There was a time when being associated with the 80's was a fashion faux pas. But today when I sport a somewhat side ponytail and leggings I know that the 80's are back in style. Honestly, I love the 80's and now finally am appreciating the so-called style associated with it. Marc Jacobs tends to stick to the basics, but two of the bags for fall are styled after the 80's and I am certain not everyone will want to pull it off (much like other 80's styles). The Marc Jacobs Collection Tie Tasha combines 80's flair with its soft supple leather two oversized double-color ties. While at Bergdorf Goodman, I tried this beauty on and realized 2 things: first it is not made for everyone- it is really different, second is that I love it and want it for me!! :wink: This bag is oversized, 19" x 14" x 2.5" and is accented with golden brass hardware and a golden brass chain shoulder strap. Like I mentioned before, the ties are what make this bag what it is. The two-toned ties are black and green and add the 80's touch to this bag. So if you miss the days of neon and leggings and the unforgettable side-pony, this bag may suit you perfectly. Buy it through eLuxury for $1950. Also there is a smaller size, the Marc Jacobs Collection Tie Blondie, available in brandy with double top handles for $1850 via eLuxury.

Sorry, but both of those look like nothing more than expensive pieces of crap

Danica · Aug 21st, 2006, 01:08 PM

LOL Cat!

Megs I'm sure they look better on someone and in real life.

Not a huge fan...I saw this at NM and thought that the ties would be annoying to deal with.

fendifemale · Aug 22nd, 2006, 12:14 PM
