Jess of @cationz is renowned across social media channels for her minimalist yet bold takes on fashion, home decor, and a tasteful lifestyle. Join us for a quick tour of her impeccably styled home, and discover how she wears our new Atlow Bucket Tote—a luxuriously smooth and elegant design for any season, whether you’re dressing up or down.

Jess, a woman with short dark hair and glasses, wearing a white t-shirt and light jeans, walks up a set of stairs while carrying a Tsuchiya Kaban’s Atlow Bucket Tote in Black slung over her shoulder.

Style 1: Coffee Run
We love a classic T-shirt and denim outfit, particularly when paired with the right accessories. This simple but tasteful look is perfect for a quick coffee run or strolls around town. The bucket tote provides all the storage you need for impromptu finds, while adding a sophisticated accent to this casual outfit.

A brightly lit living space features a large dining table with mixed chairs, a white sofa, several potted plants, a floor lamp, and a large window showing green trees outside.

Jess, a woman wearing glasses and a light blue collared shirt, sits at a light-colored table, holding a smartphone in one hand and typing on a laptop with the other. Her Tsuchiya Kaban’s Atlow Bucket Tote in Black hangs on a wicker chair beside her, with a record player, artwork, and plants in the background.

Style 2: Home Office
Balancing comfort with a touch of formal, Jess wears a buttoned dress shirt with folded denim pants for a home office day. A great way to stay meeting-ready, whether you’re hopping on a virtual call or heading to a cafe to meet a colleague. Plus, you’ll have no trouble tucking your laptop and charger into this spacious Bucket Tote.

Jess, a woman wearing glasses and a beige sweater with matching pants, sits on a textured white sofa, putting a laptop into a Tsuchiya Kaban’s Atlow Bucket Tote in Black. A pleated floor lamp, books on a side table, and large windows looking out to trees are in the background.

Style 3: Lounging at Home
Pair your lounge-y ensemble with this leather bag for a relaxing day at home. Keep your planner, laptop, and afternoon read within arm’s reach and ready to tote in case you pop out for an afternoon treat.

Style 4: Date Night
We love how the flowy shapes of the Bucket Tote complement the exquisite silhouettes of this ruffled spaghetti strap dress.
Jess pairs it with wide denim pants and buckled ballet flats, bringing a playful touch—a lovely mix of sweet and sleek.
