Tod’s Large Perforated Leather Bucket Bag: Spring Fling

Welcome back! It’s so wonderful to see Tod’s on my radar again, thanks to this perfect summer tote. It’s nothing revolutionary, but the bag definitely has some majorly covetable details.

With a nuanced punched-out motif, it brings to mind a signature Alaïa tote, just more functional and accessible. This geometric perforation is classic, so timeless it almost projects a vintage look. The delicate but not dainty buckled straps introduce a cool sense of contrast, but the tote is even cooler from the side.

It has a slim profile, so it won’t stick out or feel bulky when it’s on your shoulder, and the bottom is perfectly flat, flaring upward to reveal yummy pink gussets. (I have bags with bottoms that protrude so far out they become uncomfortable to keep at your side and it’s annoying.) Extra points for the inclusion of an organizational pouch. The final word? This tote is airy, spacious, and adorable. I just might spring for it. Tod’s perforated leather bucket bag at Luisa via Roma for $2,345.

Pair with: Keep your feet as breezy as your bag with a pair of light woven espadrilles, like Stella McCartney’s in soft metallic silver. On NET-A-PORTER for $300.
