Spring 2015 Trend: Get a Bucket Bag

First, this is a repost of an older post that was not successfully transferred from my Blogger account to my WordPress account. Images were not coming up.

When I was younger, I always used to wear bucket bags and clutches. Now that I am a bit older and with kids, I love tote bags. I guess you can carry a lot of stuff in them. Bucket bags seem to be the trend for this spring.

My top choices are the Madewell bags because they are of great quality and more affordable than the other brands. I bought one of the Madewell bucket bags in aubergine more than a year ago. Of course I like the shape of the handbag but it was the colour that attracted me the most. For those willing to spend more money, my top picks are the Elizabeth and James bucket bags, especially the one with stripes.
