I bought a MJ Eliz A Baby diaper bag on ebay that was listed as "gently used, perfect condition" that arrived to me fully encapsulated by mildew stench, and stained (the interior). I'm working on getting refunded, and the bag is really garbage at this point unless I can drastically lessen the stench. Any suggestions?

I saw a blog post where someone said machine washing without putting it in the dryer is ok, but do you think it'll get the smell out since I assume it's been set for years?

I wouldn’t do anything until the refund is decided. Hopefully it won’t be your problem.

Is anyone going to buy the new MJ perfume? I have no idea what it's like, but I seriously want the bottle.

I found this (nearly full) bottle of Marc Jacobs "Decadence" at the Thrift Store yesterday for $15 and I thought that it was adorable, and I even like the fragrance so I had to buy it!

Does anyone know how much it originally retailed for? I see prices all over the place on ebay!

Great find! The 1.7 oz spray bottle currently retails for $99 on the Marc Jacobs website.

I just bought my very first Marc Jacobs. I'm excited since the style I've been eyeing for a while went on sale.

I like this color and the crossbody style.

Softshot in Misty Blue :smile:

I have the softshot as well (the 21 size) in cream. You are going to love it - it fits a surprising amount for being so small! Perfect on the go bag. Enjoy! That blue is lovely!

Help me decide.
I couldn't resist buying a MJ mini multi-pocket the other day on an auction site even though I already have . The price was so low that I planned on just selling it but now that I have two I need to decide which one I keep.
The left bag in the pics is the auction bag
I'll call her AB. She has a cleaner interior and the marc Jacob's made in italy plate on the inside. The leather is nice but I think it's just basic cowhide.
The bag I have is the buttery soft leather. The suede interior is dirty and I can get it any cleaner..plus a ball point pen scribble and the inside plate just says marc jacobs.20200312_222930.jpg

If the bag is for you to carry, I vote for the buttery leather.

That is one of my absolute favorite perfume bottles! Seriously, I think it's just gorgeous, even if some might find it over-the-top. You got a good deal on it, too. :tup: Awesome find.

Just purchased this Marc Jacobs The Kiss Lock Mini Leather Tote from Nordstrom. It's beautiful, I just can't decide if I should keep it! The top handle strap drop is not long enough for me to wear this as a shoulder bag, so I'd have to wear it as a crossbody or handheld. What do you think?

I think this is quite a pretty bag, and I'd say since it's small, the handles being too short wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me, personally. A large tote is better carried on the shoulder, yes, but a small one would be perfect as a crossbody, in my opinion.
