What feels like eons ago, I was introduced to the Gucci Soho Disco Bag, and that bag quickly became one of my most beloved bags and a bag that, at times, you couldn’t walk a city block without seeing someone else carrying as well. There are so many reasons that the bag was a great success, and now, the Gucci Blondie aims to follow up the Soho Disco’s success story.
The evolution of the brand and the design only makes sense that there is an update on this bag, but fear not, many elements remain. The reason this bag is so versatile and adored stems from its usability, functionality, and surprisingly spacious interior.
New Design Elements
Part of the Gucci Blondie Family, the Gucci Blondie Small Shoulder Bag gives you that soft, rectangular camera style bag with the round Interlocking leather G on the front. This GG design originates from the House’s archives, which the brand has continued to pull from to offer that feeling of historical codes.
Aside from that, the bag also features diagonal stitching across the front, giving a nice finishing touch. The side tassel detail will feel like a Deja Vu because it is. The shoulder strap is adjustable with a 21.4″ drop, allowing crossbody wear.
What Fits
I think one of the elements of this bag that sells me the most is how seemingly compact yet entirely spacious it truly is. Dimensions are 8.3″W x 6.1″H x 3.1″D, and the bag feels entirely light, which means daily carrying isn’t a pain (literally).
As you can see from this photo, my daily items fit easily inside, including a sunglasses case with sunglasses, a small wallet, my kid’s meds, my phone, lipsticks, snacks, and other small items. For a life on the go, a bag like this will be one you will grab often.
