The Bag To Have: Marc Jacobs Flap Shoulder Bag

I was minding my own business, just casually browsing Barneys' website (research right?), when I suddenly ran into this Marc Jacobs Flap Shoulder Bag, on sale for $359 (originally $539).

I was minding my own business, just casually browsing Barneys' website (research right?), when I suddenly ran into this Marc Jacobs Flap Shoulder Bag, on sale for $359 (originally $539). Now, you know I'm partial to anything MJ so it's no big surprise that I stopped off at his section. What excited me beyond belief was the red font indicating a sale!

Fall is months away but true fashionistas are already preparing their closets for the crunchy leaves and gloomier weather. This flap bag is incredibly right for the upcoming season; it's utilitarian in size and has just the right amount of adornments (the gold chain and signature pushlock).

What really attracted me to this particular MJ is that it's simple and hardcore at the same time. The chain link gives it some pizazz but unlike the Stam and other Fall bags, it retains some down-to-earth-ness. A round of applause to Marc for yet another handbag well done - clap, clap clap!

The Bag to Have: Linea Pelle Lola Shoulder Bag

Everyone from Hayden Panettiere to Katherine Heigl has been seen carrying incredibly well-made Linea Pelle handbags.

Everyone from Hayden Panettiere to Katherine Heigl has been seen carrying incredibly well-made Linea Pelle handbags. But that's not the only reason this Lola Shoulder Bag, $470, is the bag to have. The vibrant limonetta color (left) is what first grabbed my attention. It's nearly Summer, which means time to hide those dark brown and black bags, and to carry something a little more fun and light-hearted. Lola is here to help, and it's rather affordable compared to many of the other high-priced bags on the market!

It's also made of South American leather, which means it's ultra durable and long lasting. What makes Lola a true knockout, besides its scrumptious hue, is its braided handles and brass hardware. A feminine bag with masculine features...I love it! And don't worry about having to match it with all your outfits; a little clashing never hurt anyone. I would carry Lola with a full skirt with a fun print, a simple white tee and flats.
