Marc Jacobs Elsa Woven Leather Bag

| 9 Comments

(Hum to tune of Donny and Marie classic song) I'm a little bit Chanel, I'm a little bit Bottega, I'm the result of a lack of imagination and a little bit of hallucination. Seriously now, I expect a lot more from Marc Jacobs, the designer touted as boy genius of the fashion world. Just look at this mishmash of confusing details, it's almost as if "someone" took a little bit of "something" when they hallucinated this bag- not pointing fingers, really I am not! But woven leather with garish gold chains on a foot and half long bag? It reminds me of a sack of rice and not even as functional because you really couldn't carry rice in this now could you? Boy, we are not happy bag snobs lately. How do you expect us to be with bags like this shoved in our faces daily? As if the hideous design (or lack there of) is not enough, they stick a $3,000 price tag on it! (okay, I am exaggerating, it's $2850 but add shipping and handling or whatnot and you'll get pretty close to 3k.) Ugh! For that amount I can buy a REAL Chanel or a REAL Bottega and not some third rate knock off.
To buy and risk ridicule or just for a good laugh, Marc Jacobs Elsa woven leather bag available here. TGIF everyone, let's hope next week brings us an abundance of fabulous bags!

  • lol, i just saw the size of this bag. it really is 2 foot long and 2 foot wide, look at it on the mannequin! you are so cute, now i have that song in my head...

    i don't blame you guys for your ragging, these bags are just so hideous!

  • I am so sick of Marc Jacobs!!!

    this is one fugly sack

  • This is gorgeous, gorgeous. I would get this in a heartbeat! Do they carry violet? It would look stunning in a purple color!!!

  • poor marc, so many collections. maybe he's buring out: (

  • what more can one say....why did he bother?
    I think if it were smaller as in not so tall, one could see into it.
    But as always, would rather do as you at that price..chanel or BV

  • It's ugly and old lady-ish. yuck

    he tookthe worst of chanel and bv and bastardized it

  • Agree...don't like it...and also agree with the post that there are too many Marc bags out there...so many saturating the market, I won't even carry his bags anymore bc they are EVERYWHERE!! :)

  • OUCH...but, I couldn't agree more. It is a disastrous product.

  • HA HA HA YOU ARE REALLY HILARIOUS BAGSNOB TINA!
