Sometimes it’s the older fashion houses that come up with something new and surprising. Celine is almost always classic and sophisticated, but I am impressed by their more youthful, cheerful approach to design on the Blossom Pocket Tote.
The bold yellow is extraordinary, and I can’t help loving it, despite my stodgy affection for dark colors, because they took things a step farther than bold and coordinated the yellow with a lovely pale grey and then added a dark brown strap. With this combination, I can definitely see this bag popping with some of my favorite dark ensembles.
The pockets on the front of the bag are my favorite detail. They are one part sleek, with the shiny silver hardware and sophisticated design, and two parts adorable with their oversized, full frontal placement. I also really like the small flap top closure with the press stud fastening and the showy clasp.
At 13″ x 9″ x 6″, the Blossom Pocket Tote is great for everyday, not too big to carry, but big enough to hold your PDA, keys, and more than your average daily load of cosmetics. The dual rolled handles have a drop of 5″, which makes them a little too short for your shoulder, but you can always clip the adjustable long strap on if you need to.
Overall, I love the punchy use of color on this bag, and think it fits in well with this Spring’s freshest styles.
