It’s official: Marni is good again. Which is great news for me, not so great for the old pocketbook. Time for a budget adjustment! Their specialty (when they’re on a roll) is super-fun bags I love at first sight – and then forget about not terribly long after purchasing. But just as it goes with men, you know it’s the fast-burning flames that are the most exciting.
Like this net-effect top-handle. Despite the manic desire I’m experiencing right now, yes, I would recommend to wait for the sale. Too bad by then, the lust will have surely faded. Luckily, I have reason to believe this one might be playing for keeps. After all, it is black. It’s just the perforation that’s making me feel like it’s trendy – although, this is of-the-moment in a good way. Plus, this vintage shape probably has some staying power. I’m going to trust my heart, and jump on it. Let’s hope this Marni piece makes it the long haul. At Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,365.
Pair with: This will look daytime-deluxe with summer’s newly sleekified flatforms. Like Stuart Weitzman’s wicker sandal ($385), Lanvin’s python-print leather ($855), or Pour la Victoire’s bright-green sole ($250).
