Diane von Furstenberg is one of the most prolific designers working today. Her styles are popular everywhere from posh urban enclaves to suburban malls. This Penny bucket bag represents kind of a new direction for her, with its graphic look and slouchy, casual design.
The gray and white leather combination on the Penny is very striking indeed. Gray and white is an unusual combination, and it looks fabulous on this slouchy style. The gold hardware is a little bit too yellow, and it doesn’t really look right with the cool tones of the leather. Fortunately, it doesn’t interfere much with the overall look of the bag.
The bucket design of the Penny is very of-the-moment. Bucket bags have been making a major comeback this season, and this on is really well done. It doesn’t have any exterior pockets to mar the smooth, slouchy design. Frankly, I think the white rope drawstring is a little much, but I like the gray tassels with their long fringe.
At $695, the Penny is a pretty good buy considering its size and quality. Plus, it will be great now with your winter garb, but will still look fresh come spring.
