Marc by Marc Jacobs Flights of Fancy Shopper
Filed under: Handbags
Marc Jacobs has an uncanny ability to create handbags that are immediately classic and sophisticated as well as handbags that are quirky and offbeat yet unexpectedly become classics of their own accord. Perhaps he has that magic touch where for years anything he touches has been successful or maybe we all just love what he does because he is Marc and we expect to be bewildered yet excited about his creations - who knows? Whatever the case may be, I am pretty much hooked on almost everything he does. I trust his taste and style even when I don't immediately agree with his vision because I know he will always push the envelope all the while having fun and taking chances with fashion. Take for example Jacob's Flights of Fancy Shopper featured here. It's a colorful and quirky collection of various animals set in the outdoors. And although it may not fit the mold of the next "it" bag, it is certainly unique and refreshingly different from the rest of the monotone color oversized bags that have become so popular – which by the way I love as well. The Flights of Fancy Shopper has character all on its own and not because it is a recreation of what shoppers have become accustomed to but because it is Marc once again having fun with fashion. Price: $428.
