Temperley London Aurora Pouch is Petite, Practical and Pretty!
There are plenty of reasons to adore bucket bags, the hottest trend in handbags since the cross-body bag. For one, the bucket shape lets me indulge my bad habit of haphazardly tossing all my must-haves in with no pressure to stay organized at all — guilt-free! Secondly, the drawstring closure not only allows for easy access, but also lends itself to a pouch shape that’s totally cute despite the much-less-flattering (and deceiving) “bucket” imagery the name provides. Thirdly, it’s much more fun to carry than a clutch! But I have to admit, despite the fact that bucket bags are trendy, roomy, and an all-around great excuse to buy yourself a new purse, most tend to give off a look that’s a bit too casual and slouchy for a night out. In fact, some even end up looking like feed bags (especially in more fall-friendly tawny and saddle shades), which is definitely not a good look for a night out on the town. That’s why I love the Temperley London Aurora Pouch which provides a much dressier take on the bucket trend with a pouch that’s practical but still going-out ready in a flash. I love how the circle studs give it a cute retro-modern polka dot look that adds just the right amount of shine, and it’s the perfect size for everything you’d need to go out without feeling cumbersome or clunky! Of course, at $745 it’s a little out of my price range, but I certainly wouldn’t turn it down as a gift (a girl can dream…)!

I also happen to love bucket handbags, but I disagree with you about not being able to use them in the evening. There are so many sizes available out there you just have to look around and you will find a perfectly adorable evening bucket handbag. I am so used to putting everything in my bucket bag that even for an evening I cannot do without shoving stuff in there.
