Despite her eight-figure paychecks, Jennifer Lawrence has always maintained that she is still a down-to-earth girl.

And on Friday the 24-year-old showed she's just like everyone else, as she sought her mother Karen Lawrence's advice while looking for an apartment.

The pair looked laid-back as they were spotted heading into New York City together to begin their search.

Throw everything into a bucket bag by Kenneth Cole

We've already sung the praises of crossbody bags to the high heavens above but have we also mentioned how much we love a bucket bag?

Their wide drawstring opening makes it easier to find your items and store larger things (like a water bottle) if need be. All our favorite designers like Saint Laurent, Celine and The Row have tapped into the bucket bag trend this season creating chic takes on the classic style.

We personally love Jennifer's black and white color blocked purse because it can be versatile for both light and dark ensembles and also seasonally. But perhaps the best part about it, is that it's by high street brand Kenneth Cole-- with a very reasonable pricetag.

Especially when you consider that Celine is trying to hawk a bag verrrrry similar for over $2000.

That being said, if you're not totally sold on Jennifer's bag then browse through our edit below to see if anything catches your eye!
