Classic Marc Jacobs

The Marc Jacobs Large Single Shoulder bag is one of my favorites from his collection. The contrast of gold hardware to the black quilted leather creates both a luxurious and classy look. The wonderful leather is made in Italy and the hardware makes the bag pop. I would say that this purse is a cousin to Chanel's traditional quilted leather purse, but it has an extra funky flair with slightly thicker hardware and at only a fraction of the price. What a way to be inspired by a classic but have an extra little edge! I also adore this item in last season's blue color.
