I'm writing about this bag because it's so simple and basic-- an easy piece to incorporate into one's bag wardrobe (will post my 2nd NBC segment on building a bag wardrobe soon, am still recovering from my monthlong trip!). Simple, however, does not mean boring-- the small sprinkling of studs on the sides make the bag trendy and stylish, too. Not sure what that lock is for but at least it's not so big that it detracts from the clean lines (just turn it around, the backside is much cuter). Many of you ask us for bags you can take to work and to cocktails, I think this is it. Price is right, too! Sometimes, Marc pleasantly surprises us with his subtleties, this is one of them.

Well, this bag is quite tame to be a MJ bag. It is also priced on the low side. But it is too simple and too ordinary. Having written this, I already forgot how it looks.
I actually prefer this bag to the python gucci bag. I don't know why. I think it's because the leather looks really soft and also the studding is subtle yet still gives it an interesting twist
I think I've seen too many Chloe Paddington's to like this bag. The lock looks tiny to me!
Perfect for Halloween ball.
Is this Autumn/Winter 09 or Cruise Collection? I adore it!!!
