Ally Ruched Slouchy Bag

A classy hobo bag for a weekday work lunch. Perfectly blending together both style and function, the Ally features a sophisticated pleated design in a lovely taupe hue, and also comes with an adjustable strap and inner pouch (both detachable), We recommend styling this slouchy bucket bag with a flowy blouse, satin pants, and slingback pumps for a polished and put-together look.

An accessible brand with genuine kudos, Charles & Keith has put the creativity back into affordable accessories. Its shoe and bag collections are always on the money, making them a hit with the British style press. Although it’s a global brand, it’s a relative newcomer to the British high street, so our advice is to get it early before everyone catches on.
