Style Remix + Celine Handbag

I am not always one to go for matching looks. I find it cheesy, or even tacky when overdone. But if you can ace it, you could end up with a pretty fabulous outfit that can easily catch the eye even with minimal styling. This look, however, was not premeditated. It was at the last minute that I decided to grab a blazer to layer my dress (which I've already featured here) and it matched the color of my handbag.


If the dress looks somewhat familiar, it's because I've featured that here. But the dress is not the focal point of this outfit. It's the bag! It's one of my new ones that I purchased from Celine. The sea green color was of the same hue as my blazer that I used to give a dressed up look to this casual flared dress. I love the minimalist touch of the outfit but it has enough color to catch the eye, too.

Any new purchase that you were quite happy with?

  21. Oh I think matching can be great when done so tastefully as you've done here. Especially when it means matching an accessory. I think it ties the two together very well. Drooling over your bag!
