Marc Attack!

marc jacobs smudge Looks like those crazy kids at Marc Jacobs have been going a little crazy with the art supplies - as you can see from this rather bizarre looking purse.

It’s the Smudge Print Core Canvas Fran Bag, a sort of totish shoulder bag made of canvas with a leather trim and brass hardware.

It’s pretty funky looking, if a little self-consciously so, and extremely durable.

Somehow, I see either a very young arty lass carrying this purse, or a very old oil-painter dame. 

It’s colourful but not bright, so a very nice alternative to some of the more brash colours we have adorning the boutiques.

Really this sort of purse is perfect for summer sunshine, simply because the sun does tend to make everything look that little bit better…

Possibly not for everyone, but for the people with whom it does fit, it will be just perfect!

SRP $228.00 

May 2, 2006. Marc Jacobs, Purse du Jour.

    I meant, contact the company :). I’m guessing Marc himself is a little harder to get hold of!
