Bowled over

In keeping with autumn's grunge vibe (courtesy of Marc Jacobs, no less), Italian brand Diesel launches the hip Boule bag (above; $5,790). The bag comes in an unusual spherical shape, which Diesel says is a modern version of the classic bowling bag, and is made from distressed camel leather. In true Diesel style, the hardware has been hand-treated to give a vintage look while the strap is a combination of woven chain and leather. The numerous pockets mean you have plenty of storage space as well. Only three bags in purple are available in Hong Kong, so get to the store quickly. Available at Diesel, Kingston Street, Causeway Bay, tel: 2895 1592.
