Ahhh, the bucket list… Do you have one? Does it contain traveling to some far-off, exotic place? Jumping out of an airplane? Swimming with sharks? On ours? Getting our hands on the latest it bag, more like the it shape: the Bucket Bag.
The bucket bag, often overlooked for more structural shaped totes, has become the coveted carryall for celebrities (Angelina Jolie and Reece Witherspoon have been spotted wearing it) and fashionistas. Featuring a flat bottom with longer shoulder straps, the bucket bag is rather roomy without being bulky or oversized. The versatile style is ideal for those with more traditional style taste, but since the B.B. (Bucket Bag) also exudes an effortless chic vibe, boho girls love it, too.
One of the most iconic bucket bags of them all, Louis Vuitton’s Noe, which originally debuted in 1932 as champagne tote, yes, a bag to tote bottles of champagne, got a makeover this spring with the launch of the Louis Vuitton Noe BB that comes in rainbow of colors from mimosa (bright yellow) to figue (vibrant violet) in the brand’s signature epi leather. A tad smaller in size, the Noe BB adds a burst of effortless color to any outfit and still roomy enough for some bubbly.
Also on trend, Prada, who debuted an entire collection, and upped the style quotient with some seriously, studded options, as well as some with flirty fringe and classic versions.
Hermès Sole-Cool is the luxury house’s twist on the tote and it’s available in number of different printed silk and calfskin combinations. Definitely a colorful option to consider adding to your collection.
So, go grab your bucket, but leave the shovel at home.
