Snidel 2013 Lucky Bag Contents

As promised Snidel 2013 lucky bag contents! This year there were two colour choices - A and B, I bought type A. I am very much obsessed with casual yet elegant and feminine Snidel style (and pretty much with all MashStyleLab fashion creations) so I did a bit of research from what collections did the lucky bag items come from (or most similar to) and will provide the links to the official webstore for better detail pictures.

There were five items in the bag - outer, onepiece, top, bottom and stole. All of the items are exceptional quality, just as expected. The bag itself was large zipped tote made of non-woven material and was the only item that had tag attached.



Outer piece was this amazingly soft faux mouton duffel coat (or duffle coat, seems like both spellings are acceptable) in Black. When I saw the first reveals I thought: "Argh... I don't like this coat a bit" :(  It turned out it's just not that photogenic because in person and when worn it looks really cute, and did I mention how soft it is? This duffel coat is from Snidel 2010 winter collection and type B bags had the same coat in greyish beige (honestly, I'm not too sure how to describe that other colour). I ended up really liking this coat and actually kind of glad that I got black one (though looking at first reveals I thought that lighter coat is much cuter). I just got light beige Cecil McBee duffel coat not so long ago and I would had to choose between them.


Just like my Liz Lisa boston bag, Snidel lucky bag also had peplum cardigan in it!The style is from 2012 fall collection  but neither of lucky bag cardi colours were offered in store.  The one I got (A) was beige, and type B was dark grey. It's a shame peplum doesn't look good on me because this cable knit cardigan is really cute. It seems to be very warm as well. I just sold it on eBay but Liz Lisa peplum is still available! Both cardis are sold :)


One-piece item was angora knit dress (even though I wouldn't call it a dress, more like a long sweater). The style is from 2011 fall collection. I am not too sure about what colour type B bags had, it might be the same as type A (ivory) because that's how it looks at some pictures or maybe it was light pink shade since that's how it looks on other pics. This sweater features slightly puffy 3/4 sleeves and V-neck cut. I absolutely love it! It's so lovely and goes with almost anything. It's nylon/angora blend so it's really warm as well!





Yet another peplum piece in the bag was jacquard peplum skort. It's similar to this 2012 fall collection style with the only difference being that different patterns of the jacquard fabric were used. Type A was in pinkish beige and type B in black. Skort has a zipper and elastic waist, it's a bit short but really adorable!


Finally, the last piece is a gorgeous extra soft and large stole. It was challenging to find the most similar style because well, pretty much all stoles look alike but the details of the lucky bag stole (fringe and edge finish) looks most like this 2011 fall collection stole. Type A bags had the stole in cream and type B had it in greyish blue colour. The stole is really large and as cozy and warm as a blanket. I just got white stole for Christmas and was thinking of selling this one but as soon as I got it out of the package, I just couldn't part with it.


  And last picture is angora sweater - peplum skort coordinate :) I already can't wait for the next year lucky bags! I don't know exactly what brand bags I'll be able to get next year but I'm considering Snidel (of course!), gelato pique, Rojita, minirdees and Liz Lisa. Oh well, but with the shipping they'll  probably gonna cost a fortune :( Really wish Tenso started shipping with regular mail and not only EMS because I don't mind waiting longer if that means paying a lot less!
