Summer Staple: Bucket Bags

Old Navy Bucket Bag with Tassels

For the longest time, I stewed over the bucket bag.  I loved the idea of it — the nautical inspiration, the relaxed shape — but I never was able to commit.  It was definitely uncharted waters for me and I didn’t want to spend a fortune on something I wasn’t completely sold on yet.  I mean, we can’t all shell out $6,000 for a bucket bag, am I right?

It wasn’t until recently that I finally pulled the trigger on the trend and I’m in love!  When done right, the bucket bag can be classic, playful and practical (it fits all my things, including my DSLR!).

So in the spirit of sharing, I rounded up my favorite bucket bags for you!  Whether you go with something minimalist, bold or boho, I think we can all agree that there’s something for everybody in the mix.  Happy shopping and happy weekend!

My love for playful prints just got a major summer upgrade.  I’m currently obsessing over everything palm leaf print.  While I’m sticking around in the concrete jungle for most of the summer, these pretty pieces have got me daydreaming of more tropical adventures.  Check out a few of my favorite palm print pieces and let me know what you think of this summer trend!

Yesterday, my little white dress from Zara was featured on FabSugar’s Look of the Day.  I love this dress so much that inspired me to incorporate more white lace into my life. After all, it’s not just for weddings.  Edge it up with a neon top or a military jacket, keep things sharp with a blazer, or dress it down with gray and earth tones. Check out my favorite inspirations below and follow me on Pinterest for more ideas.
