One of the things that I love about Marc Jacobs is that his version of hip isn’t too cool for school. In other words, he isn’t pretentious about his hipness. Even if you aren’t particularly cool, you will probably still find something to love about this Francesca leather tote.
Gray is the new nude, or at least that’s what I’m thinking. Nude is great and all, but if you happen to be a bit tomboyish, you might want some other alternative to black. This soft gray fits the bill perfectly. And the smooth leather has a nice diffused shine on it that makes it look expensive, but not too expensive.
The shape of the Francesca is relatively amorphous. It has the cut of a tote, but the heart of a hobo, and it’s super slouchiness makes it perfect for all this season’s rock star chic styles. It has a cool, casual vibe, but with a lot of little details that belie its quality, like the triangular leather reinforcements on the handles.
I wish this bag were slightly less expensive. At $530, it’s just a little too pricey for most of the cool kids I know.
