What we want for Spring: a cylindrical Bucket Bag

Friday 23 February 2018

The bucket bag has become a wardrobe must-have: we all appreciate its minimal design, the elegant and convenient shape that can suit most occasions. However, if the most popular models can be tightened and closed with drawstrings on the top, the 2018 version is the cylindrical bucket bag. It is worn on the hand or the arm, with one or two small handles that completely remind us of the beach bucket, or with metallic rings for the more sophisticated models.

This geometric and modern variation will instantly bring a trendy, contemporary twist to your outfit! Focus on my 6 favorite models, selected to suit every budget.

1. The classic bucket bag

Simon Miller is one of the first designers that launched the trend. The best-seller « Bonsai » bag, comes in many colors and variations.

2. The Summery bucket bag

I am completely falling for this Staud Clothing bag, spotted on influencers such as Leandra Medine, Aimee Song or Alexa Chung. Made from structured leather, this baby-pink version sits inside a macramé outer layer that’s reminiscent of a fisherman’s net.

3. A pastel bucket bag

Another coveted model : the mini bucket bag by Cafuné (I did spot it on the Parisian blogger @dressingleeloo). How can you not like its soft pastel color (ideal for Spring) and the integrated canvas bag that you can close with drawstrings.

4. The affordable bucket bag

You want to adopt the trend without breaking the bank…this Mango bucket bag is for you! I especially like the long strap that allows you to carry it on your shoulder.

5. The most original bucket bag

This Paravel bucket bag (in canvas with leather details) brings originality and fun to your outfit! This colorful printed version is a limited edition, get your hands on it quick before it is sold out!

6. The most luxurious bucket bag

Sophistication and timelessness define the American luxury label Mark Cross. This bucket bag « Benchley » is a perfect illustration of it. I love the luxurious gold details, the impeccable and clean design.
