Let’s face it, if JLaw is a fan, then so are we! Harper’s Bazaar hails the “Bucket Bag” as one of the “It” bags for 2015, and with celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence toting it around, it’s no wonder everyone’s rushing out to pick one up.
However, if you’re not up for paying $875 for an Alexander Wang bag, like the Diego Bucket bag Lawrence wears, we suggest you find a way around it.
