Yes, this is my second Marc by Marc Jacobs post for the week, but it was very much needed for the Totally Turnlock Faridah in Cranberry. I'm a pink lover so it is now wonder why I'm drawn to the Turnlock Faridah. Even though I'm never really drawn to shoulder bags, I'm loving this particular bag. Everything about this bag is amazing! A huge plus for me is the two front pouch pockets with twist-lock closures. Sometimes I get so lazy that I just start packing stuff (especially my phone and papers) into my front pockets until I feel the need to open my bag up and throw everything in. I'm all over any bag that has a magnetic closure, and wha-la! The Turnlock Faridah is complete with a hidden magentic closure! Lastly, the bag is accented with logo textile lining with scrambled "Marc Jacobs" letters.

If you are not loving the Cranberry as much as I am, no worries, the Turnlock Faridah currently comes in: Black, Elderberry, and Fools Gold at one of our favorite sites eLUXURY. What's even better about the Turnlock Faridah is its amazing price! You can currently get this bag at eLUXURY for $448. Thoughts?

I am not much of a "pink" girl myself. I love this version of the Faridah in Elderberry.

Just a note: I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Elderberry (Purple) color in this bag. However, I was very surprised when I went to Nordies and had a chance to see and feel this bag. The color was stunning but the leather was significantly different from all previous seasons of the Faridah (or any of the MBMJ turnlock bags) Its much thinner and lighter. Now that may or may not be a good/bad thing...Im not sure, but all in all, its definitely a surprise and a departure from previous season's leather.

Afterthought: I guess if you are wanting a lighter bag, the new season's Faridah is def the way to go. If you are lusting after the thick, chewy leathers that comprised the MBMJ turnlock styles (including the Faridah) from past seasons, then this is not the best option.

Just my 2.9 shillings!
