Wardrobe Essentials – The Bucket Bag

Amy Louise   |   17-08-2016

The bucket bag has become this year’s ‘it’ bag – the perfectly structured accessory not only looks great, but manages to hold all of our essentials without looking over-sized and bulging. The perfect happy medium between a large tote and a clutch bag, the bucket bag should be every girl’s staple accessory. With brands such as Mansur Gavriel really setting the bucket bag trend alight, designers have played with materials, colours and styles to give us a more structured and reinvented bucket bag.

Here are our current favourite styles on the market:
