My New Olive Green Bag - YouLookFab Forum

Hello.

The last time I wore this outfit in this post (My Green Bag Wardrobe Hole) I mentioned the outfit would look really nice with an olive green bag. Especially since I already added green sneakers this season.

Well, I found my bag!

I haven't tried a bucket bag style before but I couldn't resist the striped strap on this Kate Spade Bucket Bag from Nordstrom Rack (I don't see the green color available online anymore but the black, gingerbread, and rose all look lovely https://www.nordstromrack.com/.....ag/7890968).

Since I'm on team "wear right away" I swapped the blue tote from the last time I wore this outfit for the new green bag. I also swapped the olive jacket from last time for a lilac hoodie and untucked the shirt so you could see the hem peeking out from the hoodie. I kept the jeans and sneakers the same as the last time I wore this outfit.

Thanks for looking!

That looks fab Lisa! I am also thinking hard about an olive crossbody bag I have seen with a beautiful strap! And I’m not even a bag person!

Star

Fab Lisa! Lilac and olive is such a good combo, had not realised. Love the shirt peeking out, one of my own favourite stylings. The bag really does make a difference with the shoes. A+

Katerina

The new bag is gorgeous! I love that you chose a bucket model; it’ll give you a nice variety in shape as well. The strap is fabulous, too. I’m really loving this iteration of the olive and lilac outfit—the matching sneakers and bag combo is perfect. It’ll make so many outfits extra fabulous!

Joy

Your new olive green bag is perfect for fall. How do you like the bucket style?

JAileen

I love it - the color, the style, and the strap, especially.

Roberta

I love a bucket bag, and the color of yours is p e r f e c t with that lavender top.

KILLER olive bag! Effectively matched with strap, plaid, and sneakers - and I expected nothing less. Polished and pulled together casual, and rocking it

Love the olive, white and lilac palette on you, Lisa. #1 is stinking cute!

Now you need olive shoes to match the bag.

Love that bag!

Jenni NZ - After seeing how versatile and easy it is to pair my olive pants and olive sneakers with my outfits, an olive bag seemed like a good addition. Plus, I enjoy a bag and shoe compliment. Thanks for looking!

Star - I'm pleasantly surprised at how nice olive and lilac pair together. It's a very pretty combination. If you haven't already, I highly recommend trying it!

Katerina - The bucket style is a fun shape and I'm surprised at how practical it is to use. I'm glad I branched out to something different for me. And I also enjoy a bag and shoe compliment, it really helps to elevate a look when bags and shoes match. And my matchy-matchy gene appreciates it too!

Joy - I am liking the bucket style a lot so far. I don't overfill my bags, so it still sits flat against my hip and is very practical to use. I appreciate how easy it is to get in and out of because of the drawstring closure.

JAileen - The strap was what sold me on the bag, it's so sharp with the two toned coloring. Thanks for looking!

Roberta - *high five for bucket bag love* This is my first bucket bag and I really like it so far. It's a fun shape, but still practical to use.

Angie - The strap on the bag is what sold me on it, I think it will be a great addition to my wardrobe. The olive, lilac, and white palette is one of my favorite's right now. Look at me branching out from blues!

Joy - I agree, I also like a when a bag and shoes match. The bag pairs well with the olive sneakers to my eye. Thanks for looking!

nemosmom - I like this bag too, I think it will be a great addition to my wardrobe. Thanks for looking!

Queen Blue is branching out. The sky is falling!

I have your bag's big sister

We are almost bag triplets, I have the Rosie bag in Enchanted Green with the same strap. It was on the Kate Spade outlet site in early 2023. Mine is the smaller Shoulder Bag.

Jaime

Great with your sneakers and the contrast with the lavender is fab!

cat2, nice! I got mine at the Kate Spade Outlet in New Orleans a few months ago. High five! I love it, and wear it quite a bit to casualize a look.

Angie - Indeed, I've been branching out a lot with colors this season. How fun that you have the big sister version of the bag. That strap looks just as lovely with the ivory bag as it is with the olive bag.

cat2 - I am happy to be bag triplets with you. It's such a fun strap on the bag. And that enchanted green is a gorgeous color!

Jaime - I am very happy to have an green bag and shoe compliment, I think both pieces will get lots of use.

Angie - It's a great bag for a casual vibe! Which of course is right in line with my style, no wonder I liked it when I saw it!

That bag is perfect for you, Lisa. It really makes that outfit sing, too!
