The Bags and Style of the 2016 Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic

A couple years ago, we attended our first Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic in NYC, and it was one of those experiences you don’t forget. This year, Vlad headed back to NYC to shoot the event again (I had serious FOMO back in Florida), and from what he shared and the photos I saw, it was another one of those pinch-me-is-this-real kinds of days.

While we love sharing the bags people carry, it’s more fun to see the ensembles put together for an event like this. Everyone goes all out, wearing outfits you’d rarely see elsewhere, including massive hats, dapper suits and sundresses in soft shades that you rarely see as part of NYC’s style landscape. If you want to order a bottle of the iconic and highly loved Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Champagne, you can do so on Amazon for $65. Delve into the world of Champagne, rosé and polo in our photos below!

Oh my, that Dior…. Makes me sigh 🙂

memsy

Do you know which Dior bag that is?

Biogirl

Me too!!! So lovely.

Megs Mahoney Dusil

RIGHT?!

shueaddict

Fab fab fab fantabulous !!! The pics are awesome … Made my night.

Megs Mahoney Dusil

So happy to hear you loved it!

Charlie

I would much prefer this kind of post than the ones featuring non-celebrity celebrities with their bags…

Immodest Goddess

Agreed. I really enjoyed this post.

Megs Mahoney Dusil

Which celebrities do you like?

Holly Stanton

Celebrities aren’t all that fashionable that’s why they have stylists. Street style and fashionable non celebs are more creative and inspiring.

Sparkletastic

For me it’s more of which ones I’m sick of seeing. Any Kardashian / reality star makes my eyes roll back in my head.

I’d prefer seeing real people (aspirational real people are fine!) styling their bags.

Jen

I’d love to see more topics on staffers like the one you did for Lucky Mag or something similar. A working group of fashion savvy professionals is much more fun and inspiring than the usual celebrities. Plus more in depth interviews / favorite things list are fun too. Or maybe a peek inside someone’s handbag collection? I love it all! Thank you Purse Blog. 😉

Megs Mahoney Dusil

We have a new group coming next week for you!

maria pepa gomez

Bianca Brandolini and Delfina Blaquier too

maria pepa gomez

Sofía Sánchez de Betak is someone to have an eye on. She’s an art director

Amazona

Looks great! And a breath of fresh air. The only thing – did you notice the woman with the Micro Peekaboo? And her man next to her, with his hands full of stuff; 2 phones, papers etc. Made me chuckle a little. 😀 Why on earth does anyone carry a bag like that when it’s no use..?

Olivia J.

I think she is Steve Harvey’s daughter!

Claire

Just making sure you guys are aware that “her man” is Floyd Mayweather lol

Smiley1

Sorry but that’s not Floyd Mayweather. It looks nothing like him other than the same skin tone.

Vlad Dusil

Oh wow, I think you may be right.

c.Miller

LOL!!!!!! Too funny, I didn’t even realize it was him!

Megs Mahoney Dusil

Ha, ya that bag legit fits so little. I know with what I need to carry I could never get away with that bag, but guess she really liked it!

Amazona

Looks like she’s carrying a coin purse as a crossbody. :’D A good way to counter the size of the bag would be to wear something with big pockets. Like, HUGE. Army combat pants anyone?

Bir

LOVED THE POST MORE OF THIS PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Megs Mahoney Dusil

For sure! Will go to more events to share what we see!

kemilia

I want some of those yellow sunglasses! And a flute of champagne, of course. I thoroughly enjoyed this post, much better than the celeb posts.

Megs Mahoney Dusil

So glad to hear that!! We will def keep it in mind and see what other events we can attend to cover and share with you all!

missarewa

Megs Mahoney Dusil

I know, I keep going back to that post!!

Phara Estime McLachlan

Loved all the bright summer colors. Loved the LVs, Chloe, and orange Gucci. Very much enjoyed this post.

Rashmi

All the pics are so beautiful that I felt I was there myself! Such is the effect of Vlad’s photography skills! The blue Chloe bag against that printed dress! What a great combo! Loved all the bags featured here!

Megs Mahoney Dusil

I told Vlad we need more of his photos!!

Chloe Georgia took my breath away!so beautiful!!!!so underrated!!!

lavinia

This is my favorite post that you guys have ever done! What glorious colors everyone has on.

Megs Mahoney Dusil

So happy to hear that! Will need to find more fabulous events for ourselves to attend and cover for you all!

Brooke Resnick

Megs, what is that beige YSL crossbody on the woman with the black/white dress? Thank you!

Megs Mahoney Dusil

It’s this bag! On sale right now on NM in black, looks really nice : http://bit.ly/1UnCW7m

Brooke Resnick

YAY! Real people. (I mean everyday folk) I loved the pics Vlad, nicely done.

abigail

events like this bring out the most stylishly handsome men 😉

jenjen

The handbags comes to life in each photo and everyone looks beautiful! Love!!!

Lisa

Who makes the blue bag in photo #5? It’s on the woman with her back to the camera wearing blue/yellow print dress — she’s in the middle of three women — the one on the right is wearing black/white stripes. Thanks; great post!!

Megan

It looks like a Hermes bag based on the logo above the clasp but I could be wrong.

LG

I’m dying to know what that bag is too!

CatR

I love the orange LV bag and the orange Gucci! Such perfect colors for this event! This was a great post, more like this please!

EliCaroline

Pretty colors. I love all of these bags. Great post. I love seeing “bags in the wild” on regular people.

Susan

Would have been helpful if you put a caption under each photo with the name of the bag.
But great shots—my fav is the black on against the print dress. Is it Dior?

Susan

Please identify the bags in each photo…we need to know!!!

Jerri R

I thought the chairs were by Chanel 🙂

Susan

Do you realize that you have MISSPELLED Veuve Clicquot ?

Jess

Really beautiful photos. The colours are impressive. Great bags too 🙂
