I've fallen in love with one of this fall's biggest accessories trends -- the bucket bag. I really haven't seen it around much since the 90s versions of my childhood, but now it's been reinvented as a modern carry-all. I spent all my birthday money on clothes, but I'm still determined to get one of these bags in the near future...hopefully before New York Fashion Week! Oh yeah, I'm excited to announce that I will be attending some of the shows at NYFW SS14, thanks to my awesome internship at
Papercut Magazine! Anyway, now that I have all my new clothes, I just need a leather bucket bag to top off my fashion week wardrobe! Since my funds have run out, I'm hoping to come across a lucky vintage find during my next thrift venture.

While the classic black ones are sophisticated, these drawstring bags also come in all sorts of fun colors, patterns, fabrics, and textures to fit anyone's style. There are woven and fringe ones for the bohemian, studded and embellished for the edgy one, sleek and simple for the minimalist, perforated and color block for the sporty one, patterned and ombre for the artist, and bright whites and colors for the socialite.
