TOTALLY UNDERRATED: THE CÉLINE BELT BAG
For a moment in time, Céline felt unstoppable. From 2011 to 2013, the brand followed up its smash-hit Luggage Tote with the nearly as popular Trapeze Bag, and it was the kind of one-two punch unseen in the accessories market unseen since the mid-2000s and the Chloé Paddington and Silverado. (Not uncoincidentally, current Céline creative director Phoebe Philo was at Chloé's helm during that time.)
That kind of market-bending success is never replicable in perpetuity, and although Céline has sold tons of bags and enjoyed immense popularity in the intervening years, it sometimes feels like everyone's hoping for some more handbag magic. Personally, I'm not sure why that can't come from the Céline Belt Bag, which has many of the elements that have made the brand's bags consumer favorites in the past.
The Belt Bag debuted about a year ago with the brand's Spring 2015 collection, and although it regularly garners positive comments from readers and I've seen it on the arms of a handful of celebrities and bloggers, I just don't think the design gets its due for how attractive it is. It's great, you guys!
It may not be quite as distinctive as the Luggage Tote or Trapeze Bag, which both showed up on the market looking like nothing else available, but it's a solid day bag with the kind of luxuriously minimalistic look that's just begging to be photographed next to a vase of peonies for maximum Instagram likes. It doesn't look over-designed, and the long tails on the front belt give it just a little bit of drama. It also looks good when carried with the optional long shoulder strap, and it's not has heavy as some Céline bags--what's not to like?
The size you see below is the Mini Belt Bag, but don't be fooled by the name--like the Mini Luggage Tote, this is the bag's standard size, and there's nothing particularly small about it, with a base that's 11 inches wide and a roomy interior. The bag starts at $2,500 for a solid color in grained or satin calfskin, while bicolor goatskin will set you back $2,700. The crocodile version, of course, is priced at "if you have to ask, you can't afford it." You can get more information about the bags via Céline.

Hello, ladies! Let’s start the week with a bang, shall we? Allow us to make you fall head-over-heels with the Celine Belt Bag – one of the luxury brand’s classic favorites, with a twist for Fall Winter 2015. I mean, the craftsmanship on this thing exceeds expectations, don’t you think? It’s worth a second (or a third… or a fourth…) look after all!
Every season, Celine takes their bag designs up a notch and features some beautiful variations to choose from. For the classic gals who want to keep it on the low, the smooth calfskin version is for you! If you’re feeling kind of textured and all, then the grained calfskin will do just the trick.
From the collection, the exotic leather take got our attention the most – blame it on the python! It’s really an exquisite bag to have, don’t you think? We’re sure you can rock it like nobody’s business.

The first time that the Belt Bag was launched, we knew it was something unique and not only because it has two long tentacles on the front.
By the way, the two long straps (tentacles) are quite elegant and unique, have you seen a bag like this before?
But then again everything what Celine makes is quite exclusive, think of the luggage bag… famous because the front looks like a face-expression.
The Celine Belt Bag is minimal, usually they come in single colors. It has expanded sides, almost like two wings for the purpose of more storage. The common leather to make this bag is calfskin, which is strong and durable.
Now for the Spring Summer 2015 Collection, we want to share with you the bag that’s available in store. Check out them out below.

Normally, Celine only introduce one or two new bags per season, the others are classics that return from season to season. Like… the Celine Classic Box, like the Celine Edge Handbag, like the Celine Cabas Tote.
But the Fall 2014 Collection is an exception, I am mesmerized and surrounded by many new Celine Bags and they are all so-Celine, ya know – simple and streamlined.
And so, we personally want to introduce to you the Celine Belt Tote, a bag with two tentacles. Though we haven’t seen the bag in real-life yet (we are still waiting for its release), from looking at the pictures, we are pretty sure that the front flap is inspired by the Celine Tie Handbag. If you don’t like the outside-flap, then hide it inside the bag.
The Belt Bag is made from Smooth or natural Calfskin, but it’s also available in crocodile leather. The colors you can choose from are; Burgundy, Navy Blue and Black/Cream.
We do not have the exact measurement of the size, but we do know that you can get this bag for $2,600 USD (in small size) at your Celine boutique or its distributors.
