend…I didn’t want my outfit to seem too much! In weddings, I want to be elegant…Modern, but still respectful, and elegant.
      Filakia polla Denise!!!!! 🙂

    • Hey Amanda! I got the neon yellow bag last summer from a local shop in Thessaloniki, Greece. The brand is “Motel”, but other than that I couldn’t find anything else online.
