If you’re going to be attending any weddings in the coming months, it may well be that with concerns about social distancing, travel and public gatherings in general, the couple may have decided to either have a smaller, lower-key wedding to begin with or may have changed their plans for a larger event to something more on the intimate and chic end. This type of wedding can be just as glamorous and romantic as a large event, and for the guests, it is definitely a chance to go to a wonderful celebration at a time when our social lives are not really at their most active.
If you’re going to be a guest at a small, classy wedding this fall, you may well be itching to shop for a beautiful new outfit for the occasion, complete with all the accessories! Here, we’re going to take a look at some of the latest bags from the current line by Saint Laurent – a brand of the famous French designer fashion house Yves St Laurent – which are ideal for adding that finishing touch to your sophisticated wedding guest look.
Crocodile Cassandra Bag
For fall and winter, croc bags can give a luxurious and decadent look that will always exude chic, making for a nice textural alternative to leather. The Cassandra bag by Saint Laurent is a classic shape and style with the designer’s iconic logo on the clasp, and it’s a perfect choice in the medium-sized option for everything you need for a wedding that is going to take place throughout the day and evening. The crocodile version of the Cassandra bag by Saint Laurent is available in a choice of colors, so if you want to add some color to your wedding guest outfit – for instance, if you are going for a little black or white dress and would like to add some tasteful color in your accessories, then choosing an option like the deep green one will certainly make for a stylish overall look. You can also get this bag in black, however, which pairs well with subtle prints.
You can find all of the different variants of the Cassandra bag, including the crocodile Saint Laurent bags, at SSENSE. They carry the latest lines by the biggest names in fashion, so as well as picking up a Saint Laurent bag here, you should also be able to find everything else you need to pull together a showstopping outfit for the wedding.
Kate Tassel Bag
If you like a small, slender bag for special occasions, then the Kate tassel bag by Saint Laurent is a good choice. The small-sized versions of this bag are small enough to give a dainty, evening look ideal for a wedding dinner, but there is still enough room inside for more than just your invite, unlike with a lot of evening bags that can feel like they’re purely for decoration and can’t fit your essentials, let along a few extra things you might want in order to refresh your hair, make-up, and perfume throughout the wedding. The design of this bag manages to be simple enough to pair with all kinds of outfits, from suits through to evening dresses, while still having enough detail with the tassel and YSL logo detail to look pretty and well crafted. You may buy this bag just for this wedding, but you’re bound to find that you have lots of opportunities to use it, and it will never go out of fashion!
Small Sunset Bag With Chain
The Sunset bag is another classic shape from Saint Laurent, which has a structured feel and a rectangular shape. There are different variants you can choose from, including different sizes and the option to have a handle on the top as well as the shoulder chain. It is really down to how much you want to carry and whether you prefer to wear a bag on your shoulder or carry it in your hand as to which design will work best for you, however, for use with formal outfits it is often best to go for the smallest option you need. The chain shoulder strap on this bag adds an elegant bit of metallic detail which also gives this bag a really high-end look, and can mean it looks great with outfits where you wouldn’t normally want a leather strap over your shoulder, for instance, halterneck or spaghetti strap dresses and tops.
These are just some of the gorgeous bags you can find in the current collection from Saint Laurent, but it is well worth browsing the full selection, as there are all kinds of subtle variations on these bags as well as other beautiful styles to choose from!
