Marc by Marc Jacobs Lil Ukita Leather Shoulder Bag: Bag Review #bagreview

Marc by Marc Jacobs comes up trumps again with the Marc by Marc Jacobs Lil Ukita Leather Shoulder Bag.  With a selection of bright summer colours (and a few on trend pastel shades thrown in for good measure) these handbags are ideal for jumping on the colour blocking bandwagon.  The Lil Ukita shoulder bag is your go-to handbag for that illusive combination of everyday practicality and luxury.  This week we mostly love the Electric Blue Lemonade version that we spotted at my-wardrobe, and that’s not just because of its 80’s inspired name (honestly)!

What are they made of?

Here at Bagservant we were blown away by the sheer softness of the cow’s leather used to make these handbags.  The malleable leather practically moulded into us as we excitedly pranced around my-wardrobe HQ with them draped over us!  All of the Lil Ukita handbags have a generous fold over flap and are lined in a quirky signature monochrome lettered design which reminds you how special these designer handbags are.  At £350, these bags measure approximately W31 x H22 x D10cm and come with a top handle and a detachable leather shoulder strap.  Gold hardware completes the look, with a front logo embossed plaque and lobster clasp strap fasteners.

What colours are available?

Play it safe with the black, white, praline, cement or the cinnamon stick colour choices.  You can just never go wrong with these classic, understated colours.  They go with everything and always look chic whatever the occasion.  For a slightly more daring approach, Marc by Marc Jacobs has generously created these Lil Ukita leather shoulder bags in an array of vibrant colour hits such as Lobster Red and Electric Blue Lemonade.  As if this isn’t enough colour choice for your everyday bag, you can also pick up a pastel and opt for the Lil Ukita handbag in baby pastel pink when you require this seasons instant trend shot.

Why we love them?

We’re just head over heels in love with the supple leather, the funked up monochrome lining and the very idea that you can utilise such a cracking Marc by Marc Jacobs piece in such a practical, everyday way.  We like that the versatility of this bag will appeal to both Trendsetters and Miss Practical personalities alike, but most of all we love that we can do our favourite thing with these bags…colour block!
