While the Marc by Marc Jacobs line is always hip and fresh, the Marc Jacobs collection is always ladylike and chic. Jacobs has, in the past few decades, literally redefined American fashion. The understated sophistication of this Camille tote shows Jacobs at his best.
The textured black leather on the Camille has a rich look and refined finish. The combination of this traditional material with a timeless shape makes it an instant classic. Although it’s called a tote, it has a lot more class than your average stripey canvas beachbag. The Camille is going to appeal to everyone from Upper East Side preppy types to ultra-feminine vintage fashion fetishists.
While this bag has a distinctively retro character to it, it’s definitely made of modern proportions. Most women won’t have a problem fitting their necessities inside. It’s not exactly big enough for a laptop, but who wants to tote a laptop in this beauty, anyways?
The keys to the Camille are in the details. The curved handlestraps and front padlock are delightful and classic. The only problem I see is in constantly having to open that front flap to get into the main compartment. The solution is to never keep it actually locked.
At $1,850, this is an investment bag worth saving up for. In fact, I’m thinking of selling my car. Anyone want to buy a 1995 Chrysler LeBaron?
