Consider this the perfect time to start drafting your Summer ’15 wish list. The season’s best bags give us a few new looks to consider — and the return of a few old favourites.

The bucket bag has a universally appealing shape. It’s structured, but not too structured — fashionable, but not too out-there. It’s one that both luxury designers and mass retailers have gotten behind (with fervor) in recent fashion seasons.

It’s not about what you carry, but how you carry it. Whether your style is more biker or bohemian, there is a bucket bag out there for you.
