The It Bag of the Season

Alissa of Lipgloss and Labels Cult Gaia Ark Bag

Alissa of Lipgloss and Labels 

It has been a long time since I have seen a fashion accessory go this viral and I am trying to think of something similar but I am at a loss. If you follow a single fashion blogger on Instagram the chances are high that you have seen the Cult Gaia Ark Bag in the past few months.  This bag which comes in two sizes, small and large, is made of bamboo, will set you back $128 and the neutral shade is the perfect complement to almost any Spring or Summer outfit!  

I must also say, unlike many round ups, I did not have a shortage of beautiful images to pick from when putting together this post because everyoneone and there mother, quite litaerlly, has this bag.  Take a look at some of my favorite bloggers and how they decided to style this Cult Gaia Ark Bag!

The only crazy thing?  The bag is empty in almost every single one of these photos! I think it is a cute accessory  but the day to day practicality is missing for me as it can to not hold a great deal and does not no shoulder strap – something I look for in an evening bag – or at least a way to hide my belongings, and as such, I will take a pass. Though I must be in the minority because this bag is everywhere – so much so it is sold out right now and the site now has it on backorder until May 30th but if you still want it, here you go! 

 

Would you buy the Cult Gaia Ark Bag?

    I can’t believe how popular this bag is but I guess it makes sense that it is on back order! I don’t want to wait til June!

    It’s so cute but I agree! It’s not practical enough for me either!

    It’s definitely fashionable but it’s not my style! 😛 thanks for gathering all the pics of these bloggers with the purse. So interesting to see how each of them styled it!

    Cute idea to add a pop of color to the bag if your outfit needs it.
