WIW: Cold Shoulder Top with Elliot Lucca Handbag

Seeing MaryK use the Elliot Lucca handbag from NAS, I decided it was high time to break out mine! I've paired this beautiful bag with my white jeans, psychedelic cold shoulder dolman sleeve top and neutral peep toe booties. I've added my vintage pink Bakelite bangle for another pop of colour - like I needed one with this top (lol)!

So what do you think? Does this combination work? Proportions ok? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Top: Laura Petite
Jeans: Jeanne Bekker
Shoes: Boutique 9
Handbag: Elliot Lucca
Bangle: vintage

    Shannon,
    You are my proportions inspiration. I re-discovered 'petites' this summer after a very long time (don't ask why because I don't know!) and I'm having a blast trying out new clothes that fit me! And then.... I check out your outfits to see how to do it right!
    You look fantastic today - those colors are wonderful!

    You look so sophisticated with that top and bag together! I love this outfit, and I can't believe you're just now breaking out the bag. I love the size and shape of it, like a small briefcase. So chic!

    I have to run to a meeting, but looks great Shannon!

    Wowza! Love it all.

  • JR replied 11 years ago

    Why do you live on the other side of the country? I want to go shopping with you...

    Have you bought much Jeanne Dekker? I tend to like her style even if she does do the Too Much Black thing.

    This is fab! And I love the fluffy little tail in #2!

    Stunning!Great debut for the bag, and those boutique9 always do their job well :)

  • Jem replied 11 years ago

    That is a great outfit! I love your new bag and it goes perfectly with your fab outfit!!

    Good morning. You look so bright and cheery and a smile to die for. Is that Gain's furry tail I see? Ruthe

    Krista - I'm so glad that you're rediscovering petites and how fab they fit us "vertically challenged" ladies! I'm flattered that my outfits provide you with some inspiration. Thank you.

    Claire - I was wanting to save the handbag for fall since that's what my NAS purchases were for but I kept seeing how fab it looked with MaryK's outfits and I just couldn't wait any longer!

    JR - c'mon over anytime and we can go shopping! These jeans are actually the first Jeanne Bekker item I've purchased and I'm really impressed with them. They wash like a dream and seem to be keeping their shape really well. Unfortunately she doesn't do any petites so my choices are limited with her line. But I wouldn't hesitate to buy from her again.

    Celia - these Boutique 9's were tough to get comfy at first but they are definitely now one of my pairs of "go to" shoes. They work with everything.

    Ruthe - yep, Gain's tail as he walked by during photo taking time. He always wants to be the star (lol)!

  • JR replied 11 years ago

    Do you have any idea how many years it's been since I've been to Winnipeg? *sigh* Flying over it doesn't count. (Why was I thinking Transcona was in Alberta???)

  • JulieJohn replied 11 years ago

    Super killer-riffic! Love the colors in that top, Shannon!

  • jayne replied 11 years ago

    I love every single item in this outfit, how they look on you and just brighten a day. That top is such a perfect dreamy blend of color and you have styled it like a pro. lovely shannon

  • catgirl replied 11 years ago

    Shannon, this is just groovy fantasticness! I love it. Did you wear this to work? I'm curious about the cold shoulder look at work if so.

  • Transcona Shannon replied 11 years ago

    Thanks Julie, Jayne and Una!

    Yep - wore it to work Una. Because the part of the shoulder is wide enough for my bra strap not to show at all, I felt it was ok. And the opening in the upper arm is actually only comes to the middle of my upper arm - so I don't feel too exposed.
