Default Marc by Marc Jacobs Staples & Studs Large Satchel

Marc by Marc Jacobs Staples & Studs Large Satchel



Now isn't this interesting? Leave it to Marc Jacobs to put staples on a handbag! Introducing the Marc by Marc Jacobs Staples & Studs Large Satchel. It is Marc's lasted interpretation of the punk-chic look. All I can say is that it's... well... um, different. This large black leather bag features stud detail along the top and sides and a huge tassel zipper pull. And no, that isn't a zipper running down the front of the handbag. That is actually a row of staples that is straddling the center seam. Personally, I would never carry this bag. At best, it offers a look that one might call "unique". But I just can't get past those staples. The studs? Sure. But staples? What happened Marc?

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Staples & Studs Large Satchel is huge when it comes to satchel standards. It measures 15" x 12" x 5". The bag features rolled double handles as well as a detachable shoulder strap. What puzzles me, however, is how one would actually use the shoulder strap. The handles don't appear as though they fold down. They actually look like they would be in the way. This bag retails for $528. Find it over at Juicy Couture, Seven Jeans, and More - FREE SHIPPING - shopbop.com.

Yeah, like the Bride of Frankestein or something like that! That's what I thought. I'm kind of weird, so I do like the staples and would carry a bag with them for sure, but not this bag because I don't like the design at all, and I don't like studs in general, much less studded handles. And, bRs made such a good point about that strap. What the heck is it for?!?

Aww, it's okay Zombs. How about that Thomas Wylde Reservation bag that I wrote about? It had studs, a tassel, and NO staples.

I don't mind the staples. I think the tassel looks bad with everything else, though.
