Bulga is a brand that I mentally place in a category with labels like Treesje and Linea Pelle. Its designs are almost always appealing, high quality, and classic with some unexpected twists that take them to just a little contemporary.
Although I’d probably consider Bulga the most conservative of the three brands when it comes to edgy details, it sometimes surprises me with its take on fashion. The Cava tote epitomizes its understated modern style.
Tote bags tend to be open and roomy inside, and that’s exactly how you’d describe the Cava’s interior. I sometimes find the depth of totes to be irksome when you’re trying to get at something at the very bottom, but it’s a style that is definitely meant for transporting a good amount of stuff. More often than not, I’m wishing for more space anyway, which is something Cava doesn’t lack.
It has a unique personality, too. If you were to see it only from the back or on one side, you might find it plain or ordinary. Upon full inspection, however, this Bulga bag reveals a smattering of charm. One side of the front of the tote is covered in grommet holes of various sizes. These circular details subtly contrast with the Cava’s modern, square handle rings.
My one disappointment with this tote is that I would’ve liked to see longer handles since a short drop can make this type of bag slightly bothersome to manage. Overall, though, I’m pleased with the style and versatility of the Cava.

This is a pretty and unusual hold-all bag from respected designer Burberry.
Stella McCartney is one of those rare fashion designers who puts her morals where her mouth is. She is a militant vegan, and none of her designs use any animal products or even any PVC-based synthetics. All her designs are made from eco-friendly and totally plant-based materials. And, they’re also amazing.

Marc by Marc Jacobs makes young, edgy clothes that are fashion forward and mostly affordable. He’s attracted a loyal, nay, worshipful following among downtown types that is quickly spreading across the world. And, let’s be honest, he deserves it, because bags like this are a recessionista’s dream come true.
Lately, I’ve been starting to think that Betsey Johnson rivals Jessica Simpson for the most variety of styles offered from one brand. The quality isn’t exactly comparable since Betsey Johnson’s designer bags tend to be nicer and more expensive than the celebrity’s label, but the amount of different options that they both have are similar.
This spacious purse from Giuseppe Zanotti is one of “those” bags. You know: the clutches that hit every single trend on the head, all within one little purse. For this expensive designer evening bag, those trends are animal print, chain handles and tassels, all in one!
