Fashion Jewelry: The Bucket

Bag that is. Many Accessories editors and the like are calling it the bag of the moment. I personally have a bit of a love/hate relationship with the bucket. I tend to carry a little too much at times which doesn't work well. As you know, everything falls to the bottom, so I find myself digging and digging for what I need. It's Like, hellooooooooo down there! For that reason, I tend to gravitate toward satchels. The sectioned areas gives me some structure. I guess the answer to that is to pare it down as I would for a smaller crossbody, because I really do like them.

I really, really love Madewell's version......I can almost smell that Italian leather! Griffo and Frye's versions are also favorites. Perhaps the most versatile, are those akin to Elizabeth & James' white version. You can carry it as a bucket, sling it over your shoulder or wear it as a backpack.
