Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Patent Faridah

Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Patent Faridah
I remember awhile back when a few of the girls over at TBF were drooling over the MBMJ Totally Turnlock Faridah bag. The super soft leather, the cute little turnlocks, the convenient exterior pockets, and the shoulder bag styling were listed as redeeming qualities. And I have to admit, I agreed with everyone when they said it was a great everyday bag. This bag is both casual and stylish. And since this bag seemed so popular, I wasn't surprised when I learned Marc had reintroduced the style with an added twist. That's right! The MBMJ Totally Turnlock Faridah has been given an urban-chic upgrade. It is now available in ultra shiny patent leather. This bag is so shiny, you can literally see your face in it. So how does everyone feel about this new version of the MBMJ Totally Turnlock Faridah? Is it a total hit? Or would you rather stick with the traditional, soft leather version? Personally, I think the patent is nice. However, if given the choice, I would probably pick the soft leather version.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Patent Faridah is available in Cherry or Black Patent. It measures 12.75" x 14" x 6" and has a 9" strap drop. It retails for $448. Find it at shopbop.com

I don't really like the patent.. it reminds me of raincoats. haha

Did I see RAINCOAT???

I saw this the other day on the Zappos website and was wondering what it would look like IRL. I might have to check them out tomorrow while at VM! Of course I would prefer it in MbMJ leather because it is so soft and buttery!

I definitely prefer this bag in leather.

The Faridah is way big to be in patent form.

I love the Turnlock line, I love the Faridah, but I dont love this Turnlock Faridah! LOL! Its much much better IMO in the regular leather version; soft, smooshy, and wonderful all around.
