Marni Slouchy Leather BagFor me, the name of this purse totally describes its appeal – the Marni Slouchy Leather Bag is soft, smooshy, and leather-ific. We don’t often cover Marni bags on the blog, and their line is small compared to some of the powerhouse brands like Gucci or Louis Vuitton, but seeing a piece like this only makes me think that I should find someplace to take a look at the rest of what they offer. What they’ve done with this bag is honestly kind of cool – they’ve found a way to take a bag we’ve all seen before (a slouchy, soft hobo) and make it visually interesting in its construction. Marni didn’t take the cheaters way out on this one, which would have been adding ridiculous amounts of hardware or pockets or buckles to make it different. Instead, they made something that looked innovative while still being familiar and functional. It may be my favorite bag of the new season thus far. Buy through Net-a-Porter for $1780.

    I cannot say I share the same enthusiasm for this bag. The color reminds me of camphophenic, and the strap reminds me of an senior citizen on a fixed income who buys her purses off of infomercials. As a matter of fact, the whole bag reminds me of day-time-television infomercial.

    I agree with you Free. It is way to slochy for me.

    I love it! the ruching will show nicely when the bag is more filled up. This is another one of those skin-colored bags i’ve been looking for. it’s very easy-going — very spring!

    I like the color, but it looks a little bit too much like broken elastic pants viewed from the top to me.

    I love the color, hate the weird ruching. Make the bag kinda a miss for me.
