The Gucci Blondie Takes New York
On an unusually warm fall day, I ventured out with the Small Gucci Blondie Top Handle in my downtown NYC neighborhood. While the bag's aesthetic is crucial, its versatility is equally important.
This bag strikes the perfect balance between casual and sleek, transitioning seamlessly from day to night, aligning with my dynamic personal style. The Blondie bag’s practicality is evident, making it an ideal choice for my lifestyle.

As someone always on the move, I appreciate the bag’s longer strap for hands-free convenience, alongside the elegant top handle. My outfit is a typical mix of casual and chic, complemented by gold Repetto ballet flats.
Drawing inspiration from Gucci's past collaborations with Adidas, I paired baggy jeans with a vintage Adidas windbreaker, bought at a flea market in Paris. This ensemble feels authentically New York and quintessentially me.
The Gucci Blondie Takes Miami
Hi, it’s Megs!
Blue has always been my favorite color, particularly shades like baby blue, grey-blue hues, pastels, and sometimes cobalt. Blue is both calming and beautiful to me.
This Gucci Blondie in Blue Suede captivated me instantly. The combination of color and material drew me in. Gucci's archival-revival movement resonates deeply with me, and this bag is a perfect embodiment of that spirit.

The prominent Round Interlocking G logo adds a special touch reminiscent of the disco era. The blue suede and leather create a dimensional and rich look.
For fall and winter, I’m drawn to statement-color bags, and this one is perfect for my winter wardrobe. The suede hints at colder seasons, and the color suits my South Florida home.
I opted for the medium size for daily use, as it offers more space for my essentials. My style often combines brown and blue hues, so pairing a casual brown dress with this bag fits perfectly. Sneakers complete the look, as they are my go-to for comfort and style.
This bag masterfully balances dressy and structured with casual and wearable elements. As a lifelong Gucci enthusiast, the Blondie Bag is now on my wish list.
