Marc Jacobs, king of the West Village, oh how many Carrie Bradshaw wannabes he has spawned. Personally, I think the man’s a genius, and one of the few American designers to make others across the Atlantic take notice. But, this bag has got to go.
It’s a lot more Elle Woods than Carrie Bradshaw, and I do not mean that as a compliment. Seriously, it looks like Juicy Couture. On a a bad day. The combination of hot pink sequins and the loosely fastened gold pyramid studs looks cheap and haphazard, and while I guess the attached leather wallet is practical, the rest of the bag completely distracts from it.
$595 for this baby. No, I’m not joking. It’s on the low end, price-wise, of Mr. Jacobs’ designs, as well it should be, but it still seems high for something that looks so cheesy. It looks like the design team shook up a bunch of bag trends – 80’s styles, pyramid studs – and out came this monstrosity.
This is really a first for me, as I can’t think of a single nice thing to say about this Marc Jacobs bag. Except that maybe he’ll just pull it from the shelves ASAP and we can pretend it was just a bad dream.
