I felt this bag was appropriate for the week since it appears Alexander Wang was inspired by Native American suede pouches when he designed the Diego bucket bag. Granted, there are a few more studs than the Natives preferred but can’t you just picture Chief Powhatan with this? It’s not entirely tragic, just a bit boring from what I’d come to expect from the bad boy designer. I am also not a bucket bag girl, things get lost in its deep abyss and it’s awkward to carry on the shoulder or arm. The bucket tote silhouette was originally invented by LV (the Noe bag) to hold 4 bottles of champagne– now if Alexander Wang will throw in 4 bottles of Cristal Rose in there, I might reconsider this.

I have never like AW bags. They look cheap.
My dear bagsnobs…this is off-topic but just wanted you to know that I’m visiting Mexico City and right now I’m back from a club where, just like that, I ran into Christian Louboutin… needless to say my jaw dropped…
Hi Alex
How cool! What did you say to him, if anything?
Oh dear! If you could only see the expression my face must have had…I must confess that I could do nothing else but giggle. The thing is that there wasn’t going anything special on at said club, it was business as usual, therefore Monsieur Louboutin sight was completely unexpected and considering the fact that he was largely unrecognized by other patrons just made it cool-er as he could unwind and have a night out just like anyone else would; it isn’t quite a large club and there was just one table between his and ours. Just for you to know, he was wearing his own-designed studded oxfords!!! (so to bring back this comment back to this post’s topic ha ha)
I’ve never posted in here before so now that we’re at it….AWESOME WORK!!!
lol, thanks Alex. You should comment more often, we love interacting with our readers!
The multitude of heavenly studs rescue this bag from “meh”-ness – somewhat. But I sure wish he would do a whiskey colored Coco Duffel. Since I have never even seen an AW bag up close I cannot comment on the quality!
They are trying so hard to make this an IT bag…
Schizophrenic bag. Suede is a delicate material and it does not mix with the hardware, which is conveying the exact opposite idea (tough studs + soft suede???). Besides, such a light shade is going to get dirty very quickly.
