Dior: Classic Saddle & Lady Dior bag + Lambskin woven bag

The Saddle bag & Lady Dior bag are my favourite series from Dior, simply because they are really unique & distinctive of Dior. Unlike some other designs, they do not carry any "shadows" of bags from other series or brands. I see them as the 2 revolutional designs in the Dior timeline!

I simply love the distinctive shape of the "saddle", which coincidentally resembles the letter "D"!
This shape is truly feminine & dainty, and the strategically placed "D" charm at the centre of the bag just emphasized on the slim sihouette & adds a touch of ultimate sophistication! It also has an internal zip pocket & a back pocket with a magnetic snap button where you can stash some loose papers etc. However, sad to say, the Saddle bag has already been discontinued... Hope Dior will bring it back someday!!!

This is the Saddle bag from the Flight series. Totally in love with the unique "Remove before flight" orange tag & matching orange shoulder strap! The colour combination of the navy denim monogram & the orange hue is absolutely fabulous & really brings out the casual & relaxed look, totaly fitting into the "Flight" theme! Just imagine the sunny beach & blue sea! (Flight makeup collection)

As for the Lady Dior bag, it was made famous by Princess Diana & has been the classic ever since.
The squarish shape gives the bag a chic look & the "D-I-O-R" letter-charms enhances the cute factor. Nevertheless, due to it's timeless design, it is suitable for evening wear & functions. A truly worthy investment! (Lady Dior makeup miniature & Cannage palettes)

However, for a more casual look, I think nothing can fit the bill better than the Woven bag design!
Due to the lambskin material, the entire bag is way lighter than the Lady Dior bag but is equally chic as it also comes with the signature "D-I-O-R" charms. For a fuss-free look, pair up with jeans & you are ready to go!
