Long layers // Linen duster cardigan + Céline Belt bag

The Céline Belt bag is one of the most underrated styles in the designer purse world. Extra Petite shares this minimalist, sharp, and lightweight bag.

CELINE BELT BAG

In the world of designer handbags, Chanel was my first love and will always be timeless. However, I have to admit, the Céline corner of my collection has been getting the most wear over recent years! Their classic box bag or luggage tote up the chic factor of any outfit, and if I had to pick another favorite, it’d be the belt bag which I first reviewed here. This latter bag in my opinion is one of the most underrated styles in the designer purse world – the design is minimalist and sharp, it’s fairly lightweight for Céline, and the style is convertible and functional (can be worn on the shoulder, cross-body, or hand-held as shown below). Yet somehow, I almost never see anyone around town toting this style!

For today’s partnership with Rebag, I borrowed this gorgeous pre-owned Céline belt bag in the “micro” size from their inventory to feature. It’s in pristine condition and petite-proportioned, in an elegant combination of neutral pebbled leather with light gold hardware. If I didn’t already have a few bags in this same color of textured leather, I would’ve definitely bought this beauty at the pre-owned price.

If you’re looking for a different style or brand, Rebag has a big selection of pre-owned designer bags, with new arrivals every week. See my older posts featuring a red Prada bag or a Saint Laurent satchel from their collections. I like that they provide large and clear photos of the actual item for sale, detailed info on condition, and a third-party authentication certificate for each handbag. Since size can be hard to gauge when shopping online, they include measurements as well as a size reference photo of each bag standing next to a shoe (which I find to be quite helpful!). Happy shopping, and let me know if you end up checking anything off your bag wishlist!

    The bag is honestly so chic, and reminds me of the Senreve ones! In case you aren’t familiar, Senreve is a designer handbag company which brings a fashionable edge to a professional lifestyle! It was founded by a woman who graduated from my school, University of Pennsylvania Wharton School of Business and the other went to MIT! Also, I like how the gray denim gives you a sleek, elongated look! Looking forward to more posts 🙂

    Love the outfit! Where is the white top from and what do you wear underneath so your undergarment don’t show? I always have a hard time wearing anything white. What’s your secret?

    Thanks!

    Very stylish outfit as always. Funny how you mention most of your outfit in the title, missing out what I adore most: the shoes. Aren’t they just great? I love the colour and above all the playful touch. Love, Lieske

    I am also wondering where I might find your necklaces. Just about to order the sweater in tan. Love the look….love your style. Thank you.

      Hi Cindy – thank you! I hope you love the sweater! It’s a little pricier than what I was hoping for for a linen cardigan, but it fits nicely and surprisingly elevates basic outfits like this one. The necklaces are from Baublebar – you can find them both linked in this post along with more pics: https://www.extrapetite.com/2016/10/wide-leg-pants-petite.html

    Hi Jean – can you recommend a good spray to protect your designer bags from scratches and water? I had previously bought one from Nordstrom but when I tested it on a navy givenchy bag it left somewhat of a mark (tested bottom of bag); not too noticeable but it’s there.

    • Jean | Extra Petite wrote:

      Hi Aubrey! I think the one that I use is the one you already have … is it the Cadillac brand leather and suede protectant spray? I’m sorry to hear it might’ve left a mark! Unfortunately I can’t be of more help since that’s the only one I’ve recommended.

    Love your style! 🙂 You’re so stylish. I love how you style both high end and affordable clothing! You’re amazing.

    I would love to see how you style riding boots using both pants and dresses. I read a previous blog you had with the Aquatalina riding boots & you inspired me to purchase them. I just adore them. However, I would like suggestions on how to style them in different ways. Would love to see your recommendations. 🙂

      Hi Adriana! Aquatalia boots are amazing … which style and color did you get? Was it the pair from the Nsale?

      I don’t usually wear mine with pants except when commuting in the winter, since it looks a little too equestrian on me that way. I do love mine with skinny jeans or with black tights and and dresses, though. I’ll keep your request in mind for posts later this fall /winter!

    Hi Jean! Can you recommend a comfy tunic length sweater to wear with leggings for at home or running kids to activities? I am the same measurements as you. Just want it to cover my rear and be appropriate for running about…Thanks for any suggestions!
