Are you the kind of person who likes to buy and collect in sets? Are you the kind who likes buying in coordinates? If you are, allow me to feed your compulsive habit with the Brighton Christine Bucket Shoulder, and its matching Check Please Organizer.

Brighton Christine Bucket Shoulder, US$260

Brighton Check Please Organizer, US$157

Both items are made of woven patent leather and natural grain trim for a more textured and distinct appearance, while the interior is lined with Brighton’s signature print.

The Christine Bucket is quite deep and roomy so you can actually use it as your everyday bag for work.

On the other hand, if you want something light and small, the Check Please Organizer would be the most ideal. It is quite handy if all you need to bring are a few bills, your checkbook, your cell, and a compact.

This collection only comes in a classic combination of black and chocolate, so it will be really easy for you to wear and pair with outfits.

You can get your own set of Brighton Christine Bucket Shoulder and matching Brighton Check Please Organizer at Zappos.com

In case you find the Brighton Christine Bucket Shoulder a little big for you, you may purchase the Brighton Christi Small Bucket instead:

Reese Witherspoon and Her Bottega Veneta Tote

Here’s Reese Witherspoon in another Bottega Veneta bag. We saw her previously in a hobo version, now she’s wearing the tote.

She must love Bottega a whole lot. The outfit is quite simple and down to earth, the same way she is, but wearing the woven Bottega is enough to up the look.

A textured bag, such as a woven Bottega, always brings more than the usual to the plate because it adds character to whoever is wearing it.

If you want the look, but don’t want to spend so much money on a bag, check out the new Iona Bucket in Black Patent from Elliot Lucca:

Elliot Lucca Iona Bucket in Black Patent, US$202

The Elliot Lucca Iona Bucket also comes in Eggshell Patent and Multi Metallic

Elliot Lucca Handbags are definitely more affordable, with bag prices falling under US$250 or even lower depending on the style. What I like most about Elliot Lucca Handbags is that they are beautifully constructed. The workmanship on each bag is clean and sturdy, and the materials are of good quality.

The Iona Collection is its most recent release. All the Iona bags are made of woven patent leather, making it look more trendy, glitzy, and wearable for evening.

If you’re fond of buying in sets, you may also purchase the Iona Bucket‘s small partner, the Iona Demi, available in Black Patent and Multi Metallic:
