Color is creeping back in to summer bag selections, and this week we have a few particularly nice new picks from some of our most enthusiastic bag lovers. Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have been frequent flyers on PurseBlog all year, as has Winnie Harlow. I can’t imagine any of them are going anywhere anytime soon. In other news, is the Dior Book Tote the ideal beach bag?Discuss.

Priyanka Chopra
Priyanka Chopra was snapped heading out out of her Tribeca apartment carrying a brad new, genuine ostrich leather Ferrago Boxyz Bag.
Naomi Watts
Naomi Watts has a new film to promote, so she is making the press rounds in her home turf of NYC this week. carrying an off-white The Row Margaux 15 Bag.
Nick Jonas
Nick Jonas is back from his Miami trip, and gym-bound with a sleek, unisex leather belt bag of unknown origin. Can you believe this man was accused of having a “dad bod” just days ago? Ladies and gentlemen, this ain’t a dad bod.
Not sure what Naomi Watts’s bag is, but I don’t think it’s the Row Margaux as it’s missing the straps in the gussets and is a different shape altogether.
This is more an Alma shape but obviously not LV…closest I can think of is MG’s top handle bag, though that lacks the metal feet and lock.
Naomi’s bag is The Row’s Lady Soft Box Top-Handle Bag from their Fall collection.
Her stylist tagged the row in her ig post. The bag almost looks like a cross between the Margaux and the sporty bowler
I agree, it’s not even close to the Margaux. It *could* be an Hermes Bolide. While they normally only do leather-covered locks on exotics, I’ve seen normal white bags with a leather lock.
It’s not a Bolide either. It’s missing stitching on the side of the bag and the handle attachments are different and this features no tab at the end of the zipper. The attachment on the lock feature on the bolide isn’t a peg like it is on this. I have no idea what this could be. I thought maybe it was the balenciaga ville with the balenciaga logo hidden but it’s not because of the lock closure. I’m lost.
Mandy Bork’s look is apropos of a Saint Tropez traveler! Priyanka’s bag is pretty; although not for me, I like Naomi’s entire look.
I am surprised that the Dior Book Bag is so popular. It is beautiful, but it has no shoulder strap option, is vulnerable to stains, there is no closure so it is wide open, and lastly, there is no outside pocket.
I agree with all the negative things you mention, which is why I’m not buying it – but I have to admit, I *really* love the way it looks. If I had a lot of money to burn, I’d buy it and not look back.
The open-ness wouldn’t be as much of an issue for me, since I’d use it for travel or the beach, but definitely a no-go for a day bag.
Love love love Priyanka’s bag. Off to see if they make a bigger version.
