Marni Heavy Stripe Combo Shoulder Strap: A Star in Stripes

Marni Heavy Stripe Combo Shoulder Strap

When it comes to shoppers, it’s time for canvas to move on over and make room for wool! At least that’s how I feel when I look at this Marni. While chilly weather doesn’t necessarily require a wool bag, there’s no denying that this has the right look for the season. Broad stripes give it an energized feel that I love. They’re subtly graphic – nothing too in-your-face. Then the back is like a ray of sunshine in rich, gold leather, a smart use of texture and colorblocking on the part of Consuelo Castiglioni. A busy woman herself, she knows that some days you just want an easy bag. This has an open top for quick access (it’s also the perfect size a your laptop), and a detachable interior pouch for when you’re ready to leave your wool wonder in the car and hit the town! Marni bag available at Neiman Marcusicon for $1,250.

Pair with: Play up the stripes with Vivienne Westwood’s check-print cape (on NET-A-PORTER for $640), some skinny pants, and high-heeled booties.

  1. Can people really afford to pay over a thousand for a purse these days? I can’t rub to pennies together, and the bill collectors are hounding us! More power to those who can. I like the purse. How about giving one away?
