PSA: COS's Anti-Trend, Designer-Passing High-Street Bag Is Back in a New Colour

Once in a while, an item comes along that quickly outpaces all others in desirability, and whether it's a high-street find or a designer piece, it subsequently becomes harder to track down than a Birkin. Fashion people sit with laptops and phones poised, refreshing the same tabs, waiting for those three little words: "back in stock."

To become this coveted is rare and calls for a unique combination of excellent design, elevated quality and enduring style that come together in perfect proportion to tip that piece from wanted to avidly hunted. The COS Studio Bowling Bag (£225) is Wholesale Replica Bag piece to boast this status.

In recent years, fashion has seen a distinct shift towards timeless, understated and wearable designs, and this bag embraces all three elements. COS takes silhouette inspiration from the bowling bag; a sleek half-moon shape that boasts copious space whilst maintaining a refined appeal. However, unlike a classic bowling bag, this one doesn't gape from end to end when opened but has leather panels concealed on each side, making it much more practical and secure. Its popularity might also have something to do with the fact that the bag bears more than a passing resemblance to a certain—very expensive—designer buy.

Whilst structured in design, there's an ease to this bag that makes it slightly softer and more malleable than other similar styles. This relaxed feel lends itself well to everyday use, perfect to accompany you from office commutes to weekends away.

Every feature of the bag is understated; a simple clip closure, no logos and unfussy stitching details on the bottom corners all add to the premium appeal. Truly, if you didn't know, you'd be hard-pressed to guess this was a bag from a high-street brand.

First the bag was offered in smooth black leather or brown suede, both of which have an enduring, timeless appeal that makes either a smart addition to any handbag collection, and next came the luxe-looking merlot shade. Now, the elegant bag comes in a small and mini size too, as well as a pale beige hue, all of which are destined to be just as coveted as the original.
