3 Chic Bucket Bags
Sep 8th, 2011

Do you love a bucket bag design? It’s the least of my favorite bag shapes because I find that these do not have any structure and that I may end up digging for my things inside it.

But over the years, bucket handbag designs are becoming trendier and trendier. And it’s like every designer has a bucket bag or two in their collection. Bucket bags may not be a popular choice, just yet. But I’ve got a sense that in a couple of years, someone’s going to come up with an IT bag designed as a bucket bag.

For now, though, these selections I think are good enough to complement your style and fashion.


Chloé – Gabby Suede & Leather Patchwork Bucket Bag

I like the colorblocked style of this bucket bag. The pocket flaps also make it look contemporary. This is a roomy handbag at 8¾”W X 13″H X 8½”D. The inside is lined with cotton and comes with two more extra pockets. I just want it to come with longer straps, though.


DVF Gold/Black Bucket Bag with Tassel

I think this is a sexy bucket bag, made perfect by its black and gold combination. The tassel puts a nice decorative touch. A woman with a chic style sense can do wonders with this bag when it comes to styling. And since it’s in metallic, this handbag is already a classic accessory for the Fall/Winter season in my book.


Marc by Marc Jacobs Peace Work Stripe Bucket

I’m not so thrilled about the stripes but for some reason, I remain drawn to this bucket bag because of its structure. I think it’s compact enough to put a bag organizer in there. This is made of cotton and would be great for fall daytime wear.

Do you love bucket bags? What’s your favorite?

Trend Alert: Raffia Handbags
Mar 21st, 2011

Now that it’s officially spring and the promise of warm weather is in the offing, gearing up for some fine-feather worthy bags that not only looks stylish, they’re also, fun, easy and lightweight to carry around.

I’m zeroing in on those lovely pink-accented raffia tote bags. Whenever spring or summer comes around, I’m particularly drawn to these designs. Nothing quite says laidback, beach-friendly, stylish summer fun as these bags:


Marc by Marc Jacobs Preppy Straw Rosa Tote

A tapered straw tote with bright PVC trim is perfect for the beach or the park, with a handy attached inside pouch for small essentials.

Double top handles, 5″ drop
Open top
Removable outside luggage/ID tag
Attached inside pouch
17″W X 9″H X 5″D
Imported


Cleobella Sirena Raffia Tote

This oversized raffia tote features contrast, scalloped stitching at the top. Contrast, braided leather handles.

* 16″H x 21″L x 16″D.
* 13″ strap drop.
* Made in Bali.


Elaine Turner Sophie N/S Tote

Elaine Turner’s Sophie is a modern carry-all that’ll pair perfectly with your favorite warm-weather outfits. It will satisfy your craving for an accessory with a trend-right natural look, and it has pretty, nautical-inspired rope handles.

While all these bags are made from raffia, each bag brings a certain look and style. I can’t actually pick which one I like best. From the most casual to the most elegant, whether going to the beach or a swanky spring party at night, these raffia bags make such stylish statements.
