Marc Jacobs 1984 Textured-leather Shoulder Bag: Bag of the Week

Marc Jacob’s tangerine 1984 textured-leather shoulder bag is a gorgeous alternative to the conservative office handbag.  Its tantalising tangerine leather exterior will pop against your tailored suit, but throw this cross body bag on with jeans and a tee and you have a sexy designer satchel look for chilled out weekend wear.  Marc Jacob handbags are renowned for their clean lines and this streamlined citrus shoulder bag is the perfect Spring/Summer addition to your handbag collection.

 

Is it practical?

The 1984 Marc Jacobs handbag is a carry all that will comfortably house A4 documents, books, everyday essentials and your tablet.  Akin to school satchel, this retro-chic textured leather handbag is elegantly practical.  It has just the right amount of on trend style for such a functional piece.  It weighs 1.3kg so it doesn’t add too much extra weight to what you are already carrying, and its large proportions of 11”x 13”x 2” give you all the space you need.

Did you know?

Marc Jacobs was the youngest ever designer to win the prestigious Perry Ellis award for ‘New fashion talent’.  We knew we loved him for a reason!

Why do we love it?

We love the tangerine stain of this gorgeous textured cow’s leather, which instantly gives this handbag statement appeal.  It’s just so fun and uplifting, and the sleek gold hardware clasp looks amazing with this colour.  This Marc Jacobs leather handbag has gold hardware feet to protect its base and this, along with the cute functional key charm make this one of our favourites!  Wear it across your body for when you are busy at work or laden with shopping for a cool quirky satchel look, or by the short top handle for a more conservative work feel.
