Happy Monday!! So excited to begin October and work on my fall/winter capsule. I recenly had the pleasure of visiting Etienne Aigner office for a sneak peak of their upcoming Spring 2019 collection. I loved the handbags which will be available on january 2019, I'm including photos of a few pieces that have caught my eyes.
Etienne Aigner also gifted me a beautiful sock booties- in cordovan calf suede. The chunky heels makes this booties super comfortable for day to day wear. The athleisure inspired style features a navy patterened strech gore panel with racing stripe at the ankle.
I paired the booties with a navy blue knitted maxi dress which I purchased last year from H&M. I really like the flute sleeves and the backless detail on this dress. It's the perfect dress for a fall date night!
"Aigner shoes and handbags are distinguished by luxurious materials, artisanal craftsmanship, multi-functionality, and signature hardware. Enduring hallmarks include the iconic logo–an “A” refined to resemble a horseshoe–and use of materials such as fine cordovan leathers from Italy and hand-woven textiles."

Today I will be sharing what's in my Gucci Dionysus GG Supreme Mini Bag and how I pack the essentials. I remember the very first bag that my dad bought me when I was 12 years old, it was a mini backpack, and even back then I knew I love mini bags. Many years later, not much has changed whenever I spot a new bag I always go for the size-mini and the crossbody option is an added bonus. I do have a few large totes, which I mostly reach for when I travel but on a daily basis, I prefer the minis. I love having my hands free specially after I had my daughter. I purchased the Gucci Dionysus bag about 1.5 years ago and I haven't stopped using it ever since!
Gucci Dionysus GG Supreme Mini Bag is a structured bag, it has a Beige/ebony GG supreme canvas with taupe suede trim and a textured tiger head spur closure. There is a pocket under the flap it's not that spacious but I can keep some cards or cash. The antique silver-toned chain strap can be worn in multiple ways, it can be worn on the shoulder with 15.5'' drop or it can be worn as a top handle with 9'' drop. It's 7.5'' in width x 6'' in height and 2'' depth. This bag has hand stitched details and hand-painted edges.
At first, I wasn't sure about the monogram canvas but once I've seen the bag in person I quickly fell in love with it. The canvas is only on the exterior and the interior is fully lined with the suede fabric which you can see peeking through the flap and on each side of the bag. I love the suede trimming and the neutral earthy tones make this bag very easy to style. The snap closure is another thing I like about this bag it's nicely secured and it's very easy to open and close. The chain straps can be a little heavy but since the bag is very small and you can only pack a few things it never gets uncomfortable. The grainy texture of the canvas makes this bag very durable. It's scratch resistant and you don't have to worry about color transfer, I've worn this bag during rainy, snowy days and it still looks brand new!
I'm 5' 3 and when I use it as a crossbody it stops right below my stomach which is the perfect length for me. Although it's a trendy bag and it might go out of style in the future but I can still see myself continue to use and love this bag. Gucci Dionysus GG Supreme comes in a few other colors and sizes.
Keep scrolling for close up shots of the bag, how I styled the bag and what fits inside the bag.

As you can see, it's very compact so I just have to be strategic about how I pack the bag so that way I can close it without any issue. The only thing is when the bag is open and if you place it down the weight from the snap closure can lean forward and tip the bag over.
I never carried a full sized wallet I just never felt the need to lug around a huge wallet. I prefer card cases I'm currently using the Chanel card case which is one of my favorite card cases. This card case has been in my collection for years now it's still in the pristine condition, it has 4 pockets if you count the front slot. I like to pack the makeup items in a Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette. My iPhone 7 fits easily in the bag but not when I have the card case and the mini pochette in the bag. I usually keep my phone in my hand or coat pocket so it's never been an issue.
I always carry Lancome Dual Finish Powder compact and blotting sheets so I can touch up throughout the day, which is a must for me since I have very oily t-zone. I'm currently carrying the Fenty Beauty Blotting Paper and it's the cutest little thing ever! I've been loving these two new lip balms I've already reviewed the Kjaer Weis Lip Balm (here). Few other lippies in my bag are NYX Cosmetics Natural lip liner and Tom Ford First Time Lipstick- it's a peachy pink shade with a satin finish. Also in the bag, I have mini YSL Lip Tint Oil no. 5 and Cle De Peau Beaute Radiant Liquid Rouge in the shade 11. I always like to have a hand cream available cause I constantly wash my hands, the one I'm using now is a mini L'occitane Cherry Blossom hand cream. I've recently discovered a new brand Phlur and I'm loving this scent called Hanami it has notes of white florals, fig, hazelnut, and sandalwood.
That's a wrap for my very first What's In My Bag, I always get questions on how I pack my mini bags so I hope you enjoyed a peek into my Dionysus Mini.
What's in your bag? & Which do you prefer- a mini or a large handbag?
Let's connect:
Hey guys i purchased a bright color bag for summer i was really confused i had to choose between rose velours which is a nude ish color and rose Indian which is a deep pink i went with rose Indian.this comes with a removal shoulder strap I'm 5'3 and the straps is perfect for me not too long not too short. I'm happy with my choice its super cute and perfect for summer.i like the size of this bag even though it's small it's perfect for me i'm not a big bag type of girl i love medium to small cross body bags. but i had to search and hunt this bad boy down i got the last one from Macy's but there was some spots on that bag, so i had to exchange & wait blah blah after all the hassle i finally got a brand new one its made in France =D please watch the video for more pictures =)
because of the flash the color looks different but in person its really more of a deep pink color
Hey guys this is going to be a review/haul sort of post.I received this baby as a birthday gift and i loveee it!!! this comes with a long leather strap which i love Im a cross body bag type of girl its hands free hassle free don't get me wrong i love totes and all the other type of handbags but i prefer cross body bags more .its super light comes with a gold color chain it can be carried as a wristlet clutch and as cross body but the chain can't be completely removed .this clutch comes in other prints as well i'm into damier ebene print i feel like this one ages better than the monogram since the leather is treated so i don't have to be so careful with it, who knows i might pick up something in monogram print someday ;D as of now i'm sticking to this print and i'm loving it i can fit my phone,lipstick.lipgloss,lip balm,face powder,blotting sheets and i still have some space to put some money just perfect for when i'm running errands or shopping specially when i'm with my daughter i need my hands free. i can go on and on about this bag i loveee this i think i've said that already haha but theres some cons about this much loved clutch it doesn't have any zipper compartments and the placard can get scratch easily i've had this for 4 and a half month or so and theres already so much scratches other than that its one my fav bag i definitely recommend this clutch.
