The Bag To Have: Marni Printed Cotton Shopper

Does anyone else have a complete crush on Marni? I have adored Marni’s cool artsy vibe for years, but I am sorry to say I have never scored anything to add to my non-existent Marni collection. I think it’s a combination of the facts that Marni is very pricey and I never seem to find anything on sale, ever. Well, to keep the fantasy alive, this Marni Printed Cotton Shopper, $474, stopped me in my tracks. The black and white print is super dope and the canvas handles are laid-back and functional. Plus, it’s pretty big and for that price seems like a pretty sweet deal.

Tod’s Novita D-Bag Piccola bag, $1100 would make your day a little brighter, and would pair nicely with a pencil skirt, button-up-blouse, and a nice pair of heels. Tod’s is infamous for bringing subtle designs with a huge elegant punch. This bag features woven canvas with blue grained leather and a polished finish trim. The shoulder straps sport a 6″ drop and the top is a frame top with silver metal twist lock closure. Dimensions are 13″x 10″x 5.25″.
A slightly smaller version of Tod’s Novita D-Bag Piccola bag with dimensions of 8.5"H x 10.5"W x 5"D is available for $899.00 here.
Major Fall Accessories Trends Alert
Posted on May 15, 2007 at 12:49 pm (PST) | Comments Off
Fall is many months away, but it’s never too early to report the upcoming trends so we’re here to dish!
The top trends for Fall were highlighted last week at AccessoriesTheShow, Accessorie Circuit, and showrooms. Brace yourselves for more metallic handbags in patent leather, exotic skins, and in shades like pewter, bronze, and gunmetal, but don’t expect to see big, bulky bags. Fall is going to bring smaller and more practical styles to the streets. Fashionable customers are really looking for great shapes and functional zippers and compartments.
In the jewelry department, you’re going to see a sea of silvers to match the grey trend. But don’t do away with your gold bling just yet as it’ll also come in handy (case in point: Alex Woo’s gold cuff is selling like hotcakes).
So while you’re out shopping for that sexy swimsuit, keep these Fall trends in the back of your mind and start your wish list so you’re not overwhelmed when the leaves start to fall.
